From WMATA:
“Today Metrorail service improved on the Red Line with trains arriving every 12 minutes, down from 15 minutes, and Yellow Line service improved with trains every 20 minutes, down from 30 minutes.
Blue, Orange, and Silver line trains continue to operate every 30 minutes, and Green Line trains are operating every 20 minutes.
At stations served by more than one line, trains arrive every 10-15 minutes. Metro will continue to improve service as crews work to make more railcars available.
Most trains are operating with six cars. Customers can expect to see some eight-car trains in service to alleviate crowding when railcar availability allows.
Also today, Metro began testing two 7000-series trains in the system. The eight-car test trains are stopping at stations but are not in passenger service.”

The Potomac Roasting Company is stocked with excellent coffee to meet almost any palate. But that’s not the only good news. We now offer free shipping for orders over $35.
The Potomac Roasting Company is a local micro-roaster specializing in artisan coffee. We precision roast high-quality beans sourced from small farms in Latin America and Africa that are owned and operated by women. We will make sure that your coffee is roasted the way you want it and delivered fresh.
Our newest coffee comes from Mbozi, Tanzania. We secured a shipment just before this small batch of delicious beans sold out. In Swahili, Usawa means balance and Kahawa means coffee. The beans are grown on small farms that are part of a cooperative promoting gender equity and market access for women. This is a smooth and balanced coffee that is sure to please.

Now, our last show may or may not have mentioned Taylor Swift, and we may have gotten into some trouble from confused Swifties who thought they scored a $15 ticket to a Taylor Swift concert.
