(Yes, this is a Big Deal when you have a 3 minute connection to the NJT train). Realistically, how long might it be until everything on that route is V's (or newer) and the schedules can be shortened?It's like that on the R2 Wilmington. It will arrive @ Market East 5 minutes behind schedule (most likely due to being held up by the R1 being late itself), but will arrive @ Wilmington 5 minutes AHEAD of schedule. Those SL-Vs do really fly.
