Stratford Mayor Martin Ritsma is calling for a permanent passenger rail service in the city.
Ritsma’s call to action comes as the Go Train service between London and Toronto which has stop in Stratford and St Marys will cease to exist as of October 13th following a two year pilot project.
Metrolinx which operates the service says the call to remove the service is due to Via Rail announcing they would bring back its train which runs between London and Toronto.
Ritsma will be speaking with the federal Minister of Transport on September 12th to speak on the importance of rail service for Stratford.
