News for MARC Commuters

Good news for our sister Lines on the MARC:
Weekend Service on the Penn Line Starts December 7, 2013

 The first-ever weekend MARC Train service will start on the Penn Line on Saturday, December 7. The new service, part of nearly $1.5 billion in transportation investments for the Baltimore metropolitan area that was announced by Governor Martin O'Malley last month, will provide nine round trips on Saturdays and six round trips on Sundays. The Governor also announced plans to add 10 new energy-efficient diesel locomotives. These state-of-the-art locomotives, part of the state's overall program to increase the capacity and reliability of MARC Train Service, are more powerful than those they are replacing, have better fuel economy, and meet stringent new federal emission requirements.
