You can't change the design (nor should anyone want to), but if, as the ML apologists on here were trying to convince us a few years ago, they genuinely have learned their lessons, they can employ more competent project managers and contractors, now that Finch and Eglinton have been wrapped up...

Getting a cash injection of $70B (and the criminally high fares they charge) doesn't seem to be helping with their complete inability to deliver basic service. See also: https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/go-transit-fleet-equipment-and-other.25269/page-213#post-2352261...

"Metrolinx gets a lot of criticism (rightfully so), but the state of transit in Toronto and the Golden Horseshoe would be objectively worse without it." Is this satire? If you gave the running of the GO system to a bunch of bad tempered high school interns you'd get a more competently run...

Except that we already have the land on which loops sit, therefore the benefits of not having to purchase very expensive land do not exist here.

I assume most lines are going to be impacted. I got an email saying 4 Milton trips in each rush hour were going to be axed, predictably without any information as to when those trips are, because if you're looking for information Metrolinx is not the agency to get it from. I never want to hear...

There is an entire online industry dedicated to making current era media appear as though it's from the past. Vinyl records and analog cameras are all the rage at the moment. This is going a bit far for me, but it's not as though there weren't thousands of other people who got videos taken in...

It was mentioned on here that the TTC only okay'ed the higher operating speeds on the 5 because of the guideway intrusion detection system (of which the sensor triggered announcements are part). There is, as I understand, no such system in place on the 6 (nor is it necessary, since, again...

On opening day, the opposite was the case. Every 5 seconds or so at the termini you'd have a PSA about staying back from the yellow line, presumably because of the large amounts of people milling around. Sad to think this trash is all that is holding us back from the disastrous Finch West style...

It's bizarre that they haven't implemented that in the concourses yet. They have such boards over each gate at the bus terminal...

It's sounding a lot like stage era communism in Eastern Europe.

The 19:10 departure from Union is usually an L6.

Not to excuse this, which is indeed a problem, but I've found that using gotracker.ca helps a lot. I've caught a few trains by the skin of my teeth just because I was able to check the departure location ahead of time and didn't have to waste time stopping and looking for the departure signs...

There are always going to be exceptions to the rule, but the number of people that use the 6 that don't live along the corridor is going to be a hell of a lot less than those that use the lines that run downtown, and a fringe case is not a compelling reason to create policy, especially something...

Under what circumstances would a tourist who is not a railbuff need to use line 6? On opening day, I observed that vehicles on the eastern section were doing upwards of 40 km/h in some segments (presumably they'd be able to go even faster, if there was TSP) and upwards of 50 in between Sloane...

You people really need to travel more. This kind of rhetoric is getting incredibly tedious. In metro and tram cities in Europe like Prague or Vienna or Budapest, for short to mid distance journeys, even in the city centre, it's usually more efficient to take the surface tram rather than to take...
