Could be anything really. Could have shifted resources to underground work until the Spring, shifted resources to Yonge/Eglinton, etc

Saying Cedarvale is clear is a bit of a stretch

On downhill sections of track there were timed blocks which are designed to prevent humans from going over the speed limit. The signal would show red with a flashing white light. If the train approached at the correct speed, the signal would turn green or yellow before the train actually reached...

I'm pretty sure the trip arms were tied down as ATC was activated along the line. I'd imagine the failsafe is if ATC loses contact with the train or the train isn't obeying ATC commands, it'll estop.

Wasn't the train in question the train that hit the person?

Well during the weekends there are 3x as many trains as a single weekday and those are 100% tourist trains.

DC actually has a subway station so deep that the only way to access it is via a high speed elevator. There are no escalators/stairs other than an emergency stair well. But to your point, that'd never happen here.

Ran along the railpath yesterday and the "tree protecting fencing" is being put up along large sections of the trail.

I don't think it's funded (only the extension of the current Railpath is) so if it will happen some day...it's a long time away.

If you look at historical street view images, you'll see why there is a gap in the fence. Around 2014 they were replacing the poles. Looks like just as they build the fence, this pole replacing projected may have started which would explain why there was still a gap in 2014 with both poles...

The weekend trains skip West Harbor

The app shows only regular bikes available at that station. Hmmm. Is the app misreporting e-bikes as regular bikes??

I think the biggest problem in T1 is US-bound flights. With Air Canada metering the security line, it doesn't help when US customs is already a bottle neck in itself. I flew to the US Friday morning. Wasn't allowed to get into the security line until my flight got called. When I was allowed to...

Midtown always has a shortage of bikes. They only seem to refill the stations once a week in this area.

Agreed. I wasn't blaming the airlines. I was just saying if no one did anything, delays would have gotten to a point causing a full gridlock.

Something had to give. The entire system would have collapsed within a matter of weeks with peak summer travel if the airlines did nothing.

I'm not 100% sure why the bridge is needed but for the section that is waiting for a tunnel, I think it has to do with the track not being at grade with the trail to start with. Because there are max grade % requirements on trails, it might have been decided that it was cheaper/easier to dig a...

They are the holdup. Can't finish the trail without getting the tunnel and bridge built over the tracks...both which are being designed and built by Metrolinx

From what I read, it sounds like the majority of the problems are happening in T1.

I've been on Line 1 a few times over the past week and every time I was on a train the sticky stuff on the seats were gone.
