   According to the report detail, there are absolutely no plans to increase   
   train length as the trains have sufficient capacity as is.  Adding capacity   
   would be a waste of money they don't have.   
      
   The report gave the layouts of every station, which in itself is interesting   
   since I don't think that kind of thing is published very often, if at all.    
   You mention entrance closings, and I wonder if any such closings force   
   passengers to double back to    
   reach the location of the train (I'd have to study each station layout plus   
   know neighborhood patterns).   
      
   Was the GG ever a real heavy hauler, such as back in the days of WW II when   
   there was more industry along its corridor?
