Great photos. Thanks for capturing this. I hope you will keep us updated with how ridership (and the journey time) is doing in the months and years to come.


You said service had ended at 3 PM for Shabbat. Is this only for this week or will it be the standard schedule? Does this also apply to the buses?

I understand that during Shabbat, Jews try not to use electricity or drive their cars. Is this correct (or is that only for the Orthodox)? If so, why would transit services end when people would be more likely to use it? Does it have to do with the bus and train drivers?

I am just curious, and would like some insight on this. Thanks.
