ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
I don’t think I’d ever noticed that directions were actually signposted at the East end of the Frederick platform! That’s crazy! And, as Dan points out, it’s a bad design just inviting people to misbehave...

Urban sections of tramways and light rail get a bit fuzzy sometimes when it comes to where you’re allowed to walk and where you’re not.

So, assuming on Tuesday they pop down to Fairway again and finish off clearance testing that one section of the NB track between Fairway and Mill they missed, and the Northfield curve gets unveiled soon so they can do their powered testing up there, what does everyone think will happen next? A slow ramp-up of speeds for a single LRV? A pair of LRV’s out at once, either separate or coupled? Enabling of traffic and railway signals so the police procession isn’t required? Burn-in of a single LRV so Bombardier can be allowed to start shipping the remaining 11 vehicles?
