Good morning, @Metrorailinfo #wmata has begun day #3 of unannounced single-tracking. Like yesterday, there is no Metro Alert or other communication from the agency via email, social media, or in-station PIDS. Here's how this played out yesterday:
#wmata again appears to be arbitrarily cutting Silver Line service due to single-tracking which only affects the Orange Line between Cheverly and New Carrollton.
#WMATA is at this exact moment running Orange Line trains every 20 minutes.
The #wmata Silver line actually appears to be more adversely-impacted by unannounced Orange Line single-tracking between Cheverly and New Carrollton than the Orange Line itself is.
3:22pm, unannounced delays on the Orange and Silver lines continue. #wmata peak fares are in effect until 7pm.
Just like yesterday, #wmata has begun running more Silver Line trains so the line is almost back to normal, no longer running at ~20min headways as it was for most of the morning and afternoon. (Single-tracking is b/t Cheverly & New Carrollton on the Orange Line)
