I wonder if VIA is ever going to get around to putting in tunnels and platforms to serve second tracks at many of the line stations. Other than Montreal, Toronto, London, Ottawa, Kingston, Quebec City, and the stations in the Toronto and Montreal area which also service commuter trains, VIA only has a single platform so trains in both directions need to switch to the same track or traffic would need to be halted while people walk across the track. It seems very inefficient from a scheduling perspective to need to find a way to switch trains onto track that is mostly running in the opposite direction.
