Nowadays during key commute hours, the N-Judah is quite a bit more crowded – often to shoulder-to-shoulder standing-room-only, or wait-for-the-next-train-because-there's-no-more-room, levels. MUNI has added extra shuttle trains that just run the busiest part of the line (https://www.hoodline.com/2016/09/new-n-judah-shuttles-aim-to-aid-morning-commute https://www.hoodline.com/2016/09/new-n-judah-shuttles-aim-to...), and the N-Judah will be the 1st line to get 3-car trains (https://www.hoodline.com/2017/02/n-judah-will-be-first-line-to-receive-new-3-car-muni-trains https://www.hoodline.com/2017/02/n-judah-will-be-first-line-...). But yes, they could run even more. And there should be far denser housing near dedicated rail lines. I'd go so far as to say all lots, statewide, that are within a 5 minute walk of a rail station should have no height or housing-type restrictions other than those required for earthquake safety. (And yes, this goes for the commuter suburbs, too. If you get a BART station, you need to accept a bunch more housing – or the trains should skip that stop.)
