>>1401675>S-Bahn is a joke compared to Berlin or MünchenAlmost every S-Bahn network is a joke, and I would rank Hamburg worse than Berlin, better than Munich right now

Großhansdorf branch daily ridership (2016)
>Buchenkamp: 1987 (sixth-least in the entire network)>Ahrensburg West: 2042 (fifth-least in the entire network)>Ahrensburg Ost: 998 (second-least in the entire network)>Schmalenbeck: 1149 (third-least in the entire network)>Kiekut: 790 (least in the entire network)>Großhansdorf: 1977 (seventh-least in the entire network)That makes it 8943 daily riders of the branch. An eight-car DT4 train has 364 seating capacity. You can fit the entirety of the Großhansdorf branch ridership in 25 trains and not one of the riders would have to stand. That's eight hours worth of 20-minute frequency.
