Intercity bus transportation

(01-24-2023, 10:47 PM)plam Wrote: Speaking of Flixbus, they are not running Waterloo-Toronto daily at the moment, which is pretty annoying. I think there is no service on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Wtf?

Also there seems to be no way to get to Toronto in the afternoon by transit that takes less than 2.75 hours, unless Flixbus is running.

On weekdays only there is a 2:47 GO train that arrives at 4:18 28..just barely "afternoon" in my books.

There's also a via train at 12:04 arriving at 1:38 and a GO train again weekdays only at 11:45 arriving at 1:16 28.

So there are some options.

As an aside. WTAF is wrong with Via Rail...why is their route...which makes fewer stops using a lighter faster train SLOWER!

Honestly...sometimes I wonder how it is possible to be this bad at running transit.

Edit: Apparently the fault here lies with Google maps...because apparently when I say "Toronto" it gave me travel times to Bloor Station .... but only for GO which stops at Bloor the Via train times were to Union. But none of that was clear in the summary of times, because why would something irrelevant like destination be a pertinent piece of information when planning travel.
