    Lakeshore East GO Trains

    are not running this weekend. not whining, it is what it is and they can't pick the "right" weekend for these sort of things.

    However, for those coming from the east end - what are you doing? driving in, subway instead? My dad is out that way and I'm trying to help him out (let's just say he's not really a navigating the city type

    Thanks!

    Yup, I wish there were more Argos afternoon games too. It would be so easier to keep up with everything. For me, at least.

    They're running buses from station to station to Union from Durham, I assume it's skipping and express from Pickering to Union.
    No service from Port Union as those have been asked to use TTC

    It's not life and death

    Think there might be some TTC disruptions on line 1 if I got dates and time correct. - http://www.ttc.ca/Service_Advisories/Subway_closures/Oct_26_SD_StClair-Union.jsp.

    Lots of parking at Wardan subway but stay south of Eglinton to avoid the LRT construction if you drive in that far from the east.

    looking forward to the game. Was a rough year but I guess we can't win every year.

    Welcome on board the leaky ship called Argos. Hopefully, at least some of the holes will be plugged by next year.

    With this option do you take the subway to Union then GO to Exhibition? Trying to avoid driving all the way in and trying to find parking around BMO.

    On a Saturday, I would take the easy drive in. I have never found a problem finding parking. With our less than stellar crowds, it’s not even an issue. Right up to kickoff, you can park beside the stadium for $25. A little slow getting out, but not if you take your time after or leave early. Even so, the wait is shorter than waiting for trains. Cheaper alternatives for $15, $10 if your early, across the tracks in Liberty Village.

    Yeah, I'm going to bite the bullet, pay $25 and drive.
