Some tracks are available for service during the day Saturday and Sunday but not available evenings and midnights because some snowbirds are needed to run during the day......the winter operations plan calls for 4 car G OPTO to Court Sq. only since at times trains are laid up on express tracks between Roosevelt and Continental and the local tracks can't handle more than 3 services (E/F/R). Maybe not during the day, but around 8 or 9 PM layups begin on those express tracks. Same goes for AM put ins. M-F they come out earlier than on S and S......OPTO M was not. 8 car trains were ran so conductors were hired, usually construction flaggers (who were thrilled to be working the road) whose Go related jobs were cnacelled due to Plan 4. |
