3--4M would seem a stretch, there is 1 fairly short train in the morning and evening (but a big chunk of that is Guelph related) in each direction. Maybe 300 thousand per year? GO runs a few trains a day, but a lot of that is Guelph related too. The EA on improving the GO line a few years ago I think predicted 5000 per weekday at the kitchener station, so that would be 1.something million.
