@ Prometheus The Supremo and everyone.
I think you're missing the point...
The opposition to this project hasn't seemed to care much about what colour the trains are or where they enter/leave the corridor. They hear "400 trains" and become concerned by the volume.
I really think it breaks down to two questions:
Will there be 400 trains on opening day? [NO]
and
Will there every be 400 trains in the corridor? [Only if the demand in 2031 warrants it].
When the construction is done service will run at a particular frequency and then gradually becomes more and more frequent as demand increases and equipment becomes available. It might start at every X minutes and get better from there [addressing unimaginative2's point], but we're not talking about trains every 3 minutes anytime soon if ever.
