Saw this one on the Guelph Sub at Mount Pleasant GO headed to Mac Yard around noon

The existing bridge structure over Gerrard and Carlaw is wide enough to fit 4 tracks as were the structures over Dundas and Logan, but the corridor needed to be moved southeast before the Gerrard/Carlaw bridge structure to fit the Ontario Line in the same corridor.

Summer gives the TTC the time to measure the service impacts of the massive number of service changes that will be made once it launches with a bit of a lower demand for service. Doing so would allow them to make adjustments to the schedules that would go into effect for the September board...

They are mining deeper into what will be the station block of the new King-Bathurst Station. This is an access shaft which will be used to transport materials into and out of the excavation. The cylindrical shape helps to maintain the structural integrity of the shaft.

The signalling system was designed for the eventuality of 5 minute frequency intervals with doubled trains. While is not needed in the on-street portion between south of Waterloo Public Square/Willis Way and north of Mill Stations because of the speeds of 50 km/h or lower and transit signals at...

And the biggest issue in KW was crosstalk between vehicles entering and exiting ATP sections at the same time which would cause vehicles to emergency brake with the ATP display showing “HH” as if either vehicle had infringed on the others protected moving block.

I find that not every operator will announce their crew changes at Coxwell

The ceilings are already part of an ongoing project to replace and modernize aging infrastructure in the subway stations which has been ongoing for a while. They’ll be replaced when that work is complete. It takes an exceptionally long time for them to complete this work due to the fact that...

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they did get the order. The plant has been one missed procurement contract away from closing for at least 2 decades. The only thing that has been keeping that plant running has been GTHA transit projects from GO coach refurbishments to TTC streetcars and the...

It didn't get lost so much as stuck on a stray piling of a building that probably didn't show up in any planning documents

Thorncliffe Park area around here or so https://maps.app.goo.gl/CXqxdRMaojXegQzX8

Not even connected to the line 5 project. There's water main work going on until at least November on Duplex between Berwick and Eglinton. What you are seeing is just a stub up installed in the road for flushing the new mains out.

to note the MP54AC is limited to 110mph so we won't be seeing 125mph under diesel power anytime soon

Probably not a sinkhole yet. If it was there would be more heaving and cracking in the asphalt in a more semicircular pattern around it. Asphalt, despite its hard feel and appearance is not really a solid. It's a viscoelastic material, which is part of the reason why they use it to make roads...

While you've all been debating the meaning of the word receipts (Miriam-Webster vs Urban dictionary definitions) bridge beams are being installed at the bridge expansion on Queen St East by Jimmy Simpson along with TTC streetcar track repairs nearby.

That could be fairly soon to be quite honest. Especially given the number of vehicles that are out on the line now

They've been clearing out most of the equipment in a lot of places along the line since mid summer. They just started training on the second class of operators for Line 5 on Monday, @smallspy posted about it in the Finch West thread. The two lines will share an operator pool so I'm not going to...

Is the first class finished already?

Well they do need to test every scenario lol

Black Creek Division is real though whether it is for both Line 5 and 6 I don't quite know.
