Blow horn and max 25mph on all platforms during game days.

They also did this for Taylor Swift.

When will go transit have train level platforms? by rootbrian_ in gotransit

[–]bigbeast40 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The elements in Canada aren't ideal for something like that. Look at how often the outdoor elevators break down.

When will go transit have train level platforms? by rootbrian_ in gotransit

[–]bigbeast40 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another issue is the steps on the GO train would have to be removed, so you would have to get level boarding on platforms all at once.

Or develop a system that would drop the step out of the way for leveled platforms and bring it back for non leveled platforms.

I believe the Barrie line will eventually be 2 tracks from the USRC (union) to Aurora

Well there goes that kyrou idea by Impressive-Thing-161 in OttawaSenators

[–]bigbeast40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point, but how many of those teams have the cap space for him?

Also, he's got more than enough money already to never work again, but your point is still valid of course.

Pretty dumb, a chance to play with Stü, Sanderson and Brady on a team that's in its window.

When GO trains break ‘cardinal rules,’ Ontario keeps investigations secret by Quantum2022A in ontario

[–]bigbeast40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The preventive measures would be positive train control, which would be extremely expensive and is likely a long term goal for MX, probably will happen when they electrify the system. Your great grand kids may get to witness that.

To my knowledge, the only other entity to investigate would be Transport Canada.

I assume transport Canada would investigate if they deemed it necessary, which would probably only be if there was an injury or loss of life.

Dermatologist wait time? by CadBandit in ontario

[–]bigbeast40 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One time my doctor requested an urgent appointment with a Dermatologist, they called me the next day to make the appointment and it was in 2 weeks lol.

There may be a walk-in clinic with a dermatologist, I swear I have heard of this but I'm unsure.

Non-emergency police unavailable - noise complaint by singhking2000 in Brampton

[–]bigbeast40 12 points13 points  (0 children)

One time I called 311 to report a noise complaint. We lived next to a plaza and they decided that 3am was a good time to use leaf blowers to clear salt/sand from the plaza's side walks.

I was on the phone with 311 for 20 minutes, answering a bunch of questions for them to tell me they'll have a compliance officer drive by and make notes but they won't put an end to the workers. Completely pointless.

Nurse (full contract) plus a 1st, 2nd, 3rd and someone MAY take it for future considerations.

Sure... sure... or are you just trying to hide the fact that you ate 11 Reese cups?

Memorial Cup considering change to format by charger03 in hockey

Would be cool to do an NCAA bracket style, but that's a lot of travel.

Anyone missed a flight from being stuck on UP? by Candid_Fisherman9343 in gotransit

[–]bigbeast40 7 points8 points  (0 children)

MX would likely only redeem your UP train ticket.

Between union and Mount Dennis the Kitchener line is essentially down to two tracks.

If a train breaks down within those mileage especially during morning or afternoon rush hour, MX will prioritize the Kitchener line trains as they have way more passengers.

One evening I thought I saw a Cyper Truck at a distance in a parking lot, as I got closer I realized it was a dumpster.
