I wonder how Bombardier would react to Ford asking to replace the Eglinton LRVs with the equivalent in Toronto Rockets? You know, assuming either A) there was the money to switch over the whole Eglinton Crosstown LRT to subway or B) Ford would only take the parts of Eglinton that are underground and in the Richview ROW and build that as subway.
I think it would be quite simple to switch the order to Toronto Rockets at this point since the order for TCLRVs is not very far along and very little (if any) work has been done so far. However, Bombardier is in a situation where they can charge a very large fee for doing so. As a profitable business, I don't think it's very likely that they would dismiss an option where they get millions of dollars for absolutely nothing. From what I understand, it's all up to Bombardier.
