VRE Train Talk Alert, 3/4 2:43 pm
 

VRE Monitoring Winter Storm, No Final Decision About Service at this Time

 

As you may know, the forecast calls for winter storm overnight continuing through tomorrow. We will continue to monitor the event and will inform riders via Train Talk, website, Twitter and facebook when we do make a final decision. There are many factors to consider, however; we will make a call no later than 4am Thursday morning, if not sooner.

 

In addition, we currently have crews prepared to treat the platforms no matter the service level we provide.

 

Please exercise caution during the storm and only travel if you must.

 

Stay tuned to Train Talk for a final decision.

 

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

As the region recovers from the winter storm, VRE is running an "S" Schedule today, March 6. Only trains marked with an "S" above its train number on the published schedule will operate.

 

Crews have been working diligently to clear the platforms and will revisit stations to address any refreezing. Please exercise caution during your entire commute.
