Union Pearson Express
The Union Pearson Express (UP Express) is a passenger train service in the Greater Toronto Area, running between Canada's two busiest transportation hubs, Union Station in Downtown Toronto, and Toronto Pearson International Airport. The UP Express began operation on June 6, 2015, in time for the 2015 Pan American Games. The UP Express travels between Union and Pearson in 25 minutes departing every 15 minutes, seven days a week. An adult fare from Union to Pearson is C$27.50, with reduced fare prices based on age as well as additional discounts for Presto card users and airport staff. At the launch announcement, it was stated that UP is projected to carry 2.35 million passengers annually, and eliminate approximately 1.2 million car trips in the first year.〔 UP Express is a division of Metrolinx, the Ontario government agency that manages and integrates transportation in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. An airport rail link was one of the priority projects identified in Metrolinx's regional transportation plan, The Big Move. Construction began in 2011 as part of the Georgetown South Project, which expanded the rail corridor the UP Express shares with its sister division GO Transit, and with Via Rail.〔 UP Express uses diesel multiple unit (DMU) trains that meet United States Environmental Protection Agency Tier 4 emission standards. The Kitchener line and UP Express will be electrified, although no date has been set The UP Express has been criticized for not using electric trains from the outset, and for fare prices that are high compared to other North American airport-city connections. ==History==
