Are they using it as a switcher?

Looks like they want to build a GO line along the York Sub. Or buy it out all together.

It would be cheaper to build one land in each direction and have a dedicated bus lane.

Either in the center median or on the edges.

You are misunderstanding. They want to buy only the portion of the York sub that the Kitchener line already uses and divert freight onto a new line that follows highway 407.

The end goal would be to also get CP on board. This is basically another attempt at The Missing Link.

Judging by the new doors, it actually appears it's coming back south to GO.

No it has no number boards and very obviously is on its way to be rebuilt
