at present, BART runs extra rush-hour trains on only one line, from Concord through SF to Daly City. All other East Bay lines run on 15-minute headways all day; they just run longer trains (9 or 10 cars).

So the train leaving Fremont at 8, arriving in SF at 8:50, is guaranteed to be at least a triple-header.
