Awsome shots. They never let me on the platforms. The first VIA you caught was VIA 87: Toronto - Kitchener - London - Sarnia. The othe VIA P42DC Train was deadheaing to Mimico.
Well Starting June 29 (I Think) GO will have a 30 Min service on Most of the off-peak hours! (on the lakeshore Lines) so Toronto union station will have twice has munch GO trains as before hourly service on the lakeshore lines
That's the right attitude! :) Just be careful, they can check for tickets if your on the platform past the fare paid zone and they CAN write you a $120 ticket, I've seen it happen before.
The horn if needed, say, if there were somebody on the tracks or something like that, but the constant bells are really annoying. I have friends who live right by Rouge Hill GO and the train bells get on their nerves.

This is for commuter rail from neighbouring cities, Underground would be much louder and crowded
I Love Your Video. The Sky Reminds Me Of The Go Train And A Song From Maroon 5 And Play It
Interesting, usually VIA uses the tracks on the south side of the platform, and GO uses the northern tracks...seems to be the opposite now
nice shots.how were you able to film from the platform?
Sweet shots. :)

Trains in canada are big and wide and high, when comparing with trains in Asia and Europe:)
Awesome!!
platform 26 is the Barrie bound platform !
Dang , I haven't been in the old TO for a while. I keep forgetting but why are VIAs so short?
I don't care really. If they tell you to stop, then stop. If not than keep on filming! :) It's only Metrolinx that has an issue with it.
So... you're saying the horn is somehow less annoying than a bell. Really?
Well, GO owns all of the platforms and tracks in union station, so GO uses what ever they want!!!

I don't know why you can't take video and picture.
@RailfanWaterloo Shh, you're not allowed on the platforms ;)
@barbarysheep1 I walked onto it and filmed? lol
The one GO Railworker looked right at you and didn't seem to care :) 1:10
Does GO stand for Government of Ontario?
why are you not allowed to film on the platform?
@StCatharinesRailFan8 Meh, if you tired to keep track of all the damn trains around there you'd lose your mind!
