Some would like to see the train’s hours expanded to accommodate the many night time events along it's route.
And while the Rail Runner is the little engine that could run at night, Santa Feans are worried it won’t—at least not enough.I agree. Someway they have to find a way to accommodate the evening cultural commuters. I think it'd be a win - win situation for all involved.
That’s why Reddick, along with her husband, film editor Giuseppe Quinn, launched a Facebook campaign to pressure the state to expand the train’s hours to allow for evening cultural events. [...]
Reddick and Quinn don’t have specific demands, but they suggest a single late night train, perhaps timed for when the bars close or in sync with the last flight arriving into the Albuquerque airport.
“If you build it, they will come,” Quinn says, referring to the night-rider market. “When you live in a community that has trains, you know when that last train is, you know how long you have to get to that train or else you’re stranded. You build your life around it.”
