the port authority police emergency services unit was founded in 1983, over the objections of the port authority police management at that time. working with the non-police path railroad personnel and railroad management, who clearly recognized the need for a rapid response to path railroad emergencies and fires, a small group of port authority police officers assigned to the path command asked for, and got, a stock port authority utility truck which was converted for police emergency use. despite the continued objections of p.a. police management, the path railroad management's goal of having an "emergency response vehicle" operated by the police bore fruit. the initial team members were trained in underground rescue, extrication of passengers from path train cars and first aid, with emphasis on the procedure of lifting railroad cars from trapped persons by use of vetter air bags. prior to the path emergency unit, emergencies which occurred on the path train were handled by the local police within the jurisdictions around the path train (jersey city, new york, newark, etc.).
