City of Edmonton removing some train cars on Valley Line LRT

Don’t love these stories. Fodder for the haters. Who cares if 20 or 17 cars. Shouldn’t be a story.

But makes people go “what?! Less ridership?? These stupid trains that no one uses!!!”

Also not fond of Edmonton Transit Riders (ETR) thinking the sky is falling...

One LRT car can still hold up to 200 riders.

I would take frequency over long trains any day of the week.

According to the report the frequency will remain the same so honestly I'm okay with that. There are a few times when I'm riding the train that it is pretty empty so I get it, they don't need two trains that's okay. And the nice part is, I'm pretty certain if the trains are getting too busy and too full they will start re-adding additional cars.
