Not bad for a facelift after 40 years.
Also @RS3488, you should be a CPTDB wiki editor for how much you track this stuff.

I just wonder when we will finally see one in active service again.
Minus the two seemingly midset test runs 206 had on February 16th and May 1st of 2023, none have run on any sort of train. And 201 now makes 11 that have been delivered back to GO.

Right now, barely any info.
Only thing I really know is that the 9 Series 7 cab cars (242 - 250) have been sent plus like 10 or more coaches, nothing has been delivered back to GO.
Seems MX is more interested now in just just repainting the Series 7 cars in house (several of the 25xx and 26xx cars have been repainted).

Also I'm guessing since the initial order of locos has been expanded from 13 to 27, and the tender still hasn't been decided, we probably won't be seeing any locos delivered to GO in September of this year as was initially reported.

204 has been placed mid-train and moved to beside the main at Willowbrook.

Is that an active consist or a storage line?

Are you talking about the previous 13 unit RFP?
Acquisition of locomotives is still on the Metrolinx acquisition plan posted a couple of pages ago.

13 locomotive tender was cancelled. The procurement plan outlines a new order/tendering process with a larger number of locomotives.

Saw an opportunity to make this edit, wouldn’t it be interesting if GO’s livery was like this on every coach lol

Nah, personally I like the stripe just going straight throughout the coach.
Also you turned the cab cars double ended lol, with cabs on both sides

Now picture them developing a power car that they can slot right in between the cab cars and trailer cars just like njt. DMUs/emus on the cheap!!

Oh I agree, I just thought it would be interesting
