Skytrain covered in entirety both directions, including some rare crossovers due to Single Line Working because of Track Work, around Sapperton and Scott Road/Gateway.
Also the reversing siding at Waterfront, I simply got on a terminating Expo Train and did it. No Staff to turf pax off. I wasn't the only person and it seems quite common to do this.
With this in mind I also scratched in the reversing move at Production Way Uni on the Expo Line as well!
