GO 545

During my short (10 min.) railfanning time at Toronto's Union station I managed to catch three GO commuter trains like this one, and got sight of the ONR Northlander before he hid inside the station. Needless to say I quickly became bored with them, you only need to see two trains before the exitment whereas off and you get it, commuter trains are just that, commuter trains, very little diversity, lots of traffic. Montreal on the other hand has way more diversity, too bad I didn't see any of it.
It's odd that he would say there is little diversity after admitting to only spending 10 minutes watching trains. A longer stay could have produced not only GO trains (of which there are dozens admittedly), but also VIA, Amtrak, ON and the occasional freight.

That's still not a lot of diversity though, especially taking into account that GO+VIA account for most of the traffic. 95%+ I'm guesisng.
