I think the biggest issue is that REM is planned with high enough peak frequencies that it would be difficult to schedule additional trips - especially ones that aren't going to be stopping at all the REM stops - without disrupting one or both services. In other words, I don't see how there's supposed to be enough capacity to accommodate mainline rail services.
