Ah, Unionville GO station. A decade ago, I took the GO train to and from downtown Toronto for work…read more Unionville is a stop along the Stouffville line. Milliken station is slightly closer to my home than Unionville. However, if I end up missing the last train for the evening, my next best bet would be to take the GO bus, which stops at Unionville station. Buses run all the time. Trains don't run on weekends. The parking lot gets extremely busy at rush hour. It's interesting seeing folks drive in like maniacs, park, and run like their lives depended on catching the train. It's both amusing and stressful. The parking lot is one of the larger ones for a GO station in the area. I rarely got a seat on the train during rush hour when I boarded here. I only got a seat when it was March Break and thought I had won the lottery. I also learned how to stand up and sleep on the train. It's a skill that I am still proud of to this day. This station has a cute building where you can purchase tickets. There are also washrooms. This location is ideal. It's by Kennedy and highway 407. So, if you need someone to pick you up, it's pretty easy to find this station. There's more retail development around the area since I was a GO commuter. I would estimate a five-minute drive, at most, from this station to the local plaza to eat and shop. You can walk it, but I wouldn't recommend it on a snowy day like today! (432)

Lots of free parking all around but may need to park further sometimes as this lot is busy. Since…read morethere is technically only one visible exit for each parking lot, some people run for their lives to get out of the parking lot as fast as possible to avoid the exit parking traffic. It is actually very stressful getting in and out of trying to pick someone up during rush hours. It will take a good 10 mins+ to just get out. You need all lot of patience as there are quite a few rude drivers out there. They really need extra stop signs for incoming traffic and extra exits. Whomever designed this place didn't think clearly with just one visible exit !! The go office is closed over the weekend so no washrooms are available. I could be wrong but I don't see a reload machine anywhere. You can buy a ticket , check, your balance or tap but no reload machine. There are two machine tickets booths - one near by the bus stops and one very the office that are self serve. Convenient but slow. Run for your lives!!

The stop has some nearby parking spots to wait for pick ups. If you don't have someone waiting for you, take your presto card and jump on the bus, it's free.

Tons of parking but GO has started to increase the amount of reserved spots which has people fighting for free spots every morning. The parking lot usually fills up by 7am so try to get there super early to guarantee a spot. This station has washrooms, a ticket booth, and free wifi for when you're waiting for your train. Train service stops around 9am every weekday so just a heads up. Service updates are provided on the monitors above and are fairly accurate & dependable.

It has been 3 years since my last review of this station and things have changed. GO Transit…read moreintroduced two short trains that start at Maple station, which helps quite a bit. It feels luxurious because you can always find a seat. However, they're only available at 7:19am and 7:49am. This station is much busier than it used to be in the past. Parking is full by 7:30am. GO Transit has also introduced reserved parking spots for close to $100/mo. There are still plenty of free parking spots available, but GO will keep adding reserved spots as more people request them. The number of free parking spots will only diminish. Illegal parking in the parking lot is not worth it, as I hear that tickets are close to the same price as a reserved parking spot. Parking in residential areas is also not recommended due to bylaws. From what I hear from a co-worker who takes the train from Maple station, the Maple parking lot is almost all reserved parking. The station has free wifi now. They always show CP24 news on the TV, which is a great distraction while waiting for the train to arrive. I also enjoy the humor of the customer service reps on the train. "Tracks are for trains. If you're not a train, you shouldn't be on the track." "Thank you for choo-choo-choosing GO."

Once you're there though, there's usually a ton of parking here, even on the weekdays since it's further down the Lakeshore East line, with only 1 stop between it and Union Station. There's a (semi?) permanent Wendy's food truck that is set up here that's even open on the weekends! On the weekdays, there's a Puralator truck parked next to it for maximum drop-off convenience. There are spots that are reserved for these trucks. The staff here are super nice. There was a cordoned off area that put one of the ticketing machines out of commission. An employee who was standing nearby on duty advised that this was to avoid anyone from getting hit by falling glass! I'd suggest paying attention to the caution tape. There was another employee inside that talked to us about the other ticketing machine and let us know that the day passes aren't any cheaper than getting a ticket each way, just more convenient so you don't have to go up to the machine twice. The tunnel to move under the tracks was well lit and maintained so it didn't feel spooky down there. A good station to get on the GO!
