Good for St. Thomas & Port Stanley. Hopefully will give their economies a boost! I would like it if it ever came back, the railway is literally in my backyard, would be great to take a trip down to Port Stanley on the train. But I wouldn't hold my breathe for it.
Unfortunately this new rail won't connect the former L&PS railway in the north of St. Thomas to London. CN owns the section and use it for industry. They don't have passing sidings for multiple trains so doubtful passenger rail would ever come withot significant investment. As well CN has changed the junction in London so it heads away from the VIA station, so getting any passengers to or from London would be a good amount of work. CN previously sabotaged Port Stanley Terminal Rail's efforts to extend to London...
