It is a shame it took so long to upgrade all of the stations, but obviously there was much work to be done.
But you're quite right: a 25% increase in capacity without sacrificing frequency - this is a big deal for commuters. This will be great even for irregular events like the surge of people after a Flames game. Each train can potentially take nearly 200 more people off of the platform than currently.
