West Coast Express travels about 120km/h from Mission until slowing down to 85km/h for a bit through Ruskin then goes at 120km/h again until roughly around the Haney Bypass turnoff where it slows down the 85km/h and then stops at Port Haney Station. West of Port Haney Station, West Coast Express does not exceed 100km/h.

A commuter train down the middle of Hwy 1 in its own protected ROW will be able to go minimum 120km/h the entire stretch. I could see 140km/h being possible if the track is well designed. THAT will get people out of cars.
