While many have written about the New York City subway system, a century of published books says little about the subway as a workplace. Older books describe railroad lines and equipment and newer ones transit unions and building projects. None of this subway literature, however, portrays the motormen operating the trains and the porters cleaning over 400 stations. Railroaded describes these jobs, which the author, Fred Naiden, an award-winning Harvard-trained historian, held in the 1980s before beginning a successful second career in academia. His academic training enabled him to make comparisons between transit work today and in the past, beginning with horsecars and elevated trains.
This is the story of Naiden's tenure as NYCTA employee #4046.
Fred S. Naiden is a professor of history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the author of Soldier, Priest, and God: A Life of Alexander the Great (Oxford, 2018). He is formerly employee #4046, New York City Transit Authority.
