Are the tracks for Lakeshore East and West on the south side of the train shed? (outside the train shed) - Would it not be possible to electrify these newer tracks without worrying about the constraints of the shed? - I also think it might be time to talk about removing the train shed! I had...

Here is a bike map I made a few years back trying improve natvigation of the network... making "Subway" lines out of each corridor. Equating line thickness to level of protection. I will update it soon.... Enjoy! www.andrewmaps.com

I've posted this in the other thread also... This map I made awhile back, just ensuring that EXO is involved (for the their benefit and to help pay for it) (please excuse the LRT de l'Est concept still in there)

I've posted this before... But any tunnel idea would benefit in buy-in from EXO commuter trains (to help pay for it) - I wonder if they are thinking of that? - excuse this map has the old LRT de L'est concept. With only one underground station, it perhaps wouldn't cost toooo much?

Sorry to keep harping on this... It struck me how diligently the new yet-unopened section is being plowed, compared to the well-used section! There is no obvious reason why this is enduring (to me anyway) - looking south / looking north from Wallace bridge

I find it unbelievable how long this 200m(?) section has taken to open... Its been complete for at least 4 months now and still requires an on-street detour. (detour sign said till september 2024) They also plow it!! Even though its still closed off - They actually move barriers and fences to...

What is the cost for a shunt enhancer for one locomotive? Would buying 32(?) of these be a more simple solution? How long would it take to install? I hate the idea of giving in to the CN bullies, but the speed restriction should be lifted asap. Maybe the court could decide that CN pays for...

Oh, ok, I get it... the DMU stops at the existing platform, then accesses the trail track before coming back? yes, that seems much easier! Thanks for the clarification

Wouldn't a station east of the bridge be a lot further? I would think my option at least you could connect from the same station - I would imagine a seperate station being a much worse passenger experience? Also, seasoned regular users would position themselves closer to the transfer point...

3 seat ride from the airport. seems like a hassle. Would be nice if they could find some way to interline into the downtown tunnel - costly/perhaps impossible connection at Bayview? I imagine this will become a pinchpoint with people transfering at Bayview. Though glad all this investment is...

Would it not be possible to have a small siding, capable of holding one 2 or 3 car DMU? A retaining wall would be needed and a connection to the new (currently unused) southside platform. The Wynham bridge (nor any other bridge) would not need to be widened. Also a storage siding could be...

Does anyone know if the ATC work on Line 1 (that took so many years to complete) has had any positive effect on service reliability? It seems there are signal issues quite frequently... Is this project complete? I was under the impression that "everything would get better" after ATC - I dare...

Right, was just showing the route - 1929 it stopped?

I did this illustration for the museum in Guelph last year - maybe ION/GO street running along Waterloo into downtown Guelph can be reinstated? Exiting the Fergus sub at Silvercreek - site of the old silvercreek brewery - Who ever wudda thought?! Sorry this verging on fantasy territory!

I think the Guelph to Cambridge (DMU?) should go right into Cambridge on alignment built for the ION... Is there a way to intergrate those together? Assuming Guelph service arrives every 30 minutes (at best!), this could be slotted in - maybe a third platform at the terminal? Would be annoying...

Just a nice pic of ION...

Hey, do you when this construction will take place? I live right next to the Norfolk bridge and can't seem to get info on anything! - since it seems no visible work is happening west of Dublin, I assumed they would reinstate the switch (and existing signal) to be the western end of the double...

Breaking the North track bridge (Wilson st) apart - 20mph restriction on the new track After speaking with the workers, it sounds like the this is only a temporary track flip to replace the bridges - sadly the 2nd track from Guelph Central to the Hanlan will not be constructed for at least...

2nd track flopped down over Wilson/Gordon bridges in downtown Guelph...

Wilson Street Bridge being installed.... As part of double tracking In Downtown Guelph
