The reference to "the 6:30 a.m. trip from Aldershot GO" initially seems confusing, since
the current Lakeshore West schedule only has a 6:27 a.m. trip from Aldershot GO, and that route originates at Hamilton GO Centre at 6:12 a.m. — but they're rejigging the schedule:
Changing Service
Lakeshore West GO Train
• The weekday eastbound 6:12 a.m. trip from Hamilton GO Centre will depart twelve minutes earlier at 6:00 a.m. and arrive at Union Station earlier at 7:13 a.m. Times at other stops will also be earlier.
• The weekday eastbound 6:32 a.m. trip from Hamilton GO Centre will depart two minutes earlier at 6:30 a.m. and arrive at Union Station earlier at 7:41 a.m. Times at other stops will also be earlier.
• The weekday eastbound 7:05 a.m. trip from Hamilton GO Centre will depart five minutes earlier at 7:00 a.m. and arrive at Union Station earlier at 8:12 a.m. Times at other stops will also be earlier.
• The weekday eastbound 7:25 a.m. trip from Oakville GO will depart five minutes earlier at 7:20 a.m. and arrive at Union Station earlier at 8:06 a.m. Times at other stops will also be earlier.
• The weekday eastbound 7:07 a.m. trip from Aldershot GO will depart seven minutes earlier at 7:00 a.m. and arrive at Union Station earlier at 7:57 a.m. Times at other stops will also be earlier.
• The weekday westbound 5:25 p.m. trip from Union Station will depart two minutes earlier at 5:23 p.m. and arrive at Aldershot GO earlier at 6:21 p.m. Times at other stops will also be earlier.
So morning rush rail will eventually be:
6:00 am Hamilton GO Centre → Union Station 7:13 am
6:16 am West Harbour GO → Union Station 7:24 am
6:30 am Hamilton GO Centre → Union Station 7:41 am
6:46 am West Harbour GO → Union Station 7:57 am
7:00 am Hamilton GO Centre → Union Station 8:12 am
7:15 am Hamilton GO Centre → Union Station 8:32 am
And evening rush rail will eventually be:
4:30 pm Union Station → Hamilton GO Centre 5:45 pm
4:47 pm Union Station → West Harbour GO 5:59 pm
5:00 pm Union Station → Hamilton GO Centre 6:15 pm
5:23 pm Union Station → West Harbour GO 6:32 pm
5:37 pm Union Station → Hamilton GO Centre 6:52 pm
6:30 pm Union Station → Hamilton GO Centre 7:45 pm
Note that the scheduling shifts take effect June 27, 2015 (meaning June 29 for Hamilton trains), with the West Harbour GO apparently starting service two weeks after that.
35 days!
