Is it that or just the drivers/ guards not bothering to use them when it's just as easy to go through an open door on the subway and go in through the door there to the cab.

Considering how many memos have been sent out telling operators alternately that they can use the side cab doors, followed by other memos telling them not to - yeah, it's the side cab doors.

I still see a few operators using the cab doors at Eglinton Station. I guess the second generation of TRs won't have any cab doors. I thought that the same company that went bankrupt made both the cab doors and the main doors? Are these trains coming off warranty without this issue being corrected?

The electronic map looks really bad with only Line 4 lit up. Just another reason this style was a terrible choice.

And Line 2 has to wait at least 5 years until the signalling thing is complete. Then we'll see the TR2's on Line 2.

There were two in-service TR's on Line 2 yesterday.

So the RT's LED lights finally got to flash.

Why is it that Line 2 can't handle the TR's? There are so many spares right now, I was wondering if they might start using a few of them on Line 2.

There are also so many T1 spares. Line 4 just freed up more T1 cars. There's no reason have a need to permanently use the TRs on line 2.

Apparently they were running some TRs on the Bloor Line today. I saw one at Kipling.

I'm guessing that until the Line 1 extension to Vaughan actually opens, they can use any of the TRs available on Line 2.
