MRT to dispatch ‘express train’ during rush hour

We’re not taking credit for this, but we did recommend this solution a few weeks ago. Just saying.

“The Metro Rail Transit (MRT) will deploy express trains beginning Wednesday, May 7,” reports Mary Rose A. Hogaza in Manila Bulletin.

The Express Train experiment will run for two weeks; an express train will be deployed alternately with regular trains.

The schedule and stops will be as follows:

1. From 7am to 9am: North Avenue, Quezon Avenue/Kamuning/Cubao (alternating), Buendia, Ayala, Magallanes and Taft

2. From 5pm to 7pm: Taft, Magallanes/Ayala/Buendia (alternating), Cubao, Kamuning, Quezon Avenue and North Avenue
