    Toronto Pinnacle Lakeside (Phase 1) | 174.86m | 54s | Pinnacle | Hariri Pontarini

    So highways are only worthwhile if they're congested messes? East Gardiner is one of the only portions of any highway in the city that actually isn't over capacity i.e. functions as intended, for a majority of the time. And it's not going to cost the city a single penny to maintain anymore.

    Toronto GO Transit: Davenport Diamond Grade Separation | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Hopefully somebody asked CP about this. CN/MX/OnCorr may not like it but none of them have the final say in the matter. Answered you own question - Both head end crew members on VIA trains are LE's. An LE understands the braking capabilities of a train regardless of his postion(or at least one...

    On another note... here's something you don't see everyday in Canada - video footage of that CN/EXO train crash in Montreal from last November: Gotta admit this much, Crash National doing a bang-up job of maintaining their reputation 👍

    Sure but the GO system was definitely experiencing its own crowding problems as well. Apparently some platforms at Union were taking up 10+ minutes just to clear when unloading. Not as many as you necessarily think, booking off means losing out on stat pay. Christmas is worse for that. All...

    Good eye they do look photoshopped in there, the loco is huge but not quite to that degree. The editor probably tried to eyeball it but ended up with a case of

    Same here! And that they are 😅 Word is the crew received a restricting signal to enter the block the EXO train was stopped in. If so they actually did have permission to be in that block, but only under the provisions of restricted speed, that being "must be able to stop within one-half the...

    I know he's tied off but still man, geez 😵‍💫 Is it just me or did anyone else think that was a real tree for the longest time (only ever saw it from a distance) 😅

    Nice update. This thread should be in the transportation and infustructure forums though.

    There was a collision between a CN train and an EXO train, Montreal's commuter service, a couple of weeks ago(Nov 21st) on the Mascouche line. I'm surprised this wasn't posted on here, or perhaps it was but elsewhere...

    That pic makes it look like they're turning it into two one-lane, one-way bridges. That would definitely solve the GTA's traffice problems 🥴

    They probably will more pics of the interior post-flames; While the interior will need to be gutted I'm sure the structural integrity of the car is just fine. I suppose it's simply a question of how much it will cost to replace everything, probably still cheaper than a new car.

    Yup not looking good, possibly a total loss depending on the extent of the fire and water damage to the electrical/pneumatics. In the very least the entire interior will have to be gutted.

    And finally jump back ahead of Philadelphia, Atlanta, San Francisco, Houston and LA in 'the Great North American race for the sky'. It's annoying how these smug little cities thought that they could stay ahead of us in that regard. 😒

    Could it be that they just haven't gotten around to cladding it yet?
