Aurora Citizen

Spread the word! It hasn’t been well-advertised, but GO Transit has deployed a “pilot program” for Saturday, Sunday and Holiday trains travelling between Aurora and Union Station.

Finally, Aurorans can ride a weekend GO train into the city and back home again (up until September 3, that is). For an adult fare of $7.15 (or $14.30 round-trip), it’s a carefree, relaxing way to travel to see a baseball game, check out the museums or spend an afternoon wandering the streets of Toronto.

Weekend travellers can enjoy six southbound trips from Aurora to Union Station:

•  11:06 (arriving at Union @ 11:58)
•  13:29 (arriving at Union @ 14:21)
•  16:21 (arriving at Union @ 17:13)
•  17:46 (arriving at Union @ 18:38)
•  20:09 (arriving at Union @ 21:01)
•  23:04 (arriving at Union @ 23:56)

And six northbound trips from Union Station to Aurora:

• 12:10 (arriving at Aurora @ 12:59)
• 15:01 (arriving at Aurora @ 15:50)
• 17:25 (arriving at Aurora @ 18:16)
• 18:50 (arriving at Aurora @ 19:39)
• 21:41 (arriving at Aurora @ 22:30)
• 00:10 (arriving at Aurora @ 00:59)
