For the last order BBD built delivered about 100 cars to GO in 2018, and I believe the lead time was less than a year.
There's also the locomotive situation, but I would expect those are fairly well standardized as well.
GO Transit is the biggest customer for the MPI MPXpress locomotives. There should be no real manufacturing challenges, just the order lead time.
