Metrolink San Bernardino Line Express Train Skips Fontana

The overtake happens on the siding just after Covina Station.

I don't really take a lot of videos. My cell phone camera sucks.

According to the schedule, it looks like these express train will overtake (going in the same direction) another local Metrolink train. You should get that on video, first time in So Cal. that this has happened. Where did you overtake another train at?

@rms492 305 had some time added to its scheduled run time for this express. Most trains take about 6 minutes go travel between Covina and Baldwin Park, but 305 takes 14 minutes. So eight minutes of added delay between those two stations.

305 stops at Covina at 6:15AM and then moves out of the station and sits around for a few minutes. Then the express stops at Covina at 6:19AM and then takes off.
