The curves within Hillcrest cause this thing to squeal higher than the current fleet as well a grinning noise. I was not prepare for the looping of the car while getting ready to depart, otherwise I would caught it and the sound on the video.
The car goes past you real quite and it will show up the the various videos I shot today of it. The other 5 are up on site now. You can hear the new horn and bell during the break testing at the CNE loop.
Real great speed going forward or backward as well stopping on a dime.
Andy and the PR team were on the car.
There was real lack of communication between 4400 and the convoy as part of the convoy departed the yard 15 minutes ahead of schedule forcing 4400 to start sooner.
By leaving 15 minutes ahead of schedule, it put 3 512 drivers on overtime as they were at the end of the convoy. Got on one of the cars that were force to use Queen in place of King. After getting off at Queen, all 3 car depole on the new overhead. I noticed last night on Bathurst as well a few other lines, car poles were sparking a lot more than the old overhead.
