Until those problems are resolved, Metrolinx might as well forget electrification of the trains.GO Voyageurnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-64930629198485432092017-12-14T07:56:55.475-05:002017-12-14T07:56:55.475-05:00I just don't get how switches can fail....trai...I just don't get how switches can fail....trains are used all over the world in cold climates...why is this problem not solved?Skin Mannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-86349815411734008732017-12-12T19:52:37.083-05:002017-12-12T19:52:37.083-05:00Squiggles, this morning's LSE debacle was addr...Squiggles, this morning's LSE debacle was addressed.

Our resident's ...God I hate public meetings... Our resident's association submitted a couple of questions relating to the loud track maintenance machinery. It's a near nightly occurrence now - loud machines, 'back beeping'... Sleeping is hit and miss, ear plugs or not. One of my neighbours is building a sound wall. And now Metrolinx want to put a track 13 feet closer to our houses.<br /><br />The problem is they have no metrics - they don't know how loud these machines are or what levels cause disturbances so they just send them out. <br /><br />I fully expect lots of heated questions and lots of bland non specific answers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-73224166572431731632017-12-12T10:48:11.738-05:002017-12-12T10:48:11.738-05:00I was thinking the same thing Anon.
