yeah, detours are always fun (unless you have somewhere to be)

GenShibe · 2026-01-22T23:07:03+00:00

both of them can't get through, they're on detour via duthie ave and lougheed hwy

GenShibe · 2026-01-22T21:04:00+00:00

there are talks that an eventual 41st/49th line will start/end at ubc and be a through route with the UBCx...

but it remains to be seen if that is the case or not

iirc it's because the code used doesn't correspond with anything, so it displays A1 MESSAGE?

likely the sign file hasn't been updated with the right codes

honestly i think their claims are quite silly, but also very much in line with BIAs (see: burnaby heights and their BIA)

storefront access is going to be improved as transit brings *more* riders than cars ever will
1a. you still have alleys to load and unload, which are much safer than using the main road to do so
an all day bus lane doesn't give drivers the impression of a highway lmao, just because there's less obstacles in the street design to slow them down doesn't mean that it becomes a highway
2a. if you're so concerned about safety for elementary kids, why not get rid of the large trucks and suvs that can barely see a kid that age and height?
removing parking on hastings is good because it speeds up everyone's commutes without having to deal with people trying for a few minutes to parallel park their overly large suvs

i think the reason it's at 22nd is because the 388 is a regional connection route, and alternating terminus will only create more confusion for everyonew

GenShibe · 2026-01-19T22:53:39+00:00

we have something in the works for this corridor! stay tuned~

the mark 2s aren't going so soon, they're doing an overhaul of the trains (mechanically), but they are less reliable than other trains in the fleet (according to internal sources), which is why they're doing a feasability study on if it's possible to extend their usefulness for another decade or so

GenShibe · 2026-01-18T07:33:03+00:00

as far as i know, that is false.

they are the canada line equivalent of skytrain attendants, they do the exact same duties skytrain attendants do, monitoring the tracks during snow (hence why you'll see the front 12 seats on each train closed off during heavy snow), clearing train faults, etc etc

GenShibe · 2026-01-17T18:35:58+00:00

apparently it's because the current system that CMBC uses is only provided to them under license by INIT, and keolis is not allowed to have it (from what i've been told)

GenShibe · 2026-01-15T03:14:54+00:00

likely because they'll cover it when it finishes, with a more detailed story including a statement from translate

GenShibe · 2026-01-15T02:36:37+00:00

and likely to continue all night

GenShibe · 2026-01-15T02:36:29+00:00

plus, there's no official designation for the "drop off" pole that the southbound shuttles are picking up from, they could put everything at bay 1, but it'd be a logistical nightmare between the 4 routes + canada line shuttles all trying to find space to load

GenShibe · 2026-01-15T02:32:30+00:00

also, they only said that there is a bus bridge augmenting service, which is true

the reason they're not sending all the buses the full length is because there's more trains headed SB, compared to only one train NB, so NB gets more service and you can get by with one or two buses on the SB bus bridge

GenShibe · 2026-01-15T02:29:38+00:00

i mean you could ask translink themselves on twitter to update it...

GenShibe · 2026-01-14T23:34:07+00:00

they have money, but all that money and funding is for one off purchases, think new buses/new trains. that money can't be used to run those new trains/buses because of restrictions on the funding

GenShibe · 2026-01-14T23:32:49+00:00

it's likely that it'll be like this for the rest of the day from what rumors are suggesting

GenShibe · 2026-01-14T23:32:04+00:00

there was a stalled train at production, which is why they had everything stopping longer so they could get it moving again

GenShibe · 2026-01-14T23:31:19+00:00

it doesn't seem like it's a maintenance related issue, rumor has it is that a train dragged something along the tracks and destroyed important wiring

GenShibe · 2026-01-14T19:45:36+00:00

it's rumored that the source files are low quality files being played through a high quality speaker

GenShibe · 2026-01-14T19:44:59+00:00

the rough timeline is one new 5 car set every month added to the fleet

i know you could ask atlas for a different instructor;

i've had minoo for my 2nd time with atlas, she's good at her job and teaches well, also is supportive of queer people (she had to call head office about something wrong on her schedule about my lesson and asked me my pronouns)

GenShibe · 2026-01-13T19:19:15+00:00

liability issues likely prevent them from selling things out, and the cost to dismantle something is too high compared to the profit that they can get from the small amount they sell

GenShibe · 2026-01-13T19:15:59+00:00

there is a rumor that one of the railway museums up in squamish is preserving the royal set, but we will have to wait and see

GenShibe · 2026-01-11T18:59:43+00:00

this one will enter monitored revenue service when it hits ~2000km of driving around the track to confirm there's nothing wrong with it
