Ah didn't realize line 1 trains were running under one person operations, that would make it difficult to implement and do so with that low of a headway.
Sorry I didn't make it make sense, what I was saying is trains would go around all the way to the University side from Yonge and then terminate at lower bay. hitting all the stations south of line 2 downtown.
