State Sen. Rob Rolison said on Tuesday that MTA officials told him they are still waiting for a certain part to be manufactured and then delivered [to repair the out-of-service elevator at the Poughkeepsie train station], which could take several more months.

"We want to know," Rolison said in an interview at the train station, "because we're communicating this through our newsletters and social media means that 'This is what you're supposed to do,' but there's got to be some kind of end game and I haven't heard it yet."
