How current is this listing? I was wondering which variant(s) of the Arrow MU's are still in service, but this list doesn't identify them by that nomenclature.

this is as current as it gets.
the variants of the Arrow III MU's only specify whether they are single cars or married pairs.

That's the answer I was looking for.

Last summer I used the NEC line several times from Metropark to NYP when attending Yankee games. Returning to Metropark after the game got me on my way back to Virginia much quicker than waiting through stadium traffic. Depending on which train I caught, it was either a bi-level consist or Arrow III MU's. The difference seemed to be whether the train ran express or local from MET to NYP. Is this a typical arrangement? Weekend setup?

Your welcome, and yes that is the typical arrangement I believe now though Multilevel cars do both as well as the Arrows still showing up. During the midday the Comet sets will also fill in.
