Lots of work going on at Dutton yesterday - impressive that they're working weekends, I think.
I know it's still a ways off, but this scares me: TTC boss Byford 'not happy' about new streetcar delivery delays
Summary: Toronto was supposed to have 40 trains by now, but they only have 3, Bombardier is anticipating a 4th coming online in February, a 5th in March, and then an unknown schedule. They've committed to having all 204 sets delivered by 2019.
As our FLEXITY Freedom LFLRV's will be built in the same facility that is doing Toronto's Outlook vehicles, I really hope that this doesn't cause any headaches for us. Toronto can limp along without their new vehicles - we cannot!
