Top tips for finding Toronto train tickets
- Before taking a train to Toronto, we recommend checking your train’s status online. By doing so, you can get notifications of any changes in your journey. Additionally, accessing services online allows you to bypass the ticket counter since you can print your boarding pass at home or just display it on your smartphone. However, it is still important to arrive at the station at least half an hour before your departure or an hour before for long-haul trains to Toronto.
- You can travel to Toronto by train any day of the week. However, you might consider planning your train trip on Sunday, since tickets tend to be slightly less expensive. On the other hand, Thursday might be the most expensive day to travel. Therefore, you can save some money by aligning your arrangements appropriately.

- To most travelers, pets are family. If you want your furry friend to tag along on your train trip to Toronto, they can do so. However, be sure to place your pet in a well-ventilated carrier. The carrier needs to be big enough to allow your pet to stand up, lie down, and turn around with ease. Most importantly, ensure that your pet remains inside the carrier during the entire trip.
