Description:

A reminder to Brunsiwck Line passsengers -- due to last night's service disruption and Federal Railroad Administration required off duty time for train crews, the following changes will be necessary Friday afternoon:

Train 873 (3:30pm departure) will be cancelled. Passengers will be accommodated on Train 891 (3:45pm departure), which will add stops at Kensington, Barnesville, and Point of Rocks. Passengers for Brunswick will be transported from Point of Rocks to Brunswick by Frederick Transit bus. The EPTA bus to West Virginia stations will meet Train 891 at Point of Rocks and West Virginia passengers will board it there. The EPTA bus will not stop in Brunswck.

Train 871 (the Friday-only 1:30pm departure from Union Station) will operate. We made the decision to shift train crews to operate this train and cancel Train 873 given that this is the start of a holiday weekend and many of our passengers will want to head home early.

We appreciate your understanding and patience yesterday evening and thank you for riding MARC.
