WMATA has done some trial runs with express service on the Orange line for Nationals games this year. See http://www.wjla.com/news/stories/0406/318573.html and http://www.dcist.com/archives/2006/04/1 ... p#comments.
I was wondering if anyone, specifically Sand Box John since he has such an intimate knowledge of the system, has information about turnoffs, passing sidings, tail tracks, etc. that would facilitate express service. There don't seem to be any indicated on John's diagram, http://www.chesapeake.net/~cambronj/wma ... ic_ars.gif, but I'm not sure if that's because they don't exist or because that diagram simply omits them.
