Niagara Falls station in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada is served by the ''Maple Leaf'' train between Toronto and New York City. On weekends and holidays in the summer it is also served by GO Transit excursion trains operating by way of the Lakeshore West line between Toronto and Niagara Falls. 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. The station was formerly staffed by Via Rail, but the ticket agent was replaced by an automated kiosk in October 2012.〔(Niagara Falls Review:End of the line for Via staff )〕 The station is wheelchair-accessible, and offers free long-term parking.
