Personally I think it's quite possible it'll surpass the Blue Line once complete.

I have great hopes for Expo being a real workhorse as well. There are several "destinations" along the route and density should seriously increase.
But a more complete answer is that there have been lots of delays and stoppages so far. Hopefully all worked out by this weekend, when I'll take my first ride.
