I am taking Metro North harlem line tomorrow (Monday 11-5). How was the service/crowding on Friday and what should I expect tomorrow? Should I leave earlier because I may not get on my train due to crowds?

Thanks in advance....
On Thursday I would estimate my regular train was less than 2/3 of what it normally is. And that was a day with carpool restrictions on driving in but the gas shortages hadn't hit yet.
