Toronto Union stat missing VIA Rail

edit

Union used to be in the second spot on this list. Currently it is only referencing the passenger statistics for GO Transit. It is missing UP Express, Amtrak (May be included in the VIA Rail stats since the Maple Leaf is run by VIA while in Canada) and (most importantly) VIA Rail. The Wiki article for Union Station claims 2.91 million passengers for VIA Rail in 2012. Who knows what it was in 2018. TokyoBackstreet (talk) 20:33, 6 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Visitors

edit

Perhaps poorly sourced, but this article used to have data on visitors to these stations, including non-passengers. Linking that here, in case someone wants to view or restore the content. ɱ (talk) 16:57, 26 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Jamaica numbers

edit

I don't see any sources for the 59 million number for Jamaica. The source given is a broken link (says Page not found). On the page for Jamaica station, it says 200,000 daily riders, but the source for that is an 81-page report (2017 Ridership Book) that doesn't specifically mention entries or exits at Jamaica. I don't doubt that at least 200,000 people pass through Jamaica every day, but the vast majority are not getting on or off there, and maybe half or less are changing trains. The number just seems very inflated to me (I lived in Jamaica for many years and I am very familiar with the station and surroundings.). Mirza Ahmed (talk) 06:40, 4 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
