>> every subway drivers nightmare. someone jumping in front of your train and being killed. >> she was walking on the platform and then she jumped right in front of my train. >> he was so haunted by this woman he would see her two or three times a week. >> every time the lightning would flash i would see a vision of her. >> that has to be horrifying. >> is he registered to vote? that's completely insane. >> i'm trying to find the silver lining here. >> that was really worth. >> all my daughter's birth pictures were on the third floor.

>> jermaine is a subway driver and he loved the job but he told me about the darker days, every subway drivers nightmare, someone jumping in front of your train and being killed. this happened to jermaine in august of 2009, he was pulling into a train station in queens when he saw one on the platform walking and just as he was pulling up she jumped. he said the whole experience was horrifying. >> she was walking on the platform and then she jumped in front of my train. >> i put on the emergency brake, about four cars down i happen to find her underneath my train. >> he got out of the train and saw the woman. >> the lady was her, she was bleeding from her for head all the way down. she just wanted to be alone. she

wanted to die in peace. >> he call for help and they are able to extract the woman. >> they came and took her from underneath the train. the expense was horrific. >> it has haunted him ever since. even to this day. >> that night when i went home there was a thunderstorm that night. lightning, every time the lightning would flash i would see a vision of her. that has stuck with me day in and day out since the accident happened. i think of her very often. >> he was so haunted by this woman he would see her two or three times a week. he would see her in his sleep. he sleep. he ended up having to go to a psychologist and work through the issue. three months later he was able to go back to work. >> it was so frightening and scared at work. i more conscious of everyone on the platform. especially those very close to the platform. coming in with the train with my fear -- >> but then april of this year a drunk person was teetering

around the edge and fell. he got off the train and followed the blood trail. >> that is how i found him. i followed a trail of blood and found out where he was located. seeing a bone sticking out of the man's arm was not an everyday occurrence for a train operator. >> this time he survived. i asked jermaine why not quit? what you still do this job? >> it was a dream of mine since i was little kid. i wanted to be a train operator. i did not want to give up my dream. i wanted to start a career and and my career as a train operator. >> he wants to retire as a subway driver and he still has 15 years to go. >> so on balance he loves his job. >> minus a psychological problem associated with it. >> that has got to be horrifying. i can imagine. >> obviously suicides do happen but over one third of the subway deaths are accidental.

unfortunately unfortunately my friend, 2013 fell into the track and was hit and i. there has to be something that prevents people from falling on the track. >> they can put up barriers that oh only open when the subway doors open. that way people are protected. the problem is a cost about 1,000,000 dollars per station. >> so not only that but the perspective is, you look at your pinsir later some places with gates. but if you look at the london underground in the mta, no barriers but four times the people kill themselves in london than in york. it's high, it's heifetz one. but to have a massive change like that i don't think you can afford it. >> a huge announcement today from governor christie. so big that we have team chaser coverage. jim mcsweeney, host of new jersey now and my nine. i want to start with diana. you were there at the statehouse when the governor came out and told us. >> first it started off as a press conference, then a turn to

a press announcement, but really governor christie at the new jersey state house it was a. >> we're going to begin immediately a complete renovation of the statehouse. a complete exterior renovation, complete interior renovation, and restoration. >> governor christie announced a $300 million renovation for the new jersey state house. something he made a point to say is a necessity but also something only second term governors can do. it was quite the builder. governor christie christie has been in the headlines at least since november 8 with us all speculating what could be next for christie in a trump white house. today we are getting ready for the big reveal but really take a listen for yourself, it was boring. >> every time i put out a release on an announcement, please do not get breathless let this is the moment i'm going to be announcing and leaving. it's just not going to be. and by the way, if i were

announcing i was leaving i would do something else i suspect i would not be doing it here or by myself. right, so everyone is just get logical about this. and lower the hysteria. >> here to share his perspective on the event, the host of nj now. >> hi jim. i'm. >> i'm sitting here having seen it, the big reveal that is still relevant. and by revealing he still relevant he showing he's not. >> a first while he lectured the press at the end instead of saying it's your fault-year-old here. he obviously knew that by not saying anything amidst all of the speculation of what is going to happen especially with vice president-elect pence same be ready. >> clearly he just wanted have some fun. is this beneath the governor? even this governor the seem to be over-the-top mocking. >> six months ago this man was running for president of the united states. six months later he is talking about redoing the hvac system in the state house

and shoring up the foundation. amidst all of the majesty and pageantry of an announcement under the statehouse dome with the flakes on either side, come on. >> i thought what we saw was a man was completely humbled who is just making light of a horrible situation for himself. it's embarrassing for him after supporting trump by not having anything to move to the white house for. i think governor christie was making light of it. i don't think use pointing the finger at the press prayed he was joking with the press. >> i don't know that anybody there felt that way. maybe. >> what. maybe. >> what is he getting from making fun of the press? i don't think his tough guy attitude is working anymore. i think people are sick of it. if you look on twitter people are like really, again question, again? i think people are over it. >> he may very well still be an apparent decision in the running for a position. we don't know. this may be his way of giving new jersey his goodbye present.

>> goodbye president present? tearing up our statehouse? >> i think there's a greater point, he had the entire press corps which he detests in a room that was on a shaky foundation. he he could have seen them all disappear on the floor under the statehouse. i blamed the shaky state house that he predicted. >> doesn't get anything or is this a? >> this is it. he's going to ride it to the end. he's not even going to be in his chair when it ends. he's can gonna be some place outside the statehouse. >> wow. wow. >> i'm at the southern tip of the state of new jersey, in at the point in sunset beach. i spent the day with former mayor of the city of cape may, bob and i'm tracking down with him some hidden history that mother nature has just uncovered. i'm off the beach right now because

it is storming and storms are actually the reason why i am here. around 100 feet of a 100-year-old railroad track here on the beach have surfaced from shifting sans from a storm. they had been buried for decades. before that they made a brief appearance for a couple of days in 2014. there is a sand is a sand plan here that operated from 1905 until 1936. the mistry tracks use to transport sand to company for processing. then there is at least 100 more feet of beach into the delaware bay which is pretty crazy when you think about beach erosion. you can see the trains were not really writing on water as they would b be doing if it were goig on today. robert l wirth had copies of aerials from the old plant. you can see them hand written from 19 oh eight he brought them over to me and we check them out.

bob told me what therefore. >> they would wash it, they would send it up to the area of millville and they had a glass factory. they used the sand from here which was a fine sand. that's what they wanted. >> i think i'm on the right track. >> these beaches much like our shoreline in jersey has been eroding and drastically over the past century. you can even even see the remains of a world war i ship out here which is pretty crazy. >> the water from the 1920s. this is a world war i ship and you can see it's a concrete ship and it floated out off the chain and sunk into the sand. they tried to remove it for five times and they can't. it's just to be there forever i think, it's pretty crazy. >> and that's what gonna happen with the train tracks, they're just gonna leave them and they'll be there forever? >> the. >> the problem is they appear and disappear so frequently among have been gone for so long that trying to remove them was the team is assembled to get out or they might not even be

visible at that point. >> is he gonna monetizes? that's no more dangerous than the jetty sticking out the rock and kids can get heard on that. leave it monetize it, charges some ticket. >> tickets. >> it's become a hot tourist attraction here. people are walking up and down and checking it out. the track looks like it's running directly into the ground, cool piece of new jersey history. >> it's also proof of global warming. >> the sand? >> oh god. yeah, anyway. >> i'll catch you later. >> holiday miracle right here in the garden state. a pomeranian maltese mix made her way to thousand miles away from home. >> how do we know this was not an elaborate ruse.
