63 Ossington Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Today shortly before 10 AM, there was a situation on St.Clair just east of SCW that resulted in streetcar service ending at SCW. The supervisor at Vaughan boarded my streetcar into the station to probably control the situation in the station. Through the portal, I could see a fire truck parked at around Forest Hill with it's lights flashing. Supervisor recommended to everyone to continue east via the Bloor line as while shuttles were ordered, they'd take forever to get here due to road closures and gridlock.

Mike Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 Related to the delay at King Station - saw a 509 Exhibition car on Dundas at Yonge. The driver was giving a long explanation to waiting passengers as to what he was doing there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGG330 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 Something went majorly FUBAR WB approaching Kipling at around at around 12:30pm today. The approaching train (T1) got tripped somehow and they had to back it up before crawling back forwards again into the platform. First time I've ever seen Kipling crush loaded.

The train on the southbound coasted out of the station to get power.Apparently, 3 idiots thought it'd be fun to play chicken with trains at track level. Not sure who told you that it was an un-authorized. Power was cut at Davisville for unknown reasons, the area was checked with no trouble was found. Power was restored in less than 10 minutes. The line-side paging to customers indicated "Power off situation". Supervisory staff were sent to replace the disk at the South end of the Northbound, but it was the train crew that restored the power. At the same time as that incident there was an unauthorized at Old Mill due to someone going to retrieve an item they dropped. Power was NOT cut in that case, and the supervisor doing the shuttle bus checked the area and cleared it in less than 5 minutes. You seem to have your wires crossed regarding the situations.

Uhh, no I don't think so. You're talking about a completely different delay. The initial power cut was north of Eglinton, around York Mills or Lawrence. That, in turn, affect trains at Eglinton Station. When the power was cut, we were in the middle of coasting into the station and there was already a train on the southbound. A few minutes after our arrival, and multiple annoucements made, the southbound train closed up it's doors and coasted down south of the crossover where there was power. The delay was clear after about 10 or 15 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDE Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 Minor accident involving a pedestrian and a Wilson unit outside of Lawrence West Station has buses not entering the bus terminal. The accident is actually blocking the entrance. The nearby RESCU camera is viewing the scene, but unfortunately, it's not available online.

ttcgeek Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 How does a stationary train coast from a station without power? Eglinton Station, believe it or not, is on a bit of a grade. When you put a train in coast, gravity takes over and rolls the train down the grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
