You want people getting off at hub stations and disappearing. Use unique or rare stations as hubs rather than C or T when possible. Do you have some that are running empty? Why? Can you rework a station/transfer points to fix it? Occasionally pause and look at your trains. Maybe you are using the X as a hub, and people transfer to the Y, but if there are way more Y passengers in the network, make the Y the hub and have them transfer to the X instead. Then check that you are optimized for that. It's not like + is always popular, but in each game have a look to see what special most passengers are heading for. I'm not certain of this, but it seems that some specials are far more popular than others in any given game. (See comments about loop routes down below for more on this) So if Blue and Red line both go to X, then a person on Blue Line heading to X who arrives at an intersection with the Red Line will stay on Blue Line if it has fewer stops on its way to X, but they will transfer to Red Line if it goes to X more directly. Essentially, people will take the route with the fewest number of stops. Force them to do this where you want it done and where you can optimize things. Where they get off and how they transfer is within your control. A person on Blue line trying to get to the Diamond will get off to transfer if the Blue line doesn't go to the Diamond. They are destinations, and people will travel across your network to get to them. Even if you have to zigzag a line quite badly to get from CCCT to CCTC, do it. If you can make it CCTC instead, then many passengers will get off at the T, and you (might) have room to pick up at the 3rd C.

A train going through CCCT is going to be full by the time it gets to the third C, because people at C stations NEVER want to go to another C. I'll post in revisions, so when I change stuff I'll add a V1: or V2: type tag in front.ДЄlternate station types along a line as much as possible.

I might say 'there are Z passengers building up as the S', which means there are a bunch of Z symbols piling up on the Square station, showing you that there are lots of people at the Square that want to go to the Z (be it Diamond, Plus, whatever).Д®DIT: as I learn and receive feedback I'm going to update this.

I also talk about 'T passengers' or 'X passengers' - I'm referring to their destination. I just use X Y and Z to denote unique special stations, they don't really mean any one special in particular. I'm using S,C,T to denote Square, Circle, Triangle and then X,Y,Z for Special stations. Here's what I've learned over the last two weeks of playing pretty obsessively.
