Erindale, Mississauga
Erindale is an historical neighbourhood located within the central part of the city of Mississauga, west of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

The centre of the old village is just to the east of the Credit River valley. A large campus of the University of Toronto, known as University of Toronto Mississauga, is located on the west bank of the river. Rivière du Credit During the 17th and 18th centuries, French trappers named the river on which Erindale sits as "Rivière du Credit".

Erindale GO Station
Erindale GO Station is a GO Transit railway station on the Milton line in the Greater Toronto Area, Ontario, Canada. It is located at 1320 Rathburn Road West, just east of the Credit River in the Creditview neighbourhood of Mississauga, west of the Square One area. Like many other GO stations, Erindale offers parking facilities, and has a station building which houses ticket sales and includes a waiting room. Erindale acted as a terminus for the midday trains that GO Transit once operated on the Milton Line during the early to mid-1990s, but these trains no longer run. Although ridership on the Milton line has grown beyond GO's expectations, it is not possible to run more trains, because the tracks are already busy with Canadian Pacific Kansas City freight traffic. In order to increase capacity, GO has extended the platforms to accommodate trains with twelve carriages rather than the previous ten. Erindale was most recently upgraded and is now fully wheel chair accessible. A co ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
