I think this data fails to recognize the significance of hybrid work set ups. Fridays have significantly less people downtown. So do Mondays. The variance between days is far larger than pre-Covid. Our data collection has not be updated to report on that variance
Anecdotally the 3 car midweek trains are as packed as they were pre-four car train.
