God what on earth are they waiting for...
Rip the bandaid off.
Both could be serviced just fine with GO-RER.
York U station should be moved a bit north to Steeles is all.

I still keep getting mixed messages whether Stony Creek will open in 2019 or in 2021.
Good to hear 2019 is still on track. (if it is.)
No.By "Hamilton-Stoney Creek" do they mean the Confederation GO Station? So I assume the additional track between West Harbour and Confederation would have to be installed by then? Is this the first time were hearing the specific timeframe for service to Confederation?
I'll finally get a clear answer when I go to these PICs (where I will bring up the 2018 Niagara Summer Seasonal stopping at West Harbour).

Rich Hill and Milton?good. now for the other two.
I hope something can be done about York U GO.
Like bull-dozing this soon-to-be superfluous station stop?
I was going to say Brampton but I want Richmond Hill done. The DRL long is great (especially if extended to Keele) but the Yonge line will not be fully uncongested until the Rich Hill has all day service or RER.Rich Hill and Milton?
September is the date for Stouffville's weekend service to start.
No word on anything for Kitchener, unfortunately.

Any talk of weekend service on Stouffville or Kitchener line come january? The mid-day service should definitely be extended to Mount Joy for Stouffville.
I like bulldozing because it precludes back-sliding which when politics is involved can happen all too often.Bulldozing it would be wasteful gravy spending. Let nature take its course and slowly reclaim the area. If need be use it as a research study on "what would happen if humanity disappeared"
On Sunday, avoid traffic and parking and take GO Transit to the Annual Toronto Santa Claus Parade. GO Transit will offer special train service on the Milton, Kitchener, Stouffville and Barrie lines. Lakeshore East and West will run regular service every 30 minutes. Special fares will be available, $5 for kids/seniors, $10 for adults and $20 for groups (conditions apply). Don’t forget, UP express is always an option to get to and from downtown.
No.
They mentioned the 2019 timeframe back in 2015.
They keep mixing up 2021/2019 in subsequent announcements (including a webpage that got retroactively edited from 2021 to 2019 in front of my eyes) so I'm keeping a hawk eye on Metrolinx "2019" versus "2021" where it applies to a GO train station located near Stoney Creek (Confederation GO).
- Earlier, it was 2019.
- One time it was 2021 then re-edited to 2019. (press release that got edited)
- Subsequent, it was 2021 but it might pertain simply to Confederation-to-StCat (not Hamilton-to-StoneyCreek)
- Now it's 2019.
I'll finally get a clear answer when I go to these PICs (where I will bring up the 2018 Niagara Summer Seasonal stopping at West Harbour).
The fuzz that keeps coming over the last 2 years, up might be train-vs-bus. Very interested in finding out. It's possible they might do a GO bus service for 2019 and a GO train service by 2021.
REAL Fare Integration and informing York U students probably, whom probably are terrified by the extra travel time and fare.
Goodness, I think I'm a public transit convert, at least intercity.
