Ed T. Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Yesterday afternoon was the first time I've actually seen trains sitting in Vincent Yard. I saw two trains, on the two most northerly tracks. Could have been more in the tunnels I suppose. This was around 3 PM. I've been past there at about that time before, and never saw anything there before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D40-90 Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 They been storing them at night for a while now. looks like they just store four trains sets a night. two trains per track, on the first two sets of track, closets to the actual line. I guess they are storing them mid day too. How many during the mid day is stored there, I assume 4 sets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a temporary arrangement to reduce the number of daytime movements to and from Greenwood yard during construction (actually, with the summer service cuts now in place, no trains pull out at all from Greenwood for the PM peak). And yes, four trains are being stored at Vincent every night. This has been in place since the June 2017 board period. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6254 Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 Did anyone notice some middle SRT cars (3019, 3021 etc) don't have the AC turned on this year? All the lead cars are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leylandvictory2 Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 i notice the SRT is running manual mode lately. Why is that? I wonder if it has something to do with the hot weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the recent consultation for the Lawrence East Smartrack, they noted they'd altered their plans, as they didn't expect the SRT station to close until sometime after the SmartTrack opened. I can't find the SmartTrack date in the presentation, but I think it was 2024. Though they do explicitly say 2026 to close the RT. Presumably this only gets later than 2026 as time progresses.

Orion V Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 I was on 5361 today and saw the cameras. I thought it was the norm for T1s (I don't ride them often) until I read this now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyA Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 Question: Is the Bombardier TR rolling stock ever used on line 2? On any regular basis or occasionally? I ask because I noticed the LED route map looks like it is set up to accommodate line 2 operation, but I've never seen a TR on line 2. I am fairly new to Toronto. Thanks.

There are no LEDs for Eglinton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyA Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 OK, thanks for the answers. I just find that kind of fascinating, that those LEDs are there yet almost never get illuminated except for this extremely rare occasion of TRs being used on line 2.

Well the Line 2 LEDs flash every time the train passes through Saint George, Spadina, or Bloor-Yonge to show the connection - however the line 3 LEDs would only be needed if the TR train was on line 2.
