It takes nearly 5 minutes to go from "just arriving at Union" to "stopped at the platform". That kind of delay is insane, and doesn't happen at other stations I'm aware of.
That's down to the track control systems in the area around the station, which are in desperate need of upgrade. That will be done in the coming years as the GO lines are electrified and signals upgraded.
