So that raises the question, is it possible the solo 10 car F59 consist could go on non London bound trains? There was a solo F59 consist that was on the Kitchener line this weekend, not on a London train but rather the Mt Pleasant - Union and back off peak trains.

Is there also a tentative date to which they will wye an F59? Because I know GO is not eager to have F59s operate by themselves on a 10 car train.

You know, I am just realizing there still hasn’t been an explanation as to why MX seemingly barred doubleheaders on their tracks.

The bike cars have been reinstalled on the Niagara trains.

I’m guessing they will wye one of the F59s by next week to have it face west for the London train.

Passed by Willowbrook and noted the following 557, 558, and 559 resting by themselves 206 still facing the incorrect way

207 has been delivered to Mac yard

I doubt it. Seems as though multiple locomotives are still allowed on one train, but they are just not allowed to be situated right next to each other on the consist.

I’m still left wondering why there was a sudden ban on doubleheader passenger trains, and who orchestrated this edict?

so does this mean the London Train will run under an L10L consist formation?

The London train only has 10 cars so that would not be an issue.

They had 3 F59s (562, 563, 564) on solo 6 car consists before this. As well as 557-561 and 558-560 doubleheader consists for the London. 559 was acting as a switcher at Willowbrook.

From what I see it seems to have run this way for atleast a few days now.

So the London Train only had 1 F59 today but still had 10 cars This marks the first time since 2011 or so that an F59 pulled or pushed a 10 car train by itself

In other news 207 currently holding at North Bay, likely to be delivered back to Toronto soon.

Speaking of the buses Is it true that all of the current active GO buses are in the two tone MX scheme now?

I question though why for so long Metrolinx has been stating that the Series VII cab cars would be deactivated, when the evidence points towards the opposite (the conductor and engineer slide window frames being intact along with the actual cab).

What's odd is that it seems now the Barrie Weekend Train trips are alternating between 10 and 12 cars respectively. But I agree hopefully we see extensions of train lengths.

Just found this image on Alstom’s twitter account, showcasing Series VII Cab Cars 247 and likely 248
