ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
The reason our system has lubricators from the start is because of the problems G:Link encountered.

Quote:"By modifying the friction characteristics at the wheel-rail interface using specialised lubricants, wheel squeal and noise was completely eliminated during trials carried out on the GCLR network."

Quote:"The team from the IRT recommended and tested the use of friction head modifiers at a couple of critical locations in Surfers Paradise which had a significant impact on reducing the noise at those locations.
