History
Wilson Station was opened in what was then the Borough of North York as the last station in the 1978 subway line extension north from St. George Station.
Wilson was the northern terminus of the Spadina line for eighteen years and a major hub for TTC bus service, but with the extension to Downsview Station in 1996, many of the bus routes were moved from the station.
