VRE Train - Manassas Park to Union Station - Crowded? Pros and Cons
I am looking to start taking the train to work (Manassas Park to Union). Can someone tell me how the train is like? Is it crowded in the afternoons? Is it better to drive to work? I just feel like driving and riding the train is over an hour long drive one way so it’s better to ride the train and do something with that time like read a book or catch up on things. But I want to know if the train is very crowded.

Train Service Delayed and Interrupted All Day
I already turned the bot off...
...but as many of you are aware VRE has been fucked this morning. Passengers were told to get off and take Metro at their own expense. FRC's were not issued. The afternoon is going to be a delayed hell but trains appear to be running.
Apparently, one of the trains damaged the track at Union Station so we'll be seeing shit from that all week.
