Prior to entering politics, he was an engineer on the BRT els in the steam days and he allegedly operated his train too fast around a curve to the annoyance of a trainmaster who discovered Hylan reading his law books at the controls of his steam loco. The result was Hylan's firing from the job and thus Hylan had it in for all the private transit companies after that. |
