The station consists of two connected island platforms serving four tracks. The outermost pair of tracks runs the full length of the station and serves the Terminal Link on the southern platform, while the innermost pair terminates halfway along the station and serves the Union Pearson Express on the northern platform. Both platforms are climate-controlled, and access to trains is via platform screen doors.
Historyedit
Terminal 1 station opened in July 2006 as a terminus of the three-station Link Train (now known as the Terminal Link). The structure included support pillars allowing the station to be expanded to serve a future airport rail link to downtown Toronto.[1]
In July 2010, Metrolinx, Toronto's regional transport agency, announced it would create a mainline rail connection to Pearson Airport from Union Station. Construction of the spur began in June 2012 at a budget of C$128.6 million.[2] By June 2013 the bulk of the structure including caissons, columns and girders were complete and the first beam of the new station was poured.[3] The station shell was completed by December 2013.
The Terminal Link operates every four minutes throughout most of the day, and every eight minutes between 7:30am and 11:30am, and between 11:30pm and 3:30am.[5] The full trip to Viscount station takes under four minutes.[1]
The Union Pearson Express operates every 15 minutes throughout the day, with a 25-minute travel time to Union Station in Downtown Toronto.[6]
Ticket vending machines for UP Express are found at the entrance from the airport. There is a cold beverage vending machine located at the end of the platform.
