The danger, of course, is that they would test it out on a weekend, find that it was possible (I'm having trouble imagining why it would prove not to be possible on the weekend), lay out cash, and then find it wasn't possible in rush hours after all.

You seem to be forgetting the point I made in my opening post to this thread. WMATA has an insufficient fleet size to fill an all 8 car train time sheet at the alleged 26 train per hour limitation.

Based on the 7k car procurement and 1, 4 and 5k car scrapping schema WMATA will still be unable to fill that all 8 car train time sheet when all is said and done.
