I don't know how congested the Horseshoe Bay- North Van rail section is, but I wouldn't expect that much.

And Commuter Rail is pretty fast, faster than even Skytrain. Unlike ExpressBus, it actually hits the North Shore city Centers at First Narrows and Lonsdale, and takes a load off the Seabus.

Neptune Terminals doubled their coal export capacity, new G3 Grain Terminal, Richardson doubled their wheat cargo capacity:

Despite ongoing construction, which began in September 2013 and concluded earlier this year, Richardson managed to set both rail and shipping records at its busy port terminal. While the facility typically ships about three million tonnes of grain each year, it set a new handling record in 2015, shipping 5.2 million tonnes. Richardson shipped 551,000 tonnes of grain in April 2016 alone, beating the previous record of 489,000 tonnes. That same month, the Vancouver terminal received 5,400 rail cars – 200 more than it has ever received in the same time period.
