Note: a conversation heard between E800-03 & N800-03 saying D706 is going to start running 7 days a week but no start date was mentioned.
Yes, we will have daily D705s and D706s. As soon as we see some extra power.

For now D705-04 will have 3211/738.

With this change, it is effectively undone! Only real difference left is the symbol, which changes some of how it is reported and who in the company "owns" the train in terms of budgeting and things, but that's about it.

Can't wait for the day when they decide to run a train to Toledo again. I think this system probably works better but it'll be one of those "everything that is old is new again" situations lol
