Yeah, based on the pale white lines (wonder if this was cropped from another internal document) this seems to be the rough schedule:
  • Trial running: Wednesday to mid-July
    • Close out non-minor deficiencies by mid-July
  • Revenue Service Demonstration: mid-July to mid-August
  • Substantial Completion milestone: mid-August
  • Bedding In Period: mid-August to early November
  • Revenue Service: Late October (note the overlap)
  • Close out minor deficiencies: 🤷🏾‍♀️

People on that betting site should give you a cut.
 
Sports betting is getting out of control….

Can we please get a break from folks posting screenshots of the betting pages for the Eglinton Crosstown? We get it, it's an actual thing. But we've had like 3 posts in the last 5 pages with the same information.

Apologies, not trying to single out the poster of the most recent one, just want to put a request out there going forward.

Would you like to parlay that with a 5:1 on the ALTO HSR being on time?

(not intentionally being an ass here; making a facetious comment on how f'd and predatory the entire gaming industry has become.)

Yay Its Wednesday!!!!! But No trains!!! 😒 taking bets for October onwards now!
 
Apparantly there has been some train testing on the tracks today, but not resembling revenue service.
Smallspy simply said that they intended to resume train testing today, but not specifically the trial period.
Thus we are probably at least a few days away from the 14 day trial period 😢
 
Maybe?

The parliamentary assistant to Kinga Surma does mention in his opening remarks that the next step will be to extend the Finch West LRT to the new Woodbine Station (which has been discussed on this forum) which would make sense. Let's hope it gets funding.

That was Toronto Councillor Vincent Crisanti who said that
