It would be a longer route that way, but it looks like it would have less opposition, maybe.

You can put a train line in the median of the 401 but it will not be a high speed train as the 401 has way to many curves for that.
it would pretty much be at the speed of the existing via trains without having to deal with freight traffic.
Anyway i think all the money for alto should go to local transit systems expansion in the country, you would get much more bang for your buck.
