Friday was the last day of free SunRail service and the commuter rail system saw a record 17,110 boardings.
The average up until yesterday was around 10,000 boardings.
Paid service begins on Monday, which will reduce the number of boardings and hopefully allow the trains to run on schedule.

It may have just been late 🙂
I saw the train go through Ivanhoe Village last night around 9:30. I didn’t know it ran that late.
WOW.
