Wouldn't they be above ground as part of the expanded Wilson Yard? Hence cheaper to build than the existing tunnels?
The cost is cheaper? What? It's not even close to being anywhere near cheaper, and would still not provide required yard capacity. The current proposal to build extended tail tracks for overnight storage is much cheaper than building a sheppard W connection along with additional yard space at wilson.
Building a sheppard west extension would cost at least six to eight hundred million dollars. If it is going to be built then it should be because the service is needed, not to save a relative minuscule amount in dead heading costs.
The Wilson Yard case is a poor rationale. RHC extension could come outfitted with it an underground yard facility at the 407 as was discussed

Why would you not have stations? A stop at Bathurst, one at Downsview and then the track goes southwest into Wilson Yard. The tail track would be part of the expanded Wilson Yard. What am I missing here?
