ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(09-04-2015, 07:35 AM)Canard Wrote: I have a hunch that this has to do with the close proximity of the Seagram (Waterloo Park) station to the road:

Remember that stations along the spur will have Gauntlet Tracks, and perhaps the crews don't have the equipment (switch components, wide ties, non-standard road decking plates) on-site yet to install these. Note that no switches up at the OMSF have been installed yet either.

According to the design in the Project Agreement (C-PP-030), looks like the Gauntlet track starts mid-crossing.  Also, due to the proximity of the station, the tracks are slightly further apart in this location to come in either side.
