Daily News has a list of proposed MTA Budget Cuts:

Here are the ones relevant to Metro-North riders.
I have to admit, compared to some of the other cuts which reduce or eliminates subway and bus service, we would be relatively unscathed:

  • Raise booze, soda and snack prices on Metro-North Rail Road to tie them to the consumer price index.
  • Cancel a program to allow Metro-North riders to buy tickets on board with credit and debit cards.
  • Eliminate the Metro-North toll-free customer information center.
  • Eliminate 11 Metro-North train car cleaning positions.
