ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
The tracks go sharply uphill west of King right now, so raising the tracks at king actually shallows the whole thing out. I talked to engineers about this a few years ago at the public meetings and they said that it would make things a lot easier for the Freight trains which have a really hard time with that hill right now.

I went to check out the rails behind Schnieders but they seemed like they were in a restricted area... So I didn't go in... Didn't feel right.
