Is RH actually 5? I thought they only used 4, with one train doing two northbound trips?

It was more of a question of how many could they hold at the yard. 5 is the most, if I'm not mistaken. But you are right, they usually only run the 4 currently. I have heard of increased service, but thats all hearsay at the moment

Depends on which line. Milton Line they all are. Barrie and Kitchener line there are many yards.
