ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(07-08-2019, 02:57 PM)MidTowner Wrote: Another thread on reddit claimed that there was a ~40 minute delay to Ion as a result. Not good.

I drove by it and there were 2 maintenance people under the front of the LRV removing the coupler cover.  It then switched tracks and went back to the OMSF. Then there was another delay because the vehicle involved was sitting on the side of King north of Green when a GRT bus tried to make a left from Green to King and couldn't pass.  So it stayed there while the now resuming LRV's had to wait for it to clear the tracks.

During the time it took to clear the tracks a number of trains had to run opposite directions and I saw a 301R bus at one point.

Needless to say it has been a busy day on the radio scanner.
