It's a great reason to add Hamilton to the list of stops on here for all day service. If they do build a stop here, would it be on the lot across Liuna station on James?
P.S. Dont let this thread degenerate to useless battles about Kitchener vs. Hamilton. Make a thread for that somewhere else if you really want to

I've been thinking about how a set up for a James North Station would work.
Since the Area where the platforms used to be is huge because it was built for many more platforms than needed, I think the station should be there, with a Platform level portion ( For VIA) and a LIUNA Station/ Street Level area and bridge across the rest of the tracks to the street on the north side.
The Waterfront Streetcar Line could have access from the Bridge on James Street. #4 Harbourfront Buses could jog over from John and Loop in front of LIUNA Station with access through the Old Station. Access from Taxis could come through on the street North of the tracks with access through the Bridge over the tracks.
Parking could be accessible from Bay Street and be a parking garage on the same part as the Station but on the west side James Street.
