ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
Hard agree on how language matters.

Maybe it's all this Arctic air, but it has me wondering whether there are any adverse conditions that our LRVs won't be able to handle. Running them through a snowstorm to keep the rails clear is one thing, but that doesn't get the snow off the top of the cab. And I imagine a centimetre of ice on the doors will cause problems, though storing the unmoving ones indoors and heating the moving ones might make that moot.

Are we going to have a "it's too sunny for trains" problem like GO occasionally does? Too windy?
