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

TTC should re-gauge a pair of T1 cars, and stick a pantograph on top just to confuse the hell out of everyone.

And then have a PCC running behind it!

PCC streetcar spotted on Eglinton Avenue West near Caledonia.

One thing to bear in mind when comparing Ottawa LRV lengths with Toronto ones - Ottawa is using 1500V DC, not 750 or 600V, so more* power can be delivered at the same amperage through the wire.

* in theory twice as much using basic voltage/current/resistance equations but in practice presumably somewhat less - my last electrical lectures were 15+ years ago.
 
What kind of bike lanes does the Eglinton Connects plan presume? The same flexipost/painted line atrocity?
