GO trains using ‘obsolete’ crash-recording devices
Someone at Metrolinx is leaking A LOT to Trillium in the last few months. They are clearly concerned about security practices.

It's nuts to me that the only way we get news from Metrolinx plans are through leaks or freedom of information requests.
No timeline, not even clear goals of what they are buildling. We don't know shit. It's insane to run a transit system like that. No wonder everything is late, it seems they don't even know what they are buildling.

GO train near Oakville was seconds away from ‘worst-case’ derailment, internal Metrolinx report shows
Again, this had to be leaked to the media because there’s no transparency about anything at Metrolinx.

The only delay was because someone pressed the emergency alarm and we had to hold at Exhibition for 5-10 minutes.

I dunno what people were doing last night, but my commute home involved me getting to Union, waiting 5 minutes for my train's track to be announced, and using an unused stairway (literally) to get a seat on a full but not overcrowded train car.
Sorry to all the people who surged towards the same 2 stairways closest to the concourse escalators, but if you had looked slightly west of there you'd have seen me breezing to my train.

I finally found out the meaning of certain Metrolinx signage at #GOTransit platforms. I knew the numbers meant the cab stop spot depending on the number of coaches. But "L" and "2L" confused me because they used to look like mileposts (an old one is still in the picture).
Turns out the "L" sign is the cab stop spot for the locomotive engine end of the train, and "2L" is used when two engine units pull the train. #trains #toronto #transit #railroad

Amazing that I can, from a #gotransit train (from Hamilton to Union), tune in live to #ottawa #cenataph #remebranceday ceremony. For the moment of silence, the 21-gun salute, and the bugle. Just wish all the data was staying in #canada.
