ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(04-14-2018, 02:28 AM)GtwoK Wrote: All trains delivered need to be broken in the same amount, but IIRC that's a kilometer amount (600km?), not a time amount. I would think they could get 600km of testing in in less than 6 months, but I'm not doing any math.

It's not just the vehicle break-in they need to do in that 6 months. They have  to do testing on the yet to be implemented ATP system and cab signals. as  well as the grade  crossings from Mill to Fairway and the traffic signals as well. They need all 14 here to do the ATP and cab signal part as it's the most complex and needs to be tuned for the proper headways with the vehicles.
