I guess these are being sent by truck to/from the plant in Kingston? I wonder if they are going all the way up to Thunder Bay since I don't see the wheels on them? Photo credit to the person noted on the FB post.

It might be the mock-up

I guess this means the Alstom LRVs will be shipped by rail?

^Judging by the differences in the panels along the roofline (scroll back a few pages in this thread for examples), I'd be pretty confident that this is the mockup and not a production vehicle.

Since this thread is for Metlinx vehicles for the Crosstown, Finch LRT and other projects in the works I question the relevance of pictures of LRt's for Kitchener and Ottawa which both have their own threads.

Good point. Will remember for next time.

No problem it can get confusing sometimes especially when some threads don't get posted on for awhile.

Great news for Finch!
How many of these have been delivered so far? Any to Metrolinx?

The alstrom ones are going to be used on the Finch lrt as far as I know none have been delivered yet. As far as the Bombardier ones for the Eglinton crosstown line I think they have all been delivered but I can't really say as they weren't tracked like the TTC streetcars were as they came in.
