Re: Olympic Park Timetable

What has queuing trains at Olympic Park for the cessation of today's matches
have to do with trains queuing from Sydney Terminal back to Summer Hill?

Olympic Park platform 1 will put through about 15 trains/hour max. when
shifting a crowd.  Sydney Terminal can handle 15 trains/hour as can the up
line from Olympic Park.  If the trains were banked from Sydney Terminal
there appears to be a reason other than pre-queuing at OP.

Anyone know?
