OCCheetos Posted July 15, 2022 Report Share Posted July 15, 2022 There was a press event today at the Walkley MSF to unveil the Stadler FLIRTs that will be used on the Line 2 once it reopens. This Twitter thread has plenty of photos (and video) of the outside and interior of the train (C13). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCIBUS Posted July 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2022 Have to admit the trains do look pretty nice come pared to the pervious trains. I really like the TV monitors in the trains. It'll be interesting on how OC uses them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oc4526 Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Went for a ride south of the Ottawa Airport to check out the construction progress at Bowesville & Limebank Stns. Both seem to be coming along well. I also noticed from Earl Armstrong Rd that rail is starting to go in.

Limebank Station Bowesville Stn Well, the good thing is they won't look so oddly out of place as Riverside South continues to be developed. The current community design plan has Limebank at the centre of the suburb, with a "main street" and a recreation centre and library nearby.

sseguin Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 O-Train Line 2 (Trillium Line) first opened on October 15, 2001 and was a pilot project to evaluate alternative modes of public transit in Ottawa. This video takes a look back at the line, as it was, prior to its temporary closure in 2020. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
