Helsinki commuter rail
[edit]This example seems unnecessary, or at least unnecessarily detailed 142.254.47.61 (talk) 07:36, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
I agree. It's just an example of express/limited stop service. To my understanding skip-stop is where there the two (or more?) relations serve an approximately equal number of stops to keep the headway, only the skipped stops differ. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.199.3.165 (talk) 10:24, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
It also mentions G and R trains are example of a skip-stop pair. There is no G train. I deleted the section. It was taken from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helsinki_commuter_rail#Schematic_of_the_lines --Long live Hank (talk) 16:59, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
History
[edit]There's reference made to Peter Witt implementing skip-stop on the Cleveland streetcar network after he took office in 1910. And the reference even mentions that it was the second time it had been attempted.[1]
