There will be no train service on the Barrie Line beginning of service Saturday, June 17, until the end of service on Sunday, June 18. Buses will replace train service during this time.

Between Newmarket GO and Downsview Park GO, we will be performing track construction and maintenance to ensure the safe and reliable operation of our train service. This work will also focus on Maple, King City, and Aurora GO station improvements as part of GO Expansion.

Here’s what you need to know:
