O-Train Line 1 Back to Full Service
from Ottawa News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
O-Train Line 1 is finally speeding up—double-car trains return June 8th on weekdays, running every five minutes during rush hours, while weekends stay single-car. This comes after a serious spalling issue in train axles forced 41 of 59 trains offline since January, with even worse “shelling” damage discovered. Commuters endured months of delays as transit crews teamed up with the manufacturer to fix the problem. Now, with replacement parts in stock and a new real-time monitoring system in testing, they’re aiming to prevent future failures and keep the fleet running smoother. The delay also pushed back testing for the Line 1 extension to Orléans—stay tuned for updates on the root cause. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
