They could always do the "last 2 cars" don't open at Georgetown - or is there a physical limitation?The Kitchener trains are supposed to be lengthened later this year, but that won't happen until July at the earliest, when GO gets more equipment. On top of that, all of the trains starting at Georgetown can not be lengthened until the station/yard there is modified. Several of the tracks there can not even handle trainsets with two locomotives, nevermind two additional coaches.
Having 30-minute off-peak service on Lakeshore would be nice in June, if there are enough crews. Especially on weekends. Though I'd trade a couple of those runs for a 1 AM and 2 AM run, particularly on Friday/Saturdays. I'd think 30-minute service would get more use than Barrie weekend service.
Though I suppose if they are short crews, at least there is hope the 30-minute service is coming sooner or later ... perhaps after the Niagara Falls and Barrie service stops after the summer.
(though I'm not sure why Barrie shouldn't be getting weekend service year-round ... or the other lines for that matter).
