WATCH OUT, VRE RIDERS. There's a service disruption planned for tomorrow that will affect both lines into the District.

In the morning, the Manassas Line will terminate at a temporary station near the Van Dorn Street Metrorail stop, just after VRE's Backlick Road station, from which riders can continue their trek into the city. Trains will pick passengers up in the same spot in the evenings. (There's more from VRE's site, including timetables, here.)

The Fredericksburg Line will end its run at the Franconia-Springfield station in the mornings, then originate there in the evenings at the regularly scheduled stop times for that station. (Get more from VRE's site here.)

VRE says it instituted the one-day change to allow for track signal testing.
