Via Rail plans to add one train in the morning from Guelph to Toronto and one train returning in the evening, sometime in 2016.
The company's president, Yves Desjardins-Siciliano, announced the news Tuesday to a group of rail advocates in Stratford.
"We plan the new trains at 6:30 from Stratford and 16:30 from Toronto hopefully by 2016," Via Rail spokesperson Maxime Dupont-Demers confirmed in an email.
"Before offering this new service, we need to address details and operating schedule with the infrastructure owners. Once this is completed, we will be able to finalize our network planning and set a start date."
Dupont-Demers added the trains will also run through Kitchener-Waterloo.
