  1. book their tickets for local trains does not work on Musk's Boring Company Proposes High-Speed Underground Subway To Dodger Stadium (geekwire.com) · · Score: 1

    book their tickets for local trains at X time does not work.
    Right now the local trains work with tickets have no fixed time and trains run at head ways from each 2-3 min each to 15-60 min.
    and after events / games they run on load and go no fixed times.

    Book in advance with gates can jam up line / lead to people getting crushed. In some places right after an big event they just make the gates go to open and do quick checks of tickets.

    What if you get stuck in line getting out and miss the time? get there before your time? With mass people it's better for the on site staff to just use load and go vs dealing with people needing to back out from the gate find staff to help them and then wait.

    Even going in if say to have an transfer that can get backed up as well.
