TORONTO – All GO Transit trains are not running amid what is being called a network-wide system failure.
The outage is also affecting the rail service connecting downtown Toronto to Pearson International Airport.
Metrolinx, which operates GO Transit and the UP Express airport rail service, says a CN Rail system failure is affecting all rail corridors.
It says trains are holding at their nearest stations.
Metrolinx says in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that its teams are working with CN to resolve the issue quickly.
GO Transit, which runs commuter trains across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, says on its website that customers should consider taking alternative travel options.
