my, sad health news, love the support news! go easy but be fiesty, both of ya

>>> Can anyone help me? If I get a taxi from Pearson to Union Station – are there plenty of regular trains to Hamilton?

i think char is a train vet with thorough info but the answer is 'not really'... the url with sched is at www.gotransit.com, i'm checking westbound from Union to Hamilton ...do you need to go to downtown T.O. (Union) first or can you not take cab or airport limo directly (Hwy#403) from Pearson airport to Hamilton? probably same rate as going to Union and way less time depending on arrival day/time...

this thread has trickled out into many, many directions, lol...thx for the St.P&M link, char!

oh, glad i've clarified here, Gaby... weekends looks like you have to transfer to bus at Oakville...whereas on weekdays the train goes all the way to Hamilton from about 4:30 pm until 6:35 pm (the green shading means train)...char, help! these scheds make me dizzy, so does the Union train platforms but not as scarey as London underground maps!
