GO Transit Keeps Reduced Schedules Into Wednesday After Union Station Derailment

Significant signal-system damage requires repair then testing before full service resumes.

Overview

  • Metrolinx says the derailed GO train was rerailled and removed, with most track repairs completed but signal infrastructure still damaged.
  • Wednesday service runs on limited frequencies across multiple lines, including 15–30 minutes in peaks and 60 minutes off‑peak on Lakeshore East and West and 30‑minute peak on Kitchener.
  • UP Express has returned to its regular 15‑minute frequency after operating at reduced intervals earlier.
  • No injuries were reported; an investigation is underway, with Metrolinx pledging to release findings once available.
  • Impacted riders can request fare refunds under GO’s Service Guarantee, and TTC provided extra buses, streetcars and additional Line 1 trains to absorb displaced commuters.
