    Well there's actually two versions of York Mills, in one the 's' is more prominent than in the other, since i ride the Yonge line everyday; i've notcied that if you listen carefully you'll here the 'S'. I haven't noticed the one with Summerhill though, maybe a pause between Summer and Hill. I...

    Thanks ando, It looks awesome! The lights seem very nice. I don't care much for the computerized voice they used, takes away from the modern fell of the train. I like our current ones, hopefully they'll use those instead.

    TTC: Stations that Need Improvements

    Small improvement to St. George station. Last week the sandblasted signs on the platform wall (not the wall you face when you wait) got a fresh coat of green paint. And the signs on the strapline got a fresh coat of white paint. I noticed this when they had put "wet Paint" signs around each...

    Mystery Toronto Subway Lines?

    Yesterday, heading southbound from Sheppard-Yonge on the Yonge line I witnessed a tunnel fully lit that I never saw, the weird thing is that it was heading downhill, under the station... so I doubt it's for accessing the Sheppard line, anyone know what it is for?

    The screens are a good idea, but they won't be used to their maximum potential, mainly because of the number of screens per car... And people most people (not all) really appreciate things like this, I however do. Unfortunately these screens aren't a major feature with these trains, there are...

    Disappearing Subway Maps

    Got my copy today, its pretty nice! All glossy and all. I assume it was printed in April 2009 judging from the date at the bottom.

    NOCTIS: Hey there, there is a very simple explanation for why you aren't getting your question answered; There is no answer for your question! Not yet, atleast. We try our best to provide answers, but we can't if there isn't any. Unless there's someone here who works for on the actual trains...

    I don't see why everyone is so worried about the delivery, I mean, they'll eventually be delivered, its mere lack of patience. They aren't just going to throw away built trains just because they're off schedule, they'll be delivered. I'm tired of waiting too, but I'd rater have them delivered...

    1233 Queen East | ?m | 8s

    noctis- they'll be delivered, but hey all those little details are what makes them awesome, and worthwile. Take the T1's they're great trains but their brakes sound horribly treacherous, this is one thing i hope the TR's won't have... I wonder what makes the H series brakes sound less...

    1233 Queen East | ?m | 8s

    I think that they should keep it the same, and use they actual chime from the H series, I thin H4 has the best one.The chime is the first three notes in the sesame street song... I think they should keep it because it soubds a lot better than all the other ones on other subway systems, and hey...

    Interesting, I see that the damaged T1 ares still there. Is there any difference with these new GO Cars? The look exactly the same... Anyone know whats up with those cars in the middle of a field, with grey paint on them at Wilson yard?

    Something I like about the sound that train makes is that it reminds me of the sound an H5 makes when accelerating only more futuristic.

    I think we're getting a bit off topic here... I'm sure there is another thread more appropiate for these conversations. This is just me, but I want this thread updated when there's something directly concerning the TR's. Sometimes its annoying to see replies that don't give any info on the...

    There has been a question on how the new TR's are going to sound like, so I think I found a pretty good source. Transit toronto says that they'll use Bombardier MITRAC for the train propulsion Well I found a train that uses Bombardier MITRAC and this is what it sounds like...

    Noctis - Yeah, I think he was being sarcastic, they don't need to be charged, they can run indefinitely becaise of the electric rail that constantly give it energy. Anyone know why T1's brakes sound so loud and squeaky when they stop? I mean sometimes they sound worse than the H4's brakes.
