Nothing I've seen from Metrolinx/GO indicates that the final leg to Hunter Street will be electrified, as GO doesn't own the lines, and runs very few trains there. It doesn't make sense for them to spend the money to electrify to hunter. Electrifying along James St. and out to Niagara Falls though, is involved in most long term plans. Although, I'll point out that electrification is quite some time away (like 10 years plus).

I also agree with Joey Coleman's comment below, that in the best of circumstances I've had the bus get me into Hamilton in 50 minutes, whereas the train always takes at least 1:15, and longer if it's not partially express.
