The baseline service schedule shows trains from 5am to midnight, which young family or not, is a large portion of the 24-hour day with disruption. That's not including the overnight freight to and from Elmira.

The original functional design plans called for a noise barrier to be built between Quiet Pl and Bearinger based on noise studies that were done. The new plans also call for noise barriers to be constructed in the text, but not shown in the drawings.

OMG  YES!!, if ION actually starts at 620am on Sundays I am going to be super happy.  Currently I bike home from work on Sundays because it either that, or sit at work for an extra hour, walk 20 min to catch first 8 and get home a full TWO hours after my shift ended.
