I rode the train out to Stratford this morning and counted 367 people onboard, twice the number who took the first Stratford weekend train 3 weeks ago. Given how many people got off in Kitchener, and that it was only 6 cars, it must have been packed leaving Toronto. We need more trains!

Today is the first day of permanent GO train service to Stratford. What we need now is for Metrolinx to purchase the rail corridor and upgrade track to increase speed. Stratford -> Kitchener currently takes 53 minutes, but it can be under 30 minutes with simple track upgrades.
