Re: (erielack) What was the Shopper's Special...?



There will be no need to deadhead cars up to Scranton on Friday
night; the cars for the weekday commuter service between Scranton and
Hoboken will be based in Scranton.  After all, they'll start running
about 3:30am to get people to work.

Several advocacy groups have urged that service operate at least
every three hours throughout the day and on weekends, not just during
rush hour.  Having spent the money to rebuild the railroad, it seems
silly not to USE it!
