Through Service
A through service is a concept of passenger transport that involves a vehicle travelling between lines, networks or operators on a regularly specified schedule, on which the passenger can remain on board without alighting. It may be in form of either the following: * A service where the vehicle travels between different lines, or systems of infrastructure, for example, a through train service between the mainline and underground railways. * A service where the vehicle changes its identity en-route without requiring passengers to alight, for example, a through tram service which runs as route 1 initially, then runs as route 2 for the latter half of the journey. The term through service may be extended to have a wider meaning encompassing a route which allows the passenger to travel without alighting, for example, in a route change announcement, if a route A-B and a route B-C is combined to A-B-C, it may be described as a new "through service" between A and C.
