The last of the operators should be trained by next week. Will the destination signs allow red-blue color coding for the lines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not when they first came in they actually had a green Block designated for some reason.. 34 minutes ago, CTrainDude said: Guessing this was a well-positioned training train helping out. Your are absolutely correct! And this is a pic (see below) of that consist put out of service at Saddeltown. And I can absolutely confirm that car 2411 is in service it was actually coupled to car 2415 in a 4 car consist. Major breakdown of a series 9 consist last night caused massive delays on both red and blue lines. It seems we can't go a few days without a breakdown with these things 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRT Posted February 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 Thanks for the update! You know I'm almost positive I've seen 2414 in service as well....but my mind once again fails me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmyC62 Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 I'm pretty sure I rode 2411 Feb 1 past midnight - there were two four-car S200 sets back-to-back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianTransitTycoon Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 On board 2407 this morning. Also I caught one as well Wednesday evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick B Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Was digging through some old messages and found this photo of an unidentified S200 car sent to me by a non-transit enthusiast friend last spring. This photo shows the route identifier illuminated in green which I figured makes it worth sharing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1604 Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Nice! At least two S200 consists on the Red Line today: 2415-2406-2403 and 2402-2413-2408. I noticed the doors have been changed to no longer close if something is in the doorway (or presumably only until the door timer is up). Glad to see this change as the doors always seemed a tad too aggressive when trying to close before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRT Posted February 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Good to hear. I spoke to a Siemens tech and there was supposed to me a hardware / software update to correct some issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Recently I have seen 2412, 2413 and 2415 running together. Today, I saw two 3 car S9 consists back to back in service today. Also, I JUST got word from a friend that an S200 delivery was spotted arriving from the south by Anderson on an inbound freight headed for Alyth. Apparently this was just 5 minutes ago when he saw the freight train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick B Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 The wrapped car at Haysboro delivery track as of 14:20 this afternoon is indeed #2417. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRT Posted March 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 Yes indeed it is 2417. It looked very cold.. I don't think I've ever seen these cars numbered from the factory until now. Did we already get 2416? Or did the the 9s stop at 2415 back in late 2016? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
