Metrolink CEO steps down

Safety on Metrolink continues to make headlines here in Los Angeles as Metrolink shakes up its management.

CEO David Solow has stepped down as the head of the agency, but he has not been fired. His new title will be advisor: interagecy initiatives.

People have been pretty hush-hush about how this came about, but one article mentions that he will work on safety issues until his contract runs out in June 2010. Maybe the board just wanted to keep him on the payroll until the contract runs out, and then they can fail to renew it.

Some sources have said that the board has not been happy with his performance since the Chatsworth crash and have indicated that Solow has been since overwhelmed.

Here is a site with details about the CEO.
