Hi,

Can someone please tell me how many trainsets are in use on a daily basis on the West Coast Express commuter service? I know there are 5 inbound and 5 outbound services a day, but do they use 5 trainsets or does some equipment deadhead to form another trip?

Ta,

Damian

West Coast Express operates Monday to Friday only during peak commuter periods. All five trains originate in Mission in the morning, and terminate there in the evening. There is no eastbound service in the morning, or westbound in the afternoon.
