No. The aim is to “increase the density of freight transportation in a particular area.” That would be maximum tonnage carried through an area over a period, eg a year. It’s possible more tonnes of independently moving wagons could move through an area over a year by being individually dispatched 24/7 in close proximity versus larger traditional freight trains that only run a few times a day.
Which would need completely different signaling systems, where sensors for sections are every few meters instead of like now having sections hundreds of meters or even kilometers long. That's investment of hundred of billions + maintenance.
In Europe we are integrating ETCS since 1996 and it is still not done.
