S&P seems to be falling out of favor given how "expensive" the complete stop can be, and you always run the risk of an issue with the single bulb.
The New England region has operated this way for ages, as has CSX; was only a matter of time for it to hit the Pennsy-style ones.

My best guess is that they're all supplemental runs covered at overtime and they probably struggle to cover them Labor Day weekend, but… yeah.

Track 3 is a middle track with island platforms on both sides, so they list it as "31" and "32."
1 and 5 are outer express tracks.
2 and 4 are the through local tracks.
Short turns discharge on 32, then receive on 31 (on track 3, without physically moving).
1 _ 2-[31/32]-4 _ 5
