ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

I'm doubtful the derail device (and overwidth/overheight detector) is in use, otherwise we would have seen this rectified within a few days of it going up.

For all we know, maybe the installation crew noticed it and alerted management, who scheduled repairs for later. Obviously on a non-emergency basis because it wasn’t going directly into service anyway.

Or maybe the sensor triggered when the snow came, the operations centre noticed, sent out somebody to investigate, and then schedule repairs.

Either way, perfectly safe operation, and given the size of the project, no evidence of overall sloppiness.
