I don't get how closing stations, especially regional rail stations, expedites travel when larger than usual crowds are expected. 🤨Same number of people want to go to the celebration, but you've now concentrated them into fewer stations. And for the suburban stations (not Suburban Station :) ) you lose the parking capacity of the closed stations, unless you run shuttle buses from closed stations to open ones.

And the reduction of frequencies means the trains that do run are more crowded. Why??
