Holy shit, you guys. This is actually looking like a decent weekend to ride the Metro. I mean, we deserve it, right? Just look at what we had to put up with this week.

Oh but there’s a caveat: there’s still going to be scheduled track work on the Red Line. Sorry, Red Line, you just can’t catch a break, can you? Anyway, a look at what’s going on:

Red Line

Trains every 8-15 minutes.

Red Line trains will operate as follows throughout the weekend:

• Between Shady Grove and Glenmont: every 15 minutes.
• Between Grosvenor and NoMa-Gallaudet: every 8-10 minutes Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. only

Work Performed: Rail tie renewal between Twinbrook and Shady Grove, fence replacement and lighting upgrades between Rhode Island Avenue and NoMa-Gallaudet.

Orange Line

Orange Line trains will operate every 16 minutes throughout the weekend. Normal service is every 12 minutes.

Work Performed: Platform rehabilitation, rail tie, fastener, insulator and grout pad renewal between Stadium-Armory and Cheverly.

And that’s it! Celebrate by watching the Nats beat the Giants.
