You're going to have to explain this one. Shaganappi is probably the biggest disappointment of a new train station there is - literally no one uses it. What resurgence is happening there? And where exactly would you put the Westbrook station that isn't already central to all those neighbourhoods you listed? Westbrook station is a redevelopment of the transit in that area, and all buses incoming from West Calgary pretty much go through the 17th/Bow Valley artery, and people transfer to the Westbrook station.
How is that a disappointment? Especially if the master plan for the Westbrook area hasn't even broken ground yet?
