The 1981 Annual Report is a compendium and analysis of rapid rail transit accident/incident and casualty statistics reported by the eleven rapid rail transit properties in the United States during 1981. The data used to compile this Annual Report has been taken from accident/incident information voluntarily submitted by the eleven rapid to the Federal Railroad Administration through its accident/incident reporting system. The eleven rapid rail authorities included in this report are: 1) BART - Bay Area Rapid Transit District; 2) CTA - Chicago Transit Authority; 3) GCRTA - Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority; 4) MARTA - Metropolitan Atlanta Regional Transit Authority; 5) MBTA - Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority; 6) NYCTA - New York City Transit Authority; 7) PATCO - Port Authority Transit Corporation; 8) PATH - Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corporation; 9) SEPTA - Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority; 10) SIRTA - Staten Island Rapid Transit Operating Authority; and 11) WMATA - Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority.
