I'm not quite sure what you're getting at.
As I've said before:
Bombardier makes trains 1 and 2. Those are Metrolinx' and they're their "Pilot Trains". The first of which will be done in August, and head to Millhaven.
Train 3 is our train 1. It also goes to Millhaven, and then comes here in December. Bombardier says "we're happy with how testing went at Millhaven, here's your train. Now you do your acceptance testing" and the Region starts into the tests and burn-in outlined in the Project Ageeement.
Ours is much more "off the shelf - this is what you get." The Metrolinx relationship is far more "give and take" and they'll get whatever they want for customization or changes, since it's such a huge order.
Same thing happened on the TTC FLEXITY Outlook order. Lots of ongoing tweaks and mods.
Same thing happened on the TTC Toronto Rocket (MOVIA) order. Lots of ongoing tweaks and mods.
Buying trains is totally different than buying buses, where you just say "I want 20 Nova LFS'" and they go "Ok, here" and it's done.
