8-Car G Train - How Do We Keep It?

Man it sure was nice riding the G train yesterday. The 8-car train was sweet. How do we keep it?

I think they are running full size 8 car trains, instead of running more 4 car trains.

...i.e. it is a tradeoff.

As the rideship of the G train grows, folks are requesting more service:

Politicians are getting on board:

MTA is saying they will improve the service:

The NYT is saying that service improvements may come as a result of changing riding demographics, not just increased "numbers"
