ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(12-07-2017, 07:23 AM)Canard Wrote: They’ve already started on Edmonton's order.

Are you sure? This article says first Edmonton vehicle is expected in July of August 2018 and Bombardier is on schedule. That would seem like a long time to build a vehicle.

The first rail cars are due in July or early August, and residents should see the first trains testing the track soon after. “Bombardier is on schedule,” TransEd spokesman Dean Heuman said in his bi-annual update Wednesday. “(Trains) will be on the track before the end of the year to start testing.”


Are they doing any other orders between Edmonton and ours? If not, that statement kind of worries me about the rest of our order.
Everyone move to the back of the bus and we all get home faster.
