    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    If the upgrades to the Stouffville Line indeed allow 30 min service, it would be great to launch that alongside the rumoured 30 min Bramalea service on the Kitchener Line.

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    Hopefully these cancellations will deal with the "dragging on" aspects of the project. Short term pain, long term gain.

    Toronto | Rail Deck District | 227.23m | 70s | Craft Dev Corp | Sweeny &Co

    If I was the developer, I’d offer to build the entire park with the condition that Toronto requests an MZO. Time is money, and this really looks like an OLT project otherwise.

    Just a thought - construction for this project would be way easier and cheaper if work started before the GO electrification works did.

    I’m glad to hear from other posters we might get good Kitchener news. Don’t forget though, the Barrie and Stouffville weekend temporary cuts are also real.

    Toronto | Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s

    In the picture above, there seems to be electrical wiring in the gaps, presumably for ads (either backlighting or digital screens).

    The public art is GREAT! Source. Background from the Crosstown website: Eglinton Station: Rodney LaTourelle with Louise Witthöft Born in 1965, Canadian artist Rodney LaTourelle is known for large-scale colour installations, public artworks and architectural interventions explore the...

    GO Transit Fleet Equipment and other

    Well that’s quite the news, and yes I assume that rules out the F125. To throw a curveball into the guessing game for GO’s new diesel locomotives, I wonder if any European companies bid? With CETA they’d be able to sell in the Canadian market, and could likely respond pretty fast with an...

    Metrolinx: Finch West LRT

    Technically I think it’s “Jane and Finch” stop. I believe Metrolinx is calling surface boarding and alighting areas stops, with stations reserved for underground. This could be outdated though.

    The service reductions are for sure not “we don't want to run trains just because”. My guess is that it is absolutely construction related, potentially driven by costs. Yes you can get work done faster with fewer trains, but more importantly the loss of productivity of stopping work for trains...

    Toronto | GO Transit: Davenport Diamond Grade Separation | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I’ve seen it in Oakville a few times over the years. Usually happened late at night, and I wish I got pictures. Haven’t seen this movement in years however.

    Toronto | GO Transit: Davenport Diamond Grade Separation | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    The odd time not that long ago, VIA used to wye the Canadian at Bayview Junction in Hamilton. I suspect that VIA might do this for next weekend, and depart Toronto along the Richmond Hill Line, the same way it enters the city.

    Toronto | Hurontario-Main LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Some shots of the push box at Port Credit. You can see it has shifted slightly under the tracks (support structure) and some additional digging has occurred.
