Adding those extra 2 tracks under CP and CN Control will allow GO to operate all day service with little problems.
The problems are today as as well down the line are how CP/CN are to stay on thier 2 tracks in the station area without going from side to side crossover.
The Geoegetown line for CN starts on track 1&2 at Halton Juction going east. It use track 3 & 2 West of Brampton Station that is in place at this time.
Will use track 3 & 2 at Mount Pleasent when every the 3rd track get built for this station. Very little room to put a 4th track in and it would become track 1. All 3 tracks at MP can be used by GO.
Bulding a new 2 track bridge across the Credit River at Georgetown will not be cheap to keep GO on the north side at Geoegetown.
The same can be said about adding a 3 track at Brampton Station.
The Milton Line 4 tracks would keep CP out of GO way from West of Kipling to Milton 100%. CP will run on the south side tracks 3 & 4. From Kipling to Lampton Yard, GO will have to crossover CP tracks to get to south side.
The Lake Shore will have CN-CP-VIA running from side to side at various stations without rebuilting them to keep them to one side.
Any new stations built from this time forth, they should be built to keep out of CN-CP-VIA way as it will allow for better operation for everyone.
Putting in the 2nd track under GO Control will be fun at some of the existing stations today.
