ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
2/6 - Sunday, December 4, 2016

   
This crossover is between Albert McCormic Arena and the OMSF (just South of Weber).

   
Still not a fan of the R&T Park station entrance with those ugly fences.  I really hope one of those grand art pieces ends up going here, along with lots and lots of trees.

   
There's a huge stack of rail booting here, the same type we've seen where asphalt goes down.  This will be for the walkway to get to the platform.

   
One of my favourite sections of the line - because it's the fastest!  Here you can also see the 300 mm stagger back-and-forth that the contact wire makes, so it doesn't wear a groove in the pantograph of the train.

   
R&T Park station.
