Well, I vote for useful information & images as opposed to endless fact less rumours.

Theres a reason theres 1700 pages on the crosstown
1500 of them are debating the value of at-grade transit. and whether this transit will be sucessful or not a debate that was settled over 13 years ago
If youre only here for the news you would have a better time of it just reading the MX newsletter.

There was a dog and pony show at science centre today. You can tell by the fancy brand new jackets that they were armchair engineers or consultants.

When Metrolinx offers a vacuum of information, what else is there to fill it?

Inactivity on the thread would be superior to spreading unsubstantiated rumours, or rehashing the same debates about the chosen form of the project, as though there is anyone left on the forum open to having their opinion swayed.

You need to add threads that get derail by off topic's that should be in other threads, I am guilty at times doing that when replying to a posting since there is no thread for it. I have moved some of my replies to the correct thread.
On my last 2 trips along the east end this year, I haven't seen no one at any stations or on the line as well no LRV's running.
At this time, this thread should be quite unless someone is seeing work being done or real up to date info as to the line. It got to the point I stop clicking threads as its a waste of time.
As for fancy brand new jackets, they need to be replaced from time to time due to age and not standing out.

In construction, shiny, unused jackets and sparkling white hard hats usually mean it's management/office employees on a rare site visit.

A slight sign of progress, one of the new escalators at Eglinton Station that go down from the subway platform was running yesterday.

I follow this thread and the Ontario line thread for any pictures that people post of updates, as i am not traveling to all the station sites frequently

I saw some train testing in the east going west bound for the first time in a while today

Since I live far away, how often do trains get tested these days? At least in other cities like Ottawa and Montreal, a sign that things were approaching the final phase is seeing test trains all the time, at near real frequencies.

Is the provincial election being called for Feb 27th a harbinger of anything to come on the Crosstown?
I guess he's not waiting for it to open before calling folks to the polls.
I'll definitely be voting Doug out, but suspect he'll still win again.

Not a thing. TTC has already said the earliest that Eglinton will open is is June (and that's the earliest - not a target).
