Re: V Running/D Local on Weekends

The purpose of pointing out how many concourse riders benefit from the D being express was not that these people are necessarily benefiting by the D being local- It is to point out that to the (admittedly slight) majority of the Concourse riders, it doesn't matter whether the D is local or express.

To ALL CPW riders, it DOES matter whether the D is local or express. To ALL 1 line riders, who deal with overcrowding (and the delays caused by it), which is at least in part due to the horrendous CPW line service, it DOES matter whether the D is local or express.
Adding 6 minutes to the round trip travel time of the D won't have any real effect on service frequency. Perhaps you would need to keep another train running which would otherwise be stored for the weekend, although I suspect such would not be necessary. You could easily move around crew breaks so that you wouldn't need to have any more crews assigned. During nights, neither an extra crew, nor an extra train would be needed.
