York University GO Station

York University GO Station officially opened on September 6, 2002, the result of an $850,000 provincial investment. It featured a single platform on the west track, equipped with passenger shelters and a ticket vending machine. Downsview Park station was initially conceived as a full replacement for York University GO Station, given its direct link to the Keele Campus via the Toronto–York Spadina Subway Extension. However, opposition from university members and a local councillor prevented York University GO Station's immediate closure. Instead, a compromise kept the station operational, albeit in a limited capacity, when Downsview Park station began serving GO trains on December 30, 2017. By October of that year, the station had been removed from schedules and the GO Transit website, and by February 2021, it no longer appeared on GO Transit's system map. On July 19, 2021, Metrolinx announced the permanent closure of York University GO Station, with demolition scheduled to make way for expanded Barrie line tracks. The station was demolished in April 2022. ==Services==

From January 2018 to March 2020, weekday service consisted of eight southbound morning trains to Union Station, seven northbound afternoon trains to Allandale Waterfront GO Station, and one northbound evening train to Bradford GO Station. With the opening of Downsview Park station in December 2017, weekend service to this station was discontinued. These shuttles, which ranged from full-sized transit buses to smaller vans, ferried passengers between the Keele Campus, off-campus housing, and the GO platform. ==References==
