Community supported Caltrain notices, one tweet at a time

Train configuration published

Bicycle riders should be happy to learn that Caltrain has published the 36 scheduled trains that will be equipped with 2 bike cars for a total capacity of 64 bicycles.  “These trains are operated with the stainless steel, fluted-side gallery cars, and the bike cars are the northernmost car and the fourth car from the north.”

I suspect the utility of my service will decline with this new data, however I believe it will still be useful when the trains are configured differently.
