So theyre trying to get more buses, more trains on the market frankfurt line, the broad street line at least during the rush hour commute so that can you get to where you need go. But you also need to be prepared. This is what theyre telling us, that the Regional Rail trains sh the ones they have because theyre going to be fewer of them that you may experience a situation where the train goes right by because it is so full, especially as its coming into center city for the morning commute.
