ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
Coming further up, we reach Block Line, and yet another sleepered-to-embedded transition. There's a good number of these around, but none that have been completely connected yet, to my knowledge.

Flip side of the road is the Block Line station area, which will have embedded track through it. Track got built first in this case.

The local TPSS sits proudly atop the fortress of retaining wall built for it.

It's impressive, the size of the plot of land between the freight tracks and the LRT. I can foresee quite a substantial development being able to go in here - I just trust that it will be properly transit-oriented.

Until it is built, there's quite a view from the crest of this hill. I wonder for how long riders will be able to enjoy it...
