A train behind it. But we also continue to use that technique sparingly. While we have reached our goal in terms of major subway delays, as you know, this is an incremental goal because ultimately we do not want to have long delays in the subway. I wanted to talk through some of the instances that weve experienced over the last six weeks. The first one was breda with a door malfunction. It was almost a 40minute delay, but what im excited to report is that it wasnt that visible to customers because one of the achievements of this 90day plan is we now have the embarcadero crossover fully functional. We have removed the very old legacy wiring which was creating problems with our a. T. C. S. System. So while we did have a train broken down at that platform, we were able to work around it so that customers experienced slower service, but no major stopping. On july 18, we lost the embarcadero station for most of the day due to flooding. We were performing a routine inspection and ended up wi
Presenting to the board of supervisors. We have limited switchbacks. One of the things that we were very concerned about was that we didnt impact the rest of the system. So weve tried to be very transparent about that during this overall process we have seen an overall decline in switchbacks. We have had a slight increase in deadheading, which is another technique we use if we three or four trains stacked up at the terminal, we will send one or two to kind of express past customers, knowing that there is a train behind it.
