Indeed. PATH and AirTrain are run by the Port Authority, which is a multi-state agency. The subway is run by MTA New York City Transit, which is part of the New York state government.


But of course, the MTA isn't actually part of the state government ... because nothing in NYS can actually be open and transparent.


Yes, it's one of those weird "public corporations" or something that we love so much in New York. I don't really get it.

All I know is that I pay taxes for stuff upstate, but only NYC city taxes pay for NYCT.
