LRT Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 I noticed today at Anderson garage that the main train paint booth is gone! And in its place there's a massive pit being dug up! Does anybody know what the heck is going on over there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadianTransitTycoon Posted October 16, 2017 Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 So real-time signs are back to the old format at fish creek. Is it temporary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing system wide. I hope it's permanent cause frankly I dislike the new layout, especially when it says a train is 2 mins away after it's alright left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1604 Posted October 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 Seemed like it was 100% displaying the old format too, not flipping back and forth between old and new layouts like in July. Some shots of the new crossing gates at Chinook: It's nicer having a fully open pedestrian crossing without the 'corrals' to walk through. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRT Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 Nice to see they're finally installed. I hate coming through there there's always someone that runs in front of the train at the last second. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadianTransitTycoon Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 I heard it down in Heritage. Not when trains arrive but I think when they were doing annoucements for delays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
