[QUOTE]Originally posted by Vincent206: [QB] There may be some Cascades schedule changes coming even before the Pt. Defiance Bypass is finished. Currently train 509 leaves Seattle at 530pm, arrives Portland at 900pm and terminates in Eugene at 1145pm. The train is very well patronized between Seattle and Portland, but the trip from Portland to Eugene is very lightly used. WSDOT/ODOT are considering terminating 509 in Portland, providing a bus connection to Eugene and then offering an early morning southbound train from Portland to Eugene using the 509 trainset from the previous day. Currently there is an imbalance of service between Portland and Eugene. Northbound trains depart Eugene at 530am, 900am and 1244pm (Starlight); southbound trains depart Portland at 225pm (Starlight), 615pm and 910pm. If the change is made, the southbound departures be scheduled at about 600am, 225pm and 615pm. Northbound departure times would remain close to what is currently offered because the early morning southbound train from Portland would arrive in time to turn for the 900am northbound departure.
