Pros
- A great option for intercity passengers who want to avoid departing from Ottawa Station near downtown
- Seamless connecting from VIA to OC Transpo (platforms are less than a minute from each other)
- Future connection with the O-Train rapid transit network
Cons
- Remote, isolated station with poor walkability
- Even through the Ottawa International Airport is nearby, there is no direct bus service. What is a 17 minute drive becomes a 1 hour long trip via bus and the O-Train
Notes
- Fallowfield Station was the site of the tragic Ottawa bus-train crash on September 18, 2013 where a double decker OC Transpo bus collided with a VIA train at the level crossing. Six people lost their lives.
