When I take the LRT after a Flames game, two trains (one North and one South) clears out most of the platform. So that's about 1500 passagers. Let be generous and bump that up to 4 cars or 3000 passengers. That still leaves 15,000 people who walk or car it. Not sure how forcing the majority to take transit will work. How do you get enough LRTs on the line? There's no siding tracks near by...

It's laughable to think one train each way clears the Saddledome crowd after a Flames game. Or that the next 1-2 trains each way aren't also jammed.
