Most reasonably sized rail-stations in Europe have a supermarket, and although most things in Europe are not open 24/7, the central-station supermarkets often are.
Madrid Atocha has amazing plant features inside the main hallway. What will ours have, a TimHortons to-go? :/
The region is not going to run a supermarket, nor should they. And to date, no supermarket chain has yet committed to putting an urban supermarket in DTK, and I don't see why the station would changes things substantially in the near term.
As for Madrid Atocha, they have some 300,000 passengers per day. Do you really think that's comparable to what Kitchener will be?
