he said that they'll be running 6-car trains every four minutes or something...I suspect they'll have to run through the closed stations.

it seems logical that they would run through, but not stop, but standard logic doesn't often apply to metro

If station A is on one end of the metro, and station B is on the other end, the train must travel from station A to station B, regardless of station closures in between.

I'd assume they'd kick everyone off the train at the intersection though....although Jimax as a point about common sense != DC Metro procedure.
