    Few questions about getting to games via Oshawa Go Trains?

    Someone on here must take the Go from Oshawa. I'm trying to decide whether to attempt to make the Varsity game or hit the Lakers lacrosse game as we have seasons there as well. Thing is my wife doesn't get off work in downtown Peterborough until 4:30pm. With this being the first time we'll attempt to get to the Oshawa Go I won't even know fastest routes. I don't want to take the time to attempt this and show up real late for a 7pm start. Love where we live but this is when it becomes a pain. We're actually half an hour further out from home.

    How long does it take from Oshawa to Union?

    For years I took the Go from Port Credit to CNE and then Union so I knew timing and it was pretty fast.

    Hoping that once my mom moves to the area that she'll pet sit so we can do a few over nights.

    According to the Go Transit schedule there is a 5:41pm train that leaves from Oshawa Go Station and gets into Union Station at 6:41pm. That might be cutting it close though since you will be leaving from Peterborough after 4:30pm. According to Google Map Peterborough to Oshawa Go is a 55 minute drive. The next train leaves from Oshawa Go Station at 6:38pm and gets into Union Station at 7:41pm.

    From experience, either drive to Don Mills Subway stop or all the way downtown.

    Thanks! Not looking forward to this new game day experience. Weekend games will be ok. Having to worry about getting home for our pets is the main issue. It would be nice to avoid the drive back and forth.

    An hour ride from Oshawa to Union? Really got to get an express train in there.

    It is almost the same from Burlington. Public transit is always encouraged, but when it takes twice as long, you can't blame people for driving, (traffic not withstanding).

    After leaving Mississauga in Oct of 02 I find driving in the GTA to be a pain. I have to admit driving in The Kawarthas is heaven even compared to Vancouver Island. I really have to get pumped up before GTA driving with perks like stops at cool markets. Taking my wife to and from Pearson twice from here and Fan Day last week had us stopping at Yummy European Market, Patel Brothers Market and Nova European Deli. Those perks are great when you love the wide world of great eats like we do. Driving back and forth for Argo games isn't something I want to do plus my wife doesn't drive. My health suffers raging at all of the fools I witness on their handheld's etc.

    Check out pages 8 & 9 of last year's pre-season game thread titled "Exhibition game at Varsity Stadium." Sorry, I don't know how to post a link to it.

    Thanks.

    It looks like the following are all good options:

    Madison Avenue Pub
    Fox and Fiddle
    Duke of York
    The Bedford Acadamy
    Bar Mercurio
    Gabby's

    If there is even 1 single ticket left UNSOLD, the Argo's have FAILED miserably...

    This stadium holds "family, friends, and maybe another 60 or so fans"....seriously???...its not sold out?

    Its a joke if it wasnt sold out, just through the season ticket holder base.

    Tell me im wrong...otherwise somebody has dropped the ball bigtime

    Did Hamilton sell out their preseason game at Ron Joyce Stadium this past Saturday?
