Kitchener Line
Kitchener (formerly Georgetown) is one of the seven train lines of the GO Transit system in the Greater Toronto Area, Ontario, Canada. It extends from Union Station in Toronto to Kitchener. GO Bus service to Guelph to and from Georgetown (during rush hours) and Bramalea (during midday) is provided Monday to Friday with evening and weekend service directly to Union Station via Brampton.
The Georgetown line was, after the then-combined Lakeshore West line and Lakeshore East line, the second line established by GO Transit, opened on April 29, 1974 with service from Brampton and Union Station. From October 29, 1990 to July 2, 1993, train service on the line extended beyond Georgetown to Guelph. On December 19, 2011, the Georgetown Line was renamed the Kitchener Line with the opening of an extension to Kitchener, including a restoration of Guelph service.

Famous quotes containing the word line:
“There’s something like a line of gold thread running through a man’s words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to be long enough for you pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself. It’s another thing, though, to hold up that cloth for inspection.”
—John Gregory Brown (20th century)
