I have a friend who travels Barrie Allendale to Union to Eglington (Yonge-Eglington) five days a week. There is more backtracking going on than I suspect many people know. This is the first meangful connection on any GO train line that does not force a commuter to Union first. That alone should boost Barrie line traffic. As @Megaton327 says, if there were then meaningful E/W connections Sheppard West eastbound on line 4 and Finch West to Finch, either or both would be game changers for the NETWORK.
Surely the bolded part is not true? Does milton line not connect at Kipling? KW line at bloor/Dundas West? Sure the connection is smoother here (blessed with the new build and all that) but it is hardly the first connection.
