Crazy question to ask about commuter trains

[MetraUPWest]

On Metra all of the cab cars are ADA compliant as opposed to many of our coaches which are not. You will see a cab car right near the engine for that reason. We also have 6, 8, 9, and 10 car trains on the lines I run, so cab cars in the middle allow the train to be easily resized. Most weekend and off peak trains only run 6 cars, so you leave the extra cars behind in a yard or downtown.

On NJT they generally don't resize trains. They just run equipment dark.

For which agency? In this topic, we've mentioned several.

Most commuter agencies are a flat fare from one place to another, regardless of when the ticket is bought (as long as you buy before you get on the train).

Does the DC Metro still have "Peak Time" Fares that are higher during designated times as opposed to Non- Rush Hour Fares? ( It's been 3 years since I rode!)
