  1. Or placed inside Kennedy station before the ramp is taken down. Turn key enclosed exhibit space with easy access.
  2. Other divisions can decommission just as efficiently.
  3. Start a pool to see how long until someone in the shop catches on.
  4. The Wilson techs have been doing MTO related repairs for other divisions as their workload has nosedived with all the new equipment/warranty coverage. Gotta give them something to chew on to justify their paycheque.
  5. An Instagram post a half hour ago has it photographed in Abbottsford.
  6. Powertrain component overhaul. Air compressor, alternator, starter, water pump etc get replaced. Ancillaries that can lead to a road call.
  7. The 84s are about due for their SMP powertrain refresh. Expect them to pop up a various divisions one or two at a time soon.
  8. Somewhat surprising they would intentionally pick highway 17 as their route over the top of Lake Superior. 11 is much flatter and safer for oversize loads, with only about a 2.5 hour travel time penalty. That stretch of 17 is Ontario’s version of the Coquihalla.
  9. I’m through repeating myself. The clearance restrictions only apply to the older hybrids, and this is why. The 83s would be fine.
  10. The orions were delivered unplugged too, but for NYDOT reasons.
  11. Everyone always puts the GMs on a pedestal, thinking they lasted over 20 years naturally. It was a shit ton of expensive labour, performed several times over. Bulkheads were still replaced piecemeal long before Gunn showed up. If the people controlling the money were to invoke austerity measures again, the current fleet would last as long as well.
  12. Which also have roof hvac. It’s the hybrids that present the clearance issue.
  13. The facility is called a machine shop. The people that work there are called machinists.
  14. I predict the city’s and provinces’s finances are going to flip the chessboard on the electrification timeline very soon. We’re heading for a recession, and it will trickle down to public services. To add, if the CPC forms the next federal government….. Certainly I’m not excited about it, but I can read the room.
  15. All the infrastructure of a subway, but SMALLER! TINY EVERYTHING!
  16. Please point out where it was stated that they’re ALL going to the east end.
  17. The intention seems to be to focus on sending some of the 9400s to mcnicoll as they come online for RT replacement specifically.
  18. Operators might have called in sick en masse for their own safety when they found out what the assignment was. Definitely a not zero chance of that event turning violent. Wouldn’t blame them. I would have too.
  19. My post made more sense last night before the moderator deleted the nonsense from the Lolipop guild. For the precocious Gen alphas, so you know what I’m comparing you guys to:
