The timetable posted above does not permit that diagram. That is my point. It would need to be Timmins or Cochrane (although possibly on alternating days Toronto-Cochrane-Timmins-Toronto-Timmins-Cochrane-Toronto, not Timmins and Cochrane, with the italicized terminal being the southbound start point.my understanding is the train leaves Toronto, heads to Timmins, then heads to Cochrane, then heads to Timmins, then heads to Toronto. They will be maintained in the TMC.

This is a great thing. Hopefully it can be expanded to all transit systems it touches. It would help solve the "last mile" problem for some riders.Good to see.
