GO Transit will offer seasonal Niagara Falls weekend train service this
summer

TORONTO, April 1, 2010 /CNW/ - Starting Friday, May 21 and just in time for the Victoria Day long weekend, GO will once again offer seasonal Niagara Falls weekend train service this summer. With approximately 50,000 passengers enjoying the service last summer, it was an easy decision for GO to make to run this weekend excursion service again.

GO listened to its passengers and is making an improvement to the schedule this year by offering a Friday night train trip to help travellers start their weekends. With many weekend trips to pick from, customers will be able to enjoy the scenic route to Niagara with stops in Toronto, Port Credit, Oakville, Burlington, St. Catharines, and Niagara Falls.

This GO service will provide an alternative to driving to either the popular Niagara Falls region or to Toronto. Come enjoy the many exciting attractions that the Niagara region has to offer including wineries, restaurants, the Falls, casinos, and much more.

Specific information about the Niagara Falls weekend GO Train service, including schedules and fares will be available closer to the start of service in the spring. Go to gotransit.com/zip for more information.
