The headway is already 30 seconds in modern underground systems. But a train will transport 1500 people instead of a mere 16.. Edit: apparently in the Crossrai

But a train will transport 1500 people instead of a mere 16..
Edit: apparently in the Crossrail it will be every 2.5 minutes, but I remember that in Moscow it is every minute.
- Patrick_Devine 8y agoI'm not aware of any underground (or above ground) system that has a 30 second headway unless you're talking about a gondola which is more close to the capacity that this system can handle. Yes, trains can hold more, but that's not the point of this system. If you build a 1500 person train, you now have to build the stations and platforms to accommodate those kinds of crowds.
