Meezly: zero. The REM is not running on weekends. It was scheduled not to run on weekends from late January to the summer (with a month and a half of no service all week long), and that was before all the problems that caused a shutdown, then rush hour-only service. Service now is only on weekdays, until 8:30 pm. It’s arguable that the REM has worse service than exo trains right now.

If we try out the REM this weekend for a day trip to Brossard or something, what are the chances it will bring us home? Serious question!

They could work it into their marketing. REM: Live dangerously. REM: Feeling lucky? REM: I hope you brought some water.

I’ve heard it said that REM stands for Rentrer En Marchant
