1
This is a GO train.
2
It's part of Ontario's commuter rail network with seven lines that connect Toronto and the cities around it.
3
And Metrolinks, which is the provincial agency that owns GO, is running a project called GO Expansion with a price tag of roughly $27 billion.
4
I do like to start any of these sessions by just reminding us collectively of what it is we're actually doing, yeah?
5
So we are building the largest expansion and modernization of a commuter rail network anywhere in the world.
6
Anywhere in the world.
7
We are building out.
8
Deserve it.
9
And the idea behind the biggest expansion and modernization of a commuter rail network in the world is quite simple.
10
You stop looking at schedules.
11
You just walk up to the platform and an electric train shows up within 15 minutes.
12
Originally, this was supposed to be done by 2032, but it has now quietly shifted to 2042.
13
So, the reason for that 10 -year delay?
14
Well, there isn't one.
15
There are a lot of them.
16
So, to explain each problem with this project in simple terms, I made a transit game that we are going to play together.
17
And our starting point is going to be right here at Aldershot Station.
18
so let's play first we gotta give our passenger a name let's call him andy
19
and andy is currently sitting at aldershot
20
and instead of a friday maybe let's pick monday at 8 a .m in the morning
21
and let's click start all right so in this game every single train
22
that you see on the line is moving according to a real go schedule
23
so for example this one
24
this one is currently going to malton station at the speed of 64 kilometers an hour as
25
if though it was actually monday at 8 a .m in the morning
26
so according to a real go schedule this is where
27
that train would be but again this is a game
28
and i don't want to wait for trains to move for
29
so long so i can just simply increase this speed
30
and that's how we can make those trains move faster
31
but for the purposes of today's video we're going to follow a specific path, but if you want to explore this simulator for yourself,
32
I attached the link down in the description.
33
Anyways, Andy is at Aldershot, and Andy wants to get to Burlington.
34
So let's click on Burlington, and we can see that the next train departs in about five minutes.
35
But of course, we're not going to just sit and wait here for five minutes, so let me just increase the speed.
36
And while we're waiting for that train to arrive, I should mention that this is Lakeshore West line, one of seven go lines.
37
It goes all the way from downtown Toronto, so from Union Station, all the way to Niagara Falls.
38
But we won't be going that far out today.
39
Let me zoom back in and we can see that Andy's train is over here.
40
We can now board it.
41
So it's a suggested train.
42
It's going to Union, but we just need to go essentially one stop.
43
So what we can do is simply click on board train.
44
Doors are now closed and Andy is on his happy way to Burlington station.
45
As you can see I'm Andy and I'm headed to Burlington.
46
Your next stop Burlington, go.
47
But what I wanted to say is that Lakeshore West,
48
it's one of seven go lines and it's the busiest one so naturally it gets priority under go expansion.
49
As of today during rush hour you get a train from here all the way to Union roughly every 15 minutes, which is great.
50
So railways call that on peak mornings and evenings, but everything else is off peak, for example middays or weekends.
51
And during those times you need to wait for your next train at least twice as long.
52
And that is the whole point of GO expansion.
53
15 minutes should mean 15 minutes, whether it's Monday morning or Saturday afternoon.
54
So how is Mitterlings going to get to a higher frequency of trains?
55
Well, to answer that, you need to know what's actually pulling the train that Andy is currently on.
56
The newest locomotive that GO has is called MP54AC, built by Motive Power in Boise, Idaho.
57
It has two diesel engines producing 5 ,400 horsepower, making it the most powerful diesel passenger locomotive in north america
58
and it needs every bit of that
59
because it needs to be able to pull up to 12 double -decker coaches each weighing at least 50 tons
60
and then it needs to generate electricity heating and air conditioning to ensure that everybody on board is happy
61
so it looks like it's one locomotive doing all of the work
62
while those coaches are simply there along for the ride but the thing is
63
That locomotive can absolutely pull all of those coaches without any problems.
64
What it cannot really do is get those coaches moving from zero very quickly.
65
And that matters, because if a train takes a long time to clear a station, the next one has to wait further back.
66
Slow acceleration doesn't just mean that your trip is longer, it also dictates how many trains each line can hold.
67
And it looks like Andy is currently arriving at Burlington Station, so let's check in with him.
68
There is a solution to not -so -fast acceleration, though, in the form of electric trains.
69
Instead of having one locomotive doing all the pulling,
70
electric trains spread their engines under multiple different cars so that as many wheels as possible actually pull.
71
And in my opinion, one of the obvious candidates to replace GOES diesel locomotive fleet is the Stadler Kiss.
72
It's a Swiss double -decker electric train that runs all over Europe and even in North America, specifically on Caltrain in California.
73
But in order to meet Canadian regulations, Metrolinks needs a custom electric train.
74
So the thinking, at least as of today, would be to build a plant, probably somewhere in Ontario, where those trains would be made,
75
and then convince other transit agencies to get them, so that the production line would make some sort of financial sense.
76
But which manufacturer would be willing to do that?
77
Well, this is pure speculation on my part, but most likely Metrolinks is going to go with Alstom.
78
They're French, but they bought Bombardier's rail division back in 2021,
79
and they're also the ones who are running GoTrain's as of today as part of a $1 .3 billion contract
80
that expires in 2031.
81
But again, no electric trains have been ordered, but according to Metrolinks, the very first one should be launched around year 2036.
82
Now, the thing is, even if you do manage to get electric trains, they need electricity from overhead wires.
83
And the reason why Andy is currently sitting at Burlington Station in the first place is
84
because according to this GO expansion plan, Burlington will be the very last electrification point along this Lakeshore West line.
85
So anything west of that won't be electrified.
86
We'll talk more about overhead wires in a moment, but now I need to send Andy to his next stop, which is going to be Union.
87
So let's click on Union, and it's going to be quite a journey at 61 minutes.
88
Actually, before we talk more about the overhead wires, there's something else.
89
Again, even if Goat does figure out where to get their electric trains from, they will naturally run faster and closer to each other.
90
So keeping them safely apart is also something that needs to be figured out.
91
Today a GO train stops only because the operator, they look ahead and they see a red light.
92
And the system knows where that train is because its wheels complete an electrical circuit, which is a very, very old technology.
93
That's why Metrolinks is installing a system called ETCS Level 2, which stands for European Train Control System,
94
where a signal appears inside of the operator's cab.
95
And Metrolinks has already started experimenting with it.
96
Because as of June of 2026,
97
the very first GO cab has been fitted with ETCS and a test track is being built along Richmond Hill line.
98
This will be the very first deployment of ETCS anywhere in North America.
99
But this is where we get into a bit of a pickle.
100
To understand that pickle, let's first board Andy onto his union -bound train.
101
It's almost here.
102
Let me just increase the speed and board train.
103
Perfect.
104
So the thing is, the very first draft of Go Expansion Project was published in 2008, when Metrolinks released their paper called The Big Move.
105
It was this 25 -year plan for how this entire region would move
106
and its very first priority was a fast expanded
107
and frequent regional rail network a few years later it even got a name it was called r er
108
or regional express rail
109
but at first of course politicians had to figure out who would actually pay for all of this
110
so not a lot of physical work was actually done
111
but by 2013 metrolinks had already started upgrading the USRC or the Union Station Rail Corridor.
112
Even back then, 13 years ago, it was clear that if Go wanted to run more trains,
113
the biggest choke point in this entire plan would be Union Station, because that's exactly where every single line converges.
114
And it looks like Andy is currently arriving at Union Station, so let's see exactly what I'm talking about.
115
Yeah, Union Station is absolutely massive, and Go is by far its biggest user.
116
Somebody has to control where all of these trains are going, right? it.
117
So who does it?
118
Well, for the better part of a century, it's been done from a few brick towers, including this one.
119
It's called the John Street Interlocking Tower.
120
It's a very old technology with wires, relays, and switches.
121
But the manager of it called it the Elon Musk of the 1920s because in theory, it could run for another hundreds of years.
122
But that system has a bit of a throughput problem.
123
It can manage trains maybe every 30 minutes,
124
but basically it cannot continuously juggle trains on each line all day in both directions every 15 minutes.
125
So back in 2013, Metrolinks started the process of replacing the signals inside the Union Station rail corridor,
126
but that work started before the final plans for GO expansion were locked in.
127
And that turned out to be a very big problem.
128
Because before anyone even knew what the final project would look like,
129
engineers started replacing the signals inside the USRC based on the track layout that
130
Union already had.
131
And that work went on for 10 years.
132
And then in 2023, Metrolinx realized that the work that they'd been doing for the past decade was now essentially obsolete.
133
The upgrades that they did were now useless because they were based around the track layout that would eventually have to change.
134
So in June of 2026, Metrolinx announced that they were writing off more than half a billion dollars of taxpayers' money.
135
They did say that a usable portion was retained.
136
Now, what portion exactly?
137
Well, that we don't know for sure, but I'm standing here above the rail corridor at Blue Jaysway,
138
and take a look at these signals over there.
139
They are either covered or turned to their side.
140
Their wires are not even connected to anything, so clearly they're out of service.
141
And also take a look at this.
142
I found the manufacturer's label on one of those signal bridges.
143
They were made in Winnipeg back in December of 2014, about one month after the contract was signed.
144
And the signals themselves are stamped with General Electric logo, which makes sense because the company that won this contract,
145
Alstom, well, they bought GE's rail signaling business back in 2015.
146
So you could argue that these signals will get turned on at some point for freight trains
147
that wouldn't have this fancy European train control system on board.
148
But they'll be pointing at the wrong tracks down below maybe they will get adjusted maybe not
149
but at this point again this is just pure speculation on my part
150
this is probably at least a part of where half a billion dollars went
151
now we'll come back to union station in a second
152
because it's time to send andy over to lakeshore east line specifically to oshawa station
153
and our train is already here it's going to leave in about four minutes
154
but the thing is lakeshore east also gets quite busy
155
and it's going to be both electrified
156
and actually it's going to be expanded as well
157
so together with lakeshore west it's the only full corridor slated for electrification in the near term
158
so let me see the train is going to leave in
159
about three minutes let's click board train let me speed
160
this up the doors are now going to close much quicker
161
and it looks like now let me zoom in andy is on his way to Oshawa.
162
Right now Oshawa is the very end of the Lakeshore East line
163
but not for long because it's getting an 18 .7 kilometer extension in the form of four new stations.
164
They're going to be called Thornton's Corners East, Ritson Road, Cordes and Bowmanville.
165
And Metrolinks contracted that work out to Bowmanville construction partners which are Leadcor and Dragados Canada.
166
The contract is worth about $1 .5 billion and it's going to take about 15 years to complete.
167
So we're talking early 2040s, though they officially broke ground in January of 2026.
168
But here's what's interesting.
169
Those four stations, they're not a part of that contract
170
because Metrolinks wants private developers to pay for them through their transit -oriented communities program
171
so the tracks themselves are funded but the stations not yet
172
and what about electrification well just like on lake shore west
173
the overhead wires do not cover the entire line currently the plan is to electrify from union to the existing Oshawa station.
174
But then I had a question.
175
What happens when an electric train reaches the end of the wires, but there are still four stations to go?
176
Well, it looks like Andy is currently arriving at Oshawa station.
177
So let's just ask him.
178
Well, I think nothing would happen.
179
The electric train is simply going to stop, turn around and then head back to Union Station.
180
But let's say I wanted to get from here, from Oshawa, two more stops to Ritson Road, for example.
181
I would have to get off and then wait for a diesel train to arrive.
182
Because the way that GO Expansion is designed is, well, those electric trains will be handling busy routes, in this case from Union to Oshawa,
183
and then beyond Oshawa, so to Bowmanville, diesel trains will still be running.
184
There is another option though, and it's called a battery power train.
185
They will be able to charge up underneath those overhead wires and then coast on battery power when those wires end.
186
Metrolinks looked into that technology, but according to their own words, for a train of the size that they need, it's still in its infancy.
187
But battery -powered trains, or BMEWS for short, they're not science fiction. In fact, the UK has just ordered 29 of them from Alstom to
188
run past the end of the wires in the north of England.
189
Now, those are smaller, they're also single -deck, but the thing is, they already have the factory, they have the contract and the money,
190
and they're promising to launch them in the UK by 2034.
191
Metrolinx has none of the above and they're promising 2036.
192
So I guess we'll just have to see.
193
So let's make a U -turn and send Andy back to Union Station.
194
Let me just click here.
195
Our train is already at the station, leaves in about 20 seconds.
196
Let's click board.
197
Let's increase the speed a little bit.
198
Doors are closed and Andy is on his way.
199
So, electrification is great, right?
200
It's clean, it's quiet, and the trains are faster.
201
But it needs a ton of infrastructure in the form of overhead wires, which we just discussed.
202
But remember Union Station?
203
On top of $504 million spent on signals that nobody really needs anymore, Metrolinks has another huge problem over there.
204
Those overhead wires, or catenary as railways call them, they simply do not fit under the roof of Union Station
205
because it's way too low by a matter of a few inches.
206
You might say, so what?
207
Just raise the roof, right?
208
Well, it's not so simple.
209
The thing is, Union Station is a national historic site.
210
And that label doesn't just apply to the beautiful building on Front Street.
211
It also applies to the steel roof that covers the tracks, and it was built in 1929.
212
So if Metrolinks wanted to make any changes to it, it needs to put together a proposal.
213
And then the City of Toronto, the Province of Ontario, and then
214
Parks Canada, they all need to sign off on it.
215
And it looks like Andy is currently arriving at Union Station, so let's go take a look at that roof together.
216
Well, here it is.
217
These steel arches went up almost 100 years ago to keep rain
218
and snow off of the passengers and also let the smoke out from steam locomotives.
219
Starting in 2010, though, Metrolinks spent about $248 million restoring this roof.
220
They were allowed to replace the middle section with this huge new glass atrium, but the rest, about 7 acres of steel,
221
that had to stay exactly as it was.
222
So now Metrolinks has four different options.
223
The first one is to use a metal rigid rail on the roof instead of overhead wires, just like certain railways do inside of tunnels.
224
Option number two is to dig up the tracks and then lower them, but there's a thick concrete slab underneath,
225
so that virtually sounds impossible to do.
226
Option number three is to cut every single steel column in the roof
227
and then insert a taller piece in between
228
so you can literally just jack the whole roof up
229
but there are thousands of people who walk underneath every single day
230
so that method sounds a little dangerous
231
or finally just leave union station as is
232
and use battery power trains they can drop their pantographs
233
and roll into union station on battery power those are the ones that the UK has just ordered,
234
and in fact, railways use that method all over the world.
235
It's nothing new.
236
But as of today, no decision has been made.
237
So now let's send Andy to another station, this time Kitchener.
238
Let's click on this one.
239
The next train leaves in 24 seconds.
240
Let's click board.
241
Let's speed this up.
242
And Andy should now be on his way to Kitchener.
243
While I'm on my way to Kitchener, let's talk about this line because it needs a lot of TLC.
244
Originally, it was supposed to be electrified as well, but according to the latest Metrolink's 10 -year plan, the overhead wires stop at Pearson Airport.
245
And that stretch from Union to Pearson, well...
246
Up Express uses it.
247
And also you gotta remember that anywhere within the network, the very first electric train won't show up until at least 2036.
248
And Lakeshore lines are probably going to get them first.
249
Kitchener would come way after that, we're talking late 2030s.
250
Even if then.
251
But electrification is like the last problem to worry about here, because for the most part of this journey, Go doesn't even own the tracks.
252
That's right.
253
Because between Bramley and Georgetown, Go uses Canadian National's main freight line.
254
So essentially they have to squeeze in between the freight trains.
255
And if CN needs the track, CN gets the track, if you know what I mean.
256
And then from Georgetown to Kitchener, Metrolinks does own the tracks, but they're mostly single track.
257
So a train in each direction, they have to take turns.
258
But there's progress though, because in October of 2025,
259
Ontario signed an agreement in principle with CN to buy about 21 kilometers of land from them
260
and then build tracks just for go.
261
But as of today, it's just an agreement in principle and the land hasn't exchanged any hands.
262
And it looks like Andy is currently arriving at Kitchener.
263
So let's talk about yet another huge problem.
264
The thing is, there's a whole web of companies involved in this project, but in 2025, it all just blew up.
265
The consortium hired to deliver
266
Go Expansion is called OnExpress, and it consisted of four companies.
267
ACON from Canada, FCC from Spain, Alstom from France, and Deutsche Bahn, a German National Railway.
268
And then a related company called OnExpress Operations, which was majority owned by Deutsche Bahn with AECON as their junior partner,
269
was supposed to take over running GO for the next 23 years, starting in 2025.
270
But then Deutsche Bahn, or DB for short, came in wanting to run GO the way that railways run in Europe.
271
For example, crew scheduling.
272
The Trillium, which is a news outlet, they got hold of one cruise ship description that ran for nine hours.
273
And in those nine hours, the crew spent under two actually operating a train with passengers on it.
274
The rest was just deadheading and waiting around.
275
But of course, that is unavoidable in any system.
276
But DB wanted to make it better and more efficient by using their own German software.
277
But Metrolinks didn't like that idea, and they actively discouraged its use.
278
They basically said that things just work differently in Canada.
279
And then in 2025, the handover never happened, and in May of that year, Deutsche Bahn's operating contract was fully terminated.
280
DB called it a significant realignment, while Metrolinks told its employees that they had to fit under their current funding envelope.
281
So now let's send Andy back to union yet again, because we have to talk about another big problem yet again
282
so our train is going to leave in 20 seconds
283
it's perfect let's click board train let's speed up time a little bit
284
and let's see if andy perfect is moving
285
and he's on his way back to union station in addition
286
to needing to overhaul the entire union station rail corridor union itself does not have enough tracks
287
or platforms to be able to handle more trains passing through it.
288
Metrolinks knew that of course, so in November of 2020 they signed an agreement for a project called USEP,
289
which stands for Union Station Enhancement Project.
290
The idea is to widen the existing platforms, add two new tracks on the south side of the station,
291
and also dig out a brand new concourse that will connect
292
Bay Street and York Street.
293
Four companies are in charge of this project.
294
They're called OnTrack Alliance.
295
There are two American contractors, Kiewit and Alberici, doing the construction.
296
There is also Canadian WSP doing the design and a Kiewit subsidiary called Mass Electric Construction Canada doing the signaling.
297
So it looks like Andy is currently almost at Union Station.
298
So let's take a look progress.
299
Well, construction has been going on since 2022, and you can see how much wider
300
Union is going to be.
301
East of the station, they also installed brand new bridge spans over Jarvis and Charburn, so now the corridor can go from six tracks to eight.
302
Now, the On -Track Alliance signed a $562 million agreement to deliver these upgrades,
303
but the official completion target was fall of 2025
304
so they are at least already a year behind
305
but metrolinks is saying that
306
when all of these upgrades are going to be complete union
307
will be able to handle up to 80 trains an hour
308
that is four times more versus what it handles today now andy is going to stay at union
309
But we still haven't talked about four lines.
310
Let's start with Milton, because it shares a problem with Kitchener, where across both of those lines, go runs on tracks that belong to freight railways.
311
But politicians came up with a solution, and that solution is called the missing link.
312
Basically, build a brand new freight railway between Milton and Bramley, put freight trains onto it,
313
and suddenly, both of those corridors are free for go.
314
And in January of 2025, Doug Ford, who is the Premier of Ontario,
315
he told Metrolinks to study it under a new name called GO 2 .0.
316
But at this point, it's just that, a study.
317
Then there's Barrie.
318
It was supposed to be one of the five electrified lines, but there's real progress though,
319
because the $175 million Davenport Diamond Guideway is complete, so now GO can fly over the freight tracks,
320
and also two new stations are under construction.
321
But the overhead wires pushed to an undated phase two.
322
But what's interesting is that Metrolinks is now saying that, at least in the meantime, Barry riders will experience longer travel times.
323
Because those two new stations, well, they add two stops.
324
And diesel locomotives, they need to accelerate, stop, and then get going again.
325
So all in all, the trip time is going to be slightly longer.
326
Richmond Hill is quite simple, with five trains in the morning and then seven in the afternoon.
327
Portions of that line also share tracks with freight railways, but it also runs along the bottom of the Don Valley,
328
which tends to flood from time to time.
329
Like in 2013, people had to be rescued from a train by boat.
330
So fixing all of that would cost a lot of money.
331
So this line is not in the electrification plan, it's not in the 15 -minute plan, it's not really part of any plan.
332
And Stoveville, it's partly double -tracked already, with the target of a train every 15 minutes all the way to Unionville.
333
But it's deferred from electrification, just like Barrie, and it also shares the corridor into Union with Lakeshore East, so essentially it inherits every single

Union station problem that we just talked about.
335
So if you're keeping track, Lakeshore West and East, they are getting electrified, at least partially.
336
Then Kitchener, Barrie, and Stouffville, they were promised electrification but that has been pushed into an undated phase two
337
and finally milton and richmond hill they are kind of stuck behind the freight train
338
so to conclude ontario was promised a european style railway with five electrified lines
339
and trains running every 15 minutes all day in both directions originally done by 2032
340
and to be fair a lot of work is actually being done with brand new tracks stations bridges
341
but electric trains themselves are still up in the air only
342
two lines at least as of today will be electrified instead
343
of five a german railway was fired half a billion dollars written off union stations roof
344
that is way too low
345
and no decision has been made on what to do about it
346
and the finish line that slipped all the way to 2042.
347
is go expansion dead Absolutely not.
348
But is it what Ontario was promised?
349
Not really.
350
But now I wanted to hear from you.
351
Today this was probably the most challenging video that I put together.
352
I tried to be as accurate as possible, but if you noticed any mistakes or inconsistencies,
353
please feel free to let me know down in the comments.
354
Thank you so much for staying all the way to the end of this video.
355
I hope to see you next time and bye bye.

이 영상으로 연습하는 방법

  1. 먼저 말하지 않고 영상을 끝까지 듣고 모르는 단어를 적어 둡니다.
  2. 0.75배속으로 한 문장씩 섀도잉을 시작하고, 익숙해지면 보통 속도로 돌아갑니다.
  3. 자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교하고, wire, rail, railway 같은 단어에 특히 주의합니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
