DC Metro Schedule (closing, train, station)

[Baike]

Metro - Rail

I would like to know what time it will be closed on January 17. I know the website states 12 am, but I have two questions:

1) Since January 18 is holiday, will they use Saturday schedule (closed at 3 am on Sunday) on January 17?

2) What do they mean "closed"? Does it mean closing entry only, but the trains still need to run to destination, correct? If it is closed at 3 am, then someone may need to exit around 4 am?

Thanks.

It will close at 12am on Jan. 17. The Holiday doesn't matter in this case.

When Metro says "close" they mean the last train leaves the end of the line around that time. So you can sometimes still enter the station after the system is "closed". But only if the final train has not come to that station yet.
