And it was not a joke. As a result, following this rush hour roundtrip, I will present a rare oddity. I would get a roundtrip on the R179 (M) Train in its first day of revenue service. When I get to the R179 (M) Train ride, I will go into more detail about how it all came about and why it was happening. But until then, I hope you guys enjoy this scheduled rush hour roundtrip combo with the (2) Line as I whit your appetite for the long awaited R179 (M) Train roundtrip.
