    Hahaha probably just assumed that Montreal is an extension of Ontario. I bet the MTQ is watching the 401/A20 border frequently. That is too bad. I still think the service should terminate at Oshawa Station. There’s no need to go to downtown Toronto. Where is this new operator going to?

    Same here. I understand the noise issue but it's so cool to feel like you're stepping back in time to see all these backyards as you're rolling through.

    It's really disappointing that the 2nd track through Guelph is nowhere close to being done. The platform as you said is up and ready to go with no track tie in. I was hoping for a weekend service to Kitchener to start by September. But I feel that goal slipping away.

    Speaking of Guelph Sub. I walked along the subdivision west of Guelph Central Station today. The 2nd track is in only over the bridges spanning Wilson & Norfolk. Would be nice to see the 2nd track go in soon. You can also see the end of the new south platform. Moving from East to West ending at...

    They’re going to shift the platform westward as other posters have mentioned. Which is great news as platforms will go past Wyndham Street. Enabling the underpass and staircases to actually be used. Since completion 10 years ago those stairs have remained closed. You can see the stairs on the...

    Guelph Central Station Looks like the platform is all but complete. In the first photo the track for the 2nd platform is tied into the mainline

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    As a sometimes user of the Kitchener Line during peak bike commuter time his expression doesn't surprise me at all lol He's like "I can add more bikes at Bloor" I bet Metrolinx was completely caught off guard after the introduction of weekend service back in April 2023. One thing I'm glad about...

    Thanks to all those taking pictures! It's been a while since I've visited Yonge & Bloor so your contributions are a bit of a shock seeing the progress.

    Fiber optics cables. railways make lots of extra money running telecommunication cables through those pipes.

    Ottawa Transit Developments

    Agreed. Although I'm still salty that uOttawa station was never built underground and in -turn creating a linear park between Nicholas and the university campus. It was in the initially concept but was scrapped early on as a cost saving measure.

    Funny how the LPC caucus is very quiet about this. You would think that the Environmental Ministry Steven Guilbeault and Transportation Minister Pablo Rodriguez would champion passenger railway priority.

    That's the plan - get a station close to downtown Oshawa. And we keep Metrolinx loves parking so the Knob Hills site is a great location with plenty of space that will hopefully be built up in the coming years.

    General railway discussions

    Really trying to figure out the reasoning behind this - it's a tourist railway that wasn't in the way of anything. Sure I'd love to see regular GO service and hopefully up to Lindsay in the near future. But just leave things how they are. Hopefully the York-Durham Heritage Railway can find a...
