Thanks for responding... my idea for using buses instead of the more traditional locomotives (even including double deckers) is based on a feeling (which I will try to back up with facts) that doing as you suggest (just run a couple commuter trains in from Langford in the am, out in the pm...) would only carry a few hundred people at most, and these trains would sit idle much of the time.  Using buses allows you to make multiple trips with the same vehicle.  I don't know the exact number of commuters now driving into town from the Langford/Colwood area, but I would guess it is several thousand people at least, so we have to be able to move more than a few hundred people in those rush hour periods than a conventional rail setup could do, especially on a single track (if we are to make the service attractive to commuters).  Thanks
