The "expansion" = trips out to the Rosewood luxury hotel while families in Escondido Village have to transfer to get to Palo Alto Caltrain/Stanford shopping mall and employees have transfer and wait longer. These changes are - despite everything else you hear - most likely a stop on the road to a much more scaled-down "service."
