"Robert R. Kiley, who ran the MBTA in the 1970s, New York's Metropolitan Transit Authority in the '80s, and is now designated savior of the crumbling, wheezing London Underground, the oldest subway system in the world...The Tube, most Londoners will tell you, is too crowded, too expensive, and breaks down too often. And they expect Kiley to fixit."
