Not sure if you folks can see this video, but it’s a training run at Ionview from today:

I don't really want to talk about Russia or China here. Can we shut it and focus on the LRT?

I don’t think that’s possible. CEM is built into the car structure, don’t think you can retrofit it.

Agree re Aldershot connection. In terms of flight frequency, I expect Porter to add many new flights from Hamilton over 2025 and 2026. They still have about 40 additional jets on order, and need routes for them to fly. I’d hope to see a few flights - at least during the winter months down to...

Ontario PCs promise to upload the Ottawa LRT to Metrolinx. Release here.

Looks like the Province has re-designated a chunk of this site as "mixed use" from "employment". Posting on the ERO here, and the decision here.

I think whoever posted the tender made a mistake - in the description it says: Metrolinx is accepting Submissions forThe Setup and Management of Metrolinx E- Store and for the Supply and Delivery of Promotional Products on an Emergent Basis

I’ve been pretty empathetic so far about needing time to sort out issues, but that patience has run out. It genuinely seems like Metrolinx and/or Crosslinx are not putting their best foot forward to solve these issues. What is wrong with these two organizations??

Many UT threads dedicated to potential GO 2.0 ideas!

One of the main reasons a GO Train will never have a route crossing a national (or even provincial border) is that it would then become a federally regulated railway. That opens up a litany of bureaucratic issues. If Ontario ever wanted to run a service to Buffalo, it would be easier to...

Another shot of it from Union. I believe this batch of cabs was refurbished by Alstom in Thunder Bay. Note the upgraded snow plow, the Ontario Northland refurbished cabs didn’t get that.

The line name will not change.

Honestly congrats to Brampton. As Ontario’s 3rd largest city, it’s hightime their downtown was linked to the LRT. I know it’s been a rocky road to get here, but a solution is finally moving forward which is cause to celebrate.

These are good looking busses. Can’t wait to see them in GO livery.
