Bloor GO Station is a railway station on GO Transit's Kitchener line and Union Pearson Express rail services, located in Toronto, Ontario, on Bloor Street east of Dundas Street West. It is near Dundas West station on the TTC's Bloor–Danforth line, but is not directly connected to it.

The station is located north of Bloor Street West between Lansdowne Avenue and Dundas Street West. Bloor Street dips down here to cross under all the tracks, and the station is reached by stairs from its north sidewalk.

Bloor station serves eastbound and westbound Kitchener line and UP Express trains on the Weston Subdivision, locally oriented northwest-southeast. Following the Georgetown South railway expansion in 2015, the Weston subdivision is designed to have four tracks with two island platforms, each with a high-level section for the UP Express and a low-level section for the Kitchener line. However, as of 2016, the line only has three tracks, making the northernmost platform effectively a side platform.

Parallel to these tracks along their southwest side, is the Galt Subdivision which carries the Milton line. There is no platform for Milton line services, so those trains pass by the station without stopping. GO has considered adding the station to the Milton line, but it is not in current plans.

Until 1996 there was an additional parallel track on the northeast side of the station which belonged to the Canadian Pacific Railway and was used for access to local industries. Its former right-of-way is now used for the West Toronto Railpath, providing a pedestrian and cyclist connection to the neighbourhoods to the north, east, and south. Covered bicycle parking is located at the station's entrances from the path. Bloor is one of the few GO stations which does not have any parking for cars.
