    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    makes sense... then again that lady was talking to an individual worker on the line who probably doesnt know the full picture and was making assumptions...

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    well.. if a full replacement has to occur that would mean more tearing up brand new concrete once more... still waiting for that 3 month notice...

    yea i dont think she even knows about this issue. she only came in last year and all these operation speeds were determined long before tory stepped down. what we need to do is raise awareness to her office so that her staff can bring it up to her.

    can they not have a slow order to broadview or are the trains sliding at 10km/h?

    Maybe a mistake and they're lining it up for a repaint of the lower panels? Or it could be a special one off?

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    with the resumption of LRT testing along the line does anyone know if thats because the latest software patch has been applied and/or the track has been fully repaired?

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    apparently its because freight train double stackers and autocars may be wider than the platform. hence why even the wheelchair ramp platform is set so far back as well. honestly though i call BS on this for the lakeshore lines and any platforms on GO operated lines. theyre just being lazy on...

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    yup... its a cop out for bad design or too lazy to address the problem. add heating cables, get a salter or enclose it... but no theyll just lock it up because its the cheapest solution.

    so when will they double track Kennedy to the SJ? thats the real missing link for the stoufville line.

    second render with pods for sure will be much different. no leg room and they need to have full height dividers or else that poor carryon bag will end up under the front row.

    GO Transit Electrification | Metrolinx

    if they are building for a future with more frequent shorter trains than yes. its a tremendous waste of taxpayers dollars to build something for only 10% usage over accommodating a situation that comes only 10% of the time.

    because ML doesnt have the brainpower to think ahead of what they WILL need vs what the current needs are. same with TTC and their new order of trams that still have trolley poles in an all panto line... its all a copy/paste exercise for their spec, yet they still manage to take 4x as longer...

    The slimy ATU 113 president was on newstalk 1010 this morning... when asked about what they want he just said job security pay and benefits... when asked to elaborate just complained that ttc was outsourcing their jobs and that 12000 members were in danger... what a crock of shit. if hes going...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    so it looks like the entire line for the most part is complete and ready to go pending final testing and training of operators.... far cry from the debacle that is line 5.
