A pedestrian has died after getting struck by a GO train between Port Credit and Clarkson Wednesday afternoon.

Police are investigating the incident which caused significant delays for GO train riders on the Lakeshore West and Lakeshore East lines. Service had to be suspended along a portion of the Lakeshore, a number of trains were cancelled and passengers from the incident train had to be evacuated onto buses to continue along the portion of the line where service was suspended.

Those delays were cleared around 4:20 p.m., about two hours after the fatal incident occurred.

There are some delays, cancellations&adjustments due to fatality on LSW. Thanks for your patience as we work to get everyone home — GO Transit (@GOtransit) December 24, 2014
