The corridor used for the Milton service is owned by CP Rail and the strike could have meant that there would be no train service on the Milton line. GO transit has received word that the TCRC have agreed to run commuter trains. Milton train riders may wish to investigate alternate travel routes, which could include the use of the Lakeshore West or Kitchener train lines should the situation change.
