This is from the person who heard it from their friend but doesn't know their friends name? I don't find that all reliable.
I do recall there was a roadmap for more trains but I didn't think it was this soon. They aren't even up to the current full fleet.
There are a number of trains (can't remember how many) that are affected by the frame weld defect recall that Bombardier has planned to service in the near future. Last I heard it was only 1 more train we were getting to keep us at the same fleet numbers, but that recall service plan could have changed since I heard about it. The would need to be here pretty early on in the new year to break them in for in-service use.
