1604 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Here is a link to the LED headlight manufacture that the U2s are currently being retrofitted with: http://www.jwspeaker.com/ Lots of cool info there Neat find! Looks like the ones on the U2s are model 8700. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airwolf Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I saw a mixed consist at Banff Trail Station heading for Crowfoot. 2031 was the U2 car in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick B Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I saw a mixed consist at Banff Trail Station heading for Crowfoot. 2031 was the U2 car in the middle. What were the SD160 cars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airwolf Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 What were the SD160 cars?Unfortunately I didn't catch those numbers. I was too focused on the U2 in the middle. About Three hours later I boarded 2101 in a mixed consist with SD160's 2244, and 2249 at Banff Trail Station and rode down to Centre Street Station.What struck me as odd was finding 2031 in an all U2 consist on my way back to Banff Trail Station later in the evening.

Greatcoinz Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 U2 Consist at Saddletowne bound for 69 street. 2040-2065-2075. Saw 2065 a few times last week bound for 69 Street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexle Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 U2 Consist at Saddletowne bound for 69 street. 2040-2065-2075. Saw 2065 a few times last week bound for 69 Street. Same consist leaving Saddletowne for 69 street at 19:10. As I left Saddletowne, 2046-2070-2053 came right after, going out of service to OBMF I'm guessing. Here's 2040 at 69 Street: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airwolf Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 I saw a U2 car isolated on a side track just south of Anderson Station this afternoon. Unfortunately I was going a little too fast to catch the unit number when I drove by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vicinity Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Expect to see more U2s on the 202 soon..why? Have they changed their mind about the matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick B Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Expect to see more U2s on the 202 soon.. Awesome! I always wondered what it is like to ride a U2 on the West LRT. Will this be permanent or temporary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Calon Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 And noticed the same consist this morning headed to Saddletowne just now... Seems really weird seeing 69 Street on those roller signs... So does this mean this train was on an all-day key? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
