LRT getting overcrowded

It's another sardine work day at Sentral LRT station.  I woke up later than usual and arrived here at 8.30 am.

It was so crowded that people had to wait one floor below because the platform was already overcrowded and there was no more place to stand. Even with the 2-3 minutes arrival of trains it didn't ease the congestion as only 3-4 people can get on at any one of the  train doors. It was that crowded. That'll teach me not to come here during peak time. :(

Luckily there was this empty train just for Sentral station to clear off the passengers. I think it comes every 10-15 minutes.

During rush hours there is an empty train for every 2-3 non empty ones, as I observed this from taman bahagia. However, they should really use more cars for the train. Putra is capable of having 4-car trains but we're only using 2 right now.
