The Red Line could even have a stop at American Fork frontRunner station.
They could even just have both the Blue and Red lines loop here rather than having stubbed ends. While this is more expensive, I think that ridership and the redevelopment possibilities are better while also allowing for faster train speeds.

It doesn't make any sense to send the train further to serve half as many people as are in SW SLCO.
