Go bus from Markham to McMaster and vice versa
I was trying to search for information on this on the GO website, but I got really confused.

So if I want to take the GO bus to McMaster from the Markham GO Station (or vice versa), which bus do I take? I'm pretty sure I need to transfer at Union station... How much would it cost all together?

You can take the 47 from the GO terminal at McMaster, it will take you to York U. Then you would take the 52 from York U to Markham.

Edit: It would cost 13.55 for a one way ticket, 110.25$ for 10 student tickets or 321.00$ for a student monthly pass.

Oh yeah, when I say Markham I mean Markham GO Station.
The 52 and 47 don't run on Saturdays by the way.

Approximate time:
2 hours and 20 minutes on Friday going to Markham

The 52 doesn't stop at Markham GO station on Sundays... so you'll have to take the train and transfer a bunch...

Taking the 407 is kind of time consuming due to the amount of stoppage with the 407. You can always buy a ticket from the machine from Markham Go Station --> Hamilton. Somehow it was cheaper than purchasing each individual ticket.

I normally go from Markham Station --> Union ---> QEW Express.

1) Stouffville Go Bus/Train
2) QEW Express
