The reason why we built Line 1 is that snow storm would tie up buses, particularly when it goes through the downtown core. I've been stuck in the backups before, where the articulated 60ft buses fails to go up the hill from Lebreton (now Pimisi) into the downtown, and there's a long chain of buses just trying to mush through downtown. If only the whole Line 1 wasn't penny wise and pound foolish, and it would have been a much better replacement than buses.
