Niagara Falls station is a railway station in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. It is served by the Maple Leaf train between Toronto and New York City. It is also the terminus of GO Transit's Lakeshore West line towards Toronto. Niagara Falls is served by one peak-direction GO train per weekday, plus additional service on weekends and holidays in the summer.

The Maple Leaf is a joint Amtrak–Via Rail service: ticketing is shared, and trains consist of Amtrak equipment but are operated on the Toronto–Niagara Falls portion of the route by Via crews. The station was formerly served by additional Via trains operating as part of Corridor services, but these were discontinued in 2012.

GO Transit was expected to expand full-time rail service along the Niagara Branch to Niagara Falls by 2023 and with it upgrades to the station.[1]

The station is wheelchair-accessible, and offers free long-term parking.

History

The Victorian Gothic Revival style station was built as the terminus for Great Western Railway (1879–1882) and Grand Trunk Railway (1882–1923).[2] The station was renovated in 1951 and 1967 (east wing with restaurant was partially demolished) and again in the 1980s or 1990s.[3] It was later acquired by CN Rail (1923–1970s) and is now used by Via Rail (1970s–) and GO Transit.

The station was formerly staffed by Via Rail, but the ticket agent was replaced by an automated kiosk in October 2012.[4]

Customs

For trains to the US, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers handle passengers upon entry into the US at the Niagara Falls Station and Customhouse Interpretive Center in Niagara Falls, New York just over the Whirlpool Bridge.
