But hey, free rides! Brought to you by Kevin Hart's tequila!
That's not a joke, per the actual webpage about the service changes:
I'm sure that there's a reason for all of this, for example Kevin Hart selling a tequila because there's no way anybody would laugh at him sober, but some of it seems arbitrary, sloppy or ill-conceived and some people just trying to get to work is going to be pretty unhappy.

Streamlining stations aside...it seems like they offering far less capacity than expected demand on the regional rail side. Six trains from Bryn Mawr between 7 - 10am?!? They could probably fill double that.
