ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

Once Grandlinq receives some of the vehicles, they can start testing and training.  That will take a while anyway, and during that time the remaining vehicles will (hopefully) arrive.  It wouldn't make sense to start service with much less than the full complement of trains as you'd have to take a big hit on frequency, and that critical first impression would suffer from people having to wait for a long time for the next train.
