[RP TownTalk] Marc train tips for a rookie?

Fri Aug 5 15:27:58 UTC 2016

I feel like Metro is more cost effective if you have to travel further then
Union Station.   It is also more flexible in terms of frequency of trains.

>> #1 is to note the "L" on the schedule for most trains that stop at

>> from the printed departure time ours you're likely to miss the train!
>>
>> MARCTRACKER.com is a good way to see where your morning train is, and if
>> it's on time or not. (Trains normally do run pretty much on time)

>> If you have a monthly pass ($135), that also gets you *free* rides on all
>> buses, Metrobus or county bus like "The Bus" our "Ride-on".
>>
>> If you don't have a ticket in advance you can pay the conductor when
>> boarding here ($5) but get your return ticket inside Union Station to
>> avoid
>> $3 surcharge that applies if you buy from the conductor.

>> That's about all I can think of off the top of my head....
