The shuttle train now goes in single direction.
====================
Previous Configuration
====================
Departure
Gate 1-20 -----> Gate 40+

Arrival
A arrival train is always arrival, and departure is always departure, enabling "back-tracking" within the terminal, with 6 cars (or 8) 1 long train
====================
Current Configuration
====================
Departure
Gate 1-20 -----> Gate 40+

Arrival
the train switch direction at both end and serve the opposite side traffic, and the number of cars has reduced to 4, enabling higher frequency (but eliminating the back-tracking offer)
