Agincourt GO Station is a GO Transit railway station in the Scarborough area of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, served by Stouffville line trains.HistoryThe station's track was once used by Toronto and Nipissing Railway and later Grand Trunk Railway and finally by CN Rail. TNR opened a station at Agincourt in 1871 (not to be mistaken for CPR Agincourt station located further east) and was later demolished and not replaced until GO established service in the area in 1982 (and rebuilt a station structure in the 1990s).Connecting transitThe Toronto Transit Commission's 85 Sheppard East and 190 Scarborough Centre Rocket bus routes links Agincourt Station to Don Mills station in the west, the 85 continues east into Scarborough while the 190 continues express to Scarborough Centre station. The proposed Sheppard East LRT would create a grade-separation of the rail line at Sheppard Avenue East (this started in December, 2009), with a connection from the LRT platform to the GO platform. But now it seems that plans have been made to build a second track from Agincourt to Markham GO so the line will operate on weekends. The Rob Ford administration saw a cancellation of the LRT projects, with an intended Sheppard subway line extension; however, on March 22, 2012 Toronto City council voted to reinstate the Sheppard LRT project and construction should restart sometime within the next few years.
