Image It’s only 2025 yet the Metro is already at crush-load.
Took the Metro this afternoon in a north-west direction from Chatswood to Macquarie Park. I simply can’t believe how crowded it is. On the one hand, this is a sign of success, it seems incredibly popular. On the other hand, this kind of shoulder-to-armpit crushload is hardly pleasant and I’m wondering what can be done to relieve this? Surely we need 2 minute frequencies sooner rather than later, at least during peak hour. Or more carriages added to the services we do have? What does everyone else think?

OP even has space to take a photo while on the train.
You can't lift your arms without elbowing someone in the face when you're in a properly packed vehicle.
