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."

This train station along with a couple of bus terminals have a futuristic oval shape. The interior is lined with mirrors and skylights, making it both bright and beautiful. The station is very clean and still has that new construction smell. There are 2 parking lots, managed by Smart Centres. The larger parking lot is located next to the station. The smaller parking lot is located where the old Best Buy and Home Outfitters used to be.

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.

Since the opening of this station and the York University subway station, buses are no longer allowed on campus. Buses stop right here instead and students have to take the subway to campus. That's an extra 3.25 per commute just for 2 stops. You might be thinking "sounds like a YorkU problem!" But let's keep it real here it was probably mutual. On the bright side the campus is no longer crowded with buses and line-ups. Though the commute is a hassle now for GO riders.

Tip: This station is a hub for lines 1 (Yonge-University-Spadina) and 4 (Sheppard)…read more Sheppard-Yonge station. What's in a name? The original name of this station was Sheppard station. Back in the day, this station was strictly a part of the Yonge-University-Spadina line, which is now line 1. The Sheppard line (line 4) wasn't built. When line 4 had arrived, this station needed a more meaningful name to indicate that it was a hub for lines 1 and 4. So, Sheppard leads because it's the original name on the Yonge line. It's also the namesake of line 4. When I worked at Yonge and Eglinton over a decade ago, I'd travel from Bassarion (line 4) to Sheppard-Yonge station, and then transfer southbound on line 1 to get to Eglinton. During rush hour, when I did this transfer, I always felt like I was a fish swimming upstream because commuters would be coming at me in the opposite direction. I don't miss that part of commuting during rush hour. Commuting during off-peak hours is less stressful! The passport office is near this station. I remember leaving work for a few hours to get my passport renewed. It was convenient taking line 1 to and from this station. It's also convenient that you can get to Yonge Sheppard Centre without going outside. This station is connected to this shopping centre, which helps when the weather isn't the greatest. This station has four floors. I remember accessing levels 3 and 4 the most to switch between lines 1 and 4. There are stairs, escalators, and elevators to get you to all floors. I never used the elevators, but I know that they were wheelchair-accessible. There are bus routes that you can catch from this station. The 97 Yonge and 84 Sheppard West have been around for eons. Due to line 4 being in full force, you catch the 85 Sheppard East bus from Don Mills station. It used to depart from this station when line 4 didn't exist. I haven't been to Yonge Sheppard Centre in ages. When I visit this area these days, I normally drive and figure out where to park. I'm contemplating parking at a TTC lot and coming here by subway instead to change things up. I also like reliving my past commuter life. (500)

The newest station on line 1 north of the Wilson Yards and currently the most northern station on…read morethe Spadina side of line 1 also the terminus station on the west side as well. The previous terminus (Wilson) has the multiple parking lots and much more parking since it was the previous end of the line just on the other side of the 401 at the much busy Yorkdale complex. Downsview station located at the south east corner of Allen and Sheppard is where Sheppard makes that dramatic detour around the Downsview airport runway near Chesswood. This station does have a north side entrance as well as a kiss and ride pickup area with actual parking spots instead of a rotary type hub like Finch or Kipling. Access to the parking and drop off area is accessible at the access road just east of Allen on the south side of Sheppard and access to just the parking lot is also available on the east side of Allen south of Sheppard. The parking lot at Downsview seems rather small but with room to grow if needed. Now that Downsview will no longer be the terminus station for this leg of line 1 after the extension to Vaughan is complete it's yet to be determined if more parking is even required. The station is has a large surface area for buses on both sides of the bus depot. The bus depot services quite a few bus routes from here: 84 Sheppard West begins west of Sheppard station (at Yonge) along Sheppard and crosses at Allen while remains on Sheppard to Weston road where it loops back around at Bradstock and Rivalda before heading back east. 101 Downsview Park is a very short route that simply goes around the Sheppard hump turns left on John Drury to Carl Hall road into the park. 104 Faywood runs between Downsview and Wilson stations. It takes a route from Wilson from Ansford to Faywood which turns into Wilmington north of Sheppard to Finch Ave, goes west to Dufferin and then turns to Kennard and down to Wilson Heights and then back to Sheppard to Downview station. 105 Dufferin North runs into Vaughan and requires additional fare when north of Steeles avenue. This route runs north on Dufferin and loops at Confederation parkway and then east on Rutherford road before turning back south again. 106 York University runs west along the Sheppard hump and then north on Sentinel road to York University main campus in a clockwise direction meeting The Pond road at six o'clock and Ian Macdonald before turning back to Sentinel going south. 107 Keele North has many variants but for the most part the 107C is the main route which makes its way west along the Sheppard hump through the industrial area near Tuscan Gate toe Keele and then north as far as Teston road in Vaughan. Same as the 105 additional fare is required north of Steeles avenue. 108 Downsview main run 108B runs west on the Sheppard hump to Arleta avenue and up Driftwood north of Finch to Strong Court and then briefly along Jane street before turning right back onto Driftwood again before heading south bound. 117 Alness runs up Allen/Dufferin to a dedicated bus roadway that runs parallel and north of Finch Ave to Alness up to Steeles and bakc down Dufferin. This route around the roadway and Alness runs clockwise before 3pm and counter clockwise after 3pm. As for the train platform it's long and wide with an arched roof. The trains on line 1 of course are wider than the Bloor/Danforth line 2 but the design of this station lends to more space and feels much more open than a majority of the older stations in the TTC system.

To get to work I have to transfer on Jane and Hwy 7 going Northbound at around 8 am. . My first bus usually arrives late for me to catch the connecting bus on the intersection. The first time this happened, I left the bus, and the second (connecting bus) was already at the bus stop, ready to leave. However, when he saw me, he pulled over and waited. I think it was just a random kind of kindness. However, its been two weeks now. That same bus driver now waits every single day just for me, waiting for me to cross the road and get on. If more people would be like this kind man, the world would be a better place!!!! I really believe this bus driver should get a raise and some kind of award "Driver of the Year" or honored in some kind of way. Events like these, early in the morning, really just make my day!!!!

DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY…read more They also operate under the name Coach Bus Charter Toronto. This was by far the worst transportation / customer experience I've ever had. We hired this company for a day with multiple stops for a work industry event with 25 passengers. Our experience started badly when the manager was rude on the phone at the time of booking, and went from bad to worse when the bus broke down at the start of the day when we still had 3 more stops to make. The bus driver called his boss (the owner) who I then spoke to on the phone and he told us to get Ubers to our next location instead, which he'd pay for. Then when I called him back half an hour later to find out how they were planning on getting us a new bus for the remainder of the day (we had 2 more stops to go) the owner proceeded to GASLIGHT me, saying this was the first he was hearing about a bus breaking down. He made me explain the entire situation to him again, and then became defensive and refused to take accountability. I've never been treated so poorly by someone in a customer service role. Not only was the owner rude and disrespectful, but he seemed uninterested in helping rectify the situation. I had to keep calling back to ask about how they were planning on providing us with transportation for the rest of the day until he agreed on sending a smaller bus for the return trip. Then, believe it or not, that bus ALSO BROKE DOWN. We had to take taxis for the return trip. I wish I was making this up, but as you can see from other reviews this truly is one of the worst companies out there. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. All in all, it was a total waste of time and a very stressful day trying to quickly pivot to make other transportation plans for 25 people, not to mention being yelled at on the phone by someone you're paying to provide a service for you...
