You can't get more people on a tram than you can a bus.
Each passenger requires a similar amount of space on either
vehicle and a tram with 300 people on board would be
just as crowded as a bus.


The buses currently running on that route have a maximuim capacity of 64
people. A lot less than the typical tram.

And as for squeezing 300 people into one...
