  • サマリー

  • As Toronto Pearson became an increasingly important airport in the 1980s, the necessity for a proper connection to downtown Toronto became obvious to planners. Various studies and failed projects would ultimately lead to the opening of the Union Pearson Express, also referred to as UPX and UP Express, in June 2015. The 22.5km line runs between Toronto Pearson Terminal 1 and Union Station, with intermediate stops at Weston and Bloor. It is operated by Metrolinx and runs using Nippon Sharryo DMU train sets, a unique type in Canada. The line operates every 15 minutes and offers the quickest link between Downtown Toronto and Toronto Pearson. While at first it was far from successful, the line has become increasingly popular leading to questions about it's future and potential upgrades needed. Let's explore how UP Express came to be, after decades of planning and failed projects.
