I like the increased fare idea, it would likely help fend off the "too expensive" arguments. Green line generally serves the higher nightlife areas, so it's no surprise that it carried more than the trains. I really wish they'd cut train sizes down for this service (for heavy rail). It doesn't make sense to run 6 car trains all night when you could get away with 2 or 4. I think utilization will increase over time as well. "Build it and they will come" comes into play with things like this. It's good they're giving it a year, that's probably a good enough amount of time for people to get used to it and get comfortable enough to justify a big stink should they try to pull out after the trial is up. I'd like to see this survive, and I suspect it will (I just hope it's not wishful thinking).
