There are rumours about massive cuts by Trump to federal support for local transit. Hopefully at least some already committed funding will be honoured but...
As for 4431, it seems to me like Bombardier took everyone off the "stage 1" part of the LRV line and moved them along to the finishing stages as 4430 passed by so that the end of 2016 deadlines could be met, and now they are starting up an empty line again. Maybe that's not what happened but it sure looks like it and is similar to the start of 2016 when there was a long pause in January.
