  • This Vlog is the Niagara Falls GO Train Review.
    With the Ontario Government announcing year round weekend GO Transit Train Service to and from Niagara Falls, i decided to take a ride for myself and see just how good it is and how much it costs.
    Join me on the GO Train to Toronto.
    (Correction to the statement in the video, Seasonal GO Train to Niagara has been running since 2009)

      Dave Sourwine hi Dave , thanks for your comment, back around 2002/04 I use to be sent to go and pick up the CP crew at Willowbrook to take them up to Guelph Junction .
      I’m doing a trip (my first time) on VIA Rail at the end of the month. Something about Planes, Trains and all big machines.

    thanks so much for your great video! when you buy a ticket online, are you guaranteed a seat? Or is it first come first serve and you activate your ticket on board? wondering about a busy time around the eclipse from toronto to Niagara Falls....

    • @NigelHay
      @NigelHay  6 месяцев назад

      No, GO Transit is a first come first served. Since i made this video, GO has some really good prices if you buy online. $30 return for 2 people!! it's $23 one way!

    Please do not take Niagra Falls weekend train. 7PM train Niagra Falls train supposed to arrive at 930PM at Union. It reached at 2 AM. It happened last Saturday on Sept 17th'2022. GO staff says due to terror attack on train before our train but it was nothing like that. We were without food , water and washrooms. No apology from PM or Doug Ford or GO. There were over 3,000 people in the train.

    I had left Niagara Falls long before Go Train operated there, one summer I worked for the carnival in the GTA and we had a site in Stoney Creek, would take the train to Scarborough a couple of times to spend the night in a bed with girls my brother and I meet running rides.
