ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(03-09-2019, 10:31 PM)Canard Wrote: I overheard a few messages, like:

“We are waiting for BT to start our burn in”

“BT officials are now all on board, 514 ready to start burn in!”

etc. - and the operator was being ultra-polite and super-professional; even moreso than usual.

I have no inside knowledge; I’m afraid you will have to form your own conclusions. If burn-in began today in the afternoon I do not think it is reasonable to assume they were able to complete 600 km of running by the time they returned to the yard 2 hours later. Smile

I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a simulated burn in exercise. Real burn-in should be as continuous as possible ending only at normal service end times.
