There is always a cafe car and real perk is they serve Starbucks coffee. It's now all cashless. Have also taken the late train out of NYC that has a dining car. You are served with China, sterling silver flatware and coffee pot and white table linens. Have recently taken the train out of the downtown station. The train left after 4am and we were in NYC between noon and 1pm. It was the perfect option for our transatlantic cruise that was departing at 7pm. The cruise port is only 2 miles away but with Manhattan traffic it was 20-25 minutes. For most of the ride I was able to have my own seat so was able to nap. Once we got to Poughkeepsie every seat was filled. When we arrived in NYC there were a good number of conductors to easily guide you in the right directions.

The train service is generally reliable, and the connection to local MiWay buses makes it convenient for getting around the city. The station is wheelchair accessible and has a ticket booth, seats, and basic amenities, and it's easy to navigate. Parking is available but fills up fast during rush hours. One of the nicest things about this station is its location--you can step outside and be just minutes from Port Credit's shops, restaurants, and lakeside parks.

It was easy to take the TTC subway to Union Station, and the station itself was easy to navigate thanks to the numerous signs throughout. One tip: check the departure screens for platform information, as your train's platform may not be posted until closer to departure time. It was a little difficult to find staff when I had questions, but fellow travelers were generally friendly and willing to help. The station is beautiful and has many shops to browse while waiting for your train. I also found the train fares to be reasonable.

After an easy drive on the QEW, we entered the town of Hamilton. Then the drive turned nerve-wracking as the streets narrowed, the stop lights multiplied, and the neighborhoods became numerous. All these things made the stop and go execution painful. When we finally arrived at the GO station, we were confused because there are NO signs indicating that the Station entrance is for BOTH trains and buses. Because we were looking for the Toronto bus and could only see train tracks, we drove around the block and turned into a neighborhood looking for help. Luckily, a nice lady saw us and told us they were one in the same, and that we could park on the RIGHT side of the road in a drop-off area. There were signs, but too small to actually read while driving on the two-lane one-way street. All in all, very confusing and just too stressful. We'll use another GO station further east to avoid this next time!

The station is named for nearby St. Patrick's Church. It is located under University Avenue at Dundas Street and the station does feature a free wifi network. For me, it was quite close to Chinatown. As with several other stations, St. Patrick has a center platform which means that the doors of the train will open on the left. The station does have access for handicapped and I was able to ride an escalator from the platform level to the ticketing level and then stairs for me to the surface.
