I'd love an east-west Go train line that follows the 401 from the Rouge National Park in scarbs to Mississauga.

Imagine if they’d added simple commuter rail instead of lanes along the highway. It’s so blindingly obvious.

And it needs to go all the way. None of this turning trains around in the middle, making it insanely slow to go anywhere but the middle.

Lakeshore east west. 30 minute all day & week service. A little more south but it works good.

It's clearly not enough. It only serves the commuters downtown. Everyone was talking about getting stuck on the 401. Maybe building commuter rail parallel with the 401 would help address that.

It has 30 min all day all way service from 5am to 12am. I think its fine (I wish better frequency)

From my experience, the teouvle is getting around within the city using their busses, which is why ppl opt for cars.

The problem isn't its service schedule. It's the area covered. Bexause there is nothing east west in the middle of the city.
