Do you use GO Transit, the Toronto area public transit system?
The next time you miss your GO Train, you can have the assurance of catching the next departure even if it's a VIA Rail train! How? GO VIA Pak, a package that lets you combine GO Transit and VIA departures!
The result: a wider selection of departures, arrive more often on time and travel at a discount fare.
What is GO VIA Pak?
Specifically designed for GO Transit monthly pass or 10 Ride Ticket holders, a GO VIA Pak card lets you ride VIA Rail trains between the same stations covered by your GO Transit pass or tickets.
Where can I go?
You can travel between Toronto's Union Station and 5 stations in the area served by both VIA Rail and GO Transit: Oshawa, Oakville, Aldershot, Brampton and Georgetown. All trips must begin or end at Union Station.
All the comforts of VIA Rail for less
Your GO VIA Pak only costs you the difference between GO Transit and VIA Rail fares. Depending on the station, 10 trips with VIA will only cost you:
Aldershot
Oakville
Georgetown
Brampton
Oshawa
$62.00
$55.75
$47.00
$58.00
$90.50
Regular adult fare in Comfort class (economy) before taxes
How do I use a GO VIA Pak?
A GO VIA Pak contains 10 coupons valid for 10 one-way trips between Toronto's Union Station and one of the five stations mentioned above.
Once aboard a VIA train, you simply have to show your GO Transit 10 Ride Ticket* or monthly pass along with a GO VIA Pak ticket. It's as simple as that!
The coupons are not subject to an expiry date.
Where do I get a GO VIA Pak?
You can buy your GO VIA Pak only at a VIA Rail ticket counter (and not from GO Transit) in one of the stations covered. You can also obtain a GO VIA Pak by calling your travel agent or directly from VIA by phoning (toll free) 1 888 VIA RAIL (1 888 842 7245).
