Fun Fact: Did you know there are over 40 new GO Transit Stations proposed across the network? Once completed, the General Toronto & Hamilton Area will have over 110 GO Stations, and potentially up to 11 regional rail lines.
Tomorrow, GO Transit will continue to run a significantly reduced rail service schedule on all lines due to derailment-related infrastructure damage, and restricted capacity in the Union Station Rail Corridor.

Delays and cancellations are to be expected.

In 2025 I made 66 graphics and maps for the WB62 accounts, redesigned my infographics, and redid my profile branding

I truly love doing this as a hobby, and I hope you learned something new from one of my posts this year!

I couldn’t thank everyone enough for following me!

Wrapping up the year with my collection of PRESTO cards reaching 33!

This year a total of 10 limited edition PRESTO cards were released, the most special types of cards ever made in a single year.
Something I started 5 years ago was a collection of GO Transit memorabilia.

After half a decade I’ve managed to collect almost 500 pieces: tickets, pamphlets, anything related to GO!

The history of GO is important to preserve and I think this is a great way to remember it:

Was anyone at the Confederation GO Station grand opening last Monday?
