The work stoppage that has resulted from the union failure to negotiate a new contract with the two national railways will impact the Metrolinx’s Milton line and the Lakeshore line’s Hamilton GO station.
Metrolinx said: “The only impacts we will have during the labour disruption are to the Milton line and Hamilton GO station. The rest of the Lakeshore West line is not impacted by the labour disruption.
As a result of the ongoing labour disruption, GO train services on the Milton line and at Hamilton GO station are temporarily suspended due to the interruption of rail traffic services provided by Canadian Pacific Kansas City. All other GO lines, the UP Express and Lakeshore West line stations are not impacted. The Canadian National Railway Company labour disruption does not affect any GO or UP Express services.
Hamilton GO station customers are able to access services at West Harbour GO (approximately 1.5 km from Hamilton GO), Aldershot GO or use normally scheduled GO Bus service on Route 16.
Customers on the Milton line are encouraged to consider local transit options or access GO Transit services on the Lakeshore West or Kitchener lines as an alternative.
