After that, and by that time, the Kitchener Line should be electrified by GO; and then if GO's service isn't yet at half-hour frequency or something (!), we could look at having a separately branded service with EMU's.
Right. This is what I was thinking, too. Add decent bus service, subsidize it if necessary, and then consider adding train service in the future if GO doesn't provide sufficient frequency.
