We begin with |
Disinfecting. |
|
VRE railcars are disinfected twice a day, after morning and evening service, with special attention given to frequently touched surfaces. However, overnight cleanings now use acidic electrolyzed water, a potent yet nonirritating disinfectant that kills resilient viruses and bacteria. The hypochlorous acid produced by electrolyzing the water can be 100 times more powerful than the hypochlorite ion in bleach, yet it does not irritate eyes and skin.

Then, we conduct crew |
Temperature Checks. |
|
Our crews remain focused on safely delivering riders to their destinations. As such, crew temperature checks are performed prior to the start of each shift, and in fact, most crew members actually have their temperatures checked twice before boarding a train. Conductors are also limiting interactions with passengers, riding in the vestibules for the majority of each trip. |
