Really wish we could see Greyhound's balance sheets for the last few years. Did profitability just suddenly decline for them to pull out of the West in 2018 and Canada this year?Well it looks like we've now got a vastly inferior replacement for the Toronto-London route previously operated by Greyhound:
New bus service takes passengers from London to Toronto starting Thursday
North American Discount Bus operator, Megabus is hoping to fill the void left by the demise of Greyhound Canadalondon.ctvnews.ca

There's not really an obvious spot if they don't want to buy the Greyhound terminal, and a pretty substantial detour if they are thinking in terms of going to Detroit.Could they not find a place downtown or on a transit route to stop?
Likely because it's cheap and easy to set that up. Dont know why they couldnt use the VIA Station, but i guess getting permits from the city is a problem. You would need to drive there or take a cab.
That might save some time.
I hear the old Greyhound Station is available.Could they not find a place downtown or on a transit route to stop?
It will save time- if you don't drive. It's a 56m schedule and about a 40m drive. It will provide connectivity to the two institutions, with the intermediate communities (ON Bus stops in Coldwater) and with Midland-Penetanguishene and Orillia transits.
That too.
If one thinks positive, this could just be a first step, get your toes wet, Covid service. As time moves on and more people travel and Megabus has some experience with the numbers of passengers, they may consider ramping up far more service on this route.
