Do you know something that no one else does? Are they behind on completion of so many cars that there won't be any other shipments leaving Thunder Bay until the New Year?

Wondering the same thing... is there some holiday restriction on shipments that isn't allowing them to ship anything after 4517? Just looking at calendar days there is still a couple weeks worth of ship dates that allow delivery by 31st of Jan. Looking forward to see what the final numbers are, hopefully its beyond 4517.

Or Kingston ... Bombardier said they'd ship 2 cars from Kingston in December, and we've only seen one.
We've certainly even seen after Christmas deliveries to Hillcrest before.
If the WIki is right:
- December 29 and 31 in 2015.
- December 27 in 2017 (and January 2 2018).

Will CP Ship Cars on Dec 27, 28 or 31?????????????.......................I already have stated in other posting, TTC will see other cars "IF" CP ships cars to Hillcrest on those days, otherwise, Dec 21 or 24th are the last day. Either way, another miss schedule year.

What has changed at CP that they won't deliver cars after December 24th any more. They've delivered on December 27, 29, and 31 in the past 3 years.

It was stated by a Board Member that CP doesn't do local service over the holiday and why I used IF.

I hacked together a quick page today to make it super easy to quickly check which of the 4500 series cars are tracking. Maybe someone other than myself will get some use out of it. https://www.jameskoole.com/flexity/
I'm showing the car number, time since the last update, and also the route the vehicle is on which reveals testing vs. in service. There's also map links for OpenStreetMaps and Apple Maps. Google Maps coming soon...

4572 was delivered overnight. Don't know if TTC unloads on weekends, if not it will sit until Monday.
4517 is en route up north, likely to arrive Toronto on Sunday or maybe Monday.

Nice app and it might be useful or interesting if it actually tracked all the Flexities, newly received or not? (You KNOW you need another Christmas project!)

Adding more cars to the array would be simple, but there are better sites for that (transsee.ca, for example). It’s a lot of API calls to get all ~115 as well. You’re right though, I should probably use the time I have this week to make some improvements. Better mobile support first!
