Take a behind-the-scenes look at how the GO Transit fleet remains at the ready. The Willowbrook Rail Maintenance Facility is an amazing Metrolinx facility where GO locomotives and coaches are kept running safely.

I'm amazed that this is all done in about 6 hours. Go Transit is just like the Long Island Railroad in my hometown, NYC.

Maintenance has never been an issue. Communication has for years. I quit using GO Transit in 2012, it wasn't worth the hassle anymore. Yeah, I know, stuff happens that's beyond the control of the folks who run GO, but it doesn't or shouldn't take 4 hours to get word to the riders who are stuck on a train, or waiting for a train... Nothing like finding out what went wrong on the nightly news as you're dozing off in bed, after a screwed-up day. But hey, hike those fares up again this year and tell us the same old thing - it's going to help GO Transit run on time !

Is the consist number the same as the fleet number? Like for example at 1:55 you can see the fleet number 2819 is that also the consist number?

@tjjames3447 Жыл бұрын

no sir, the consist number is the train as a whole and the 2819 is the individual coach number

@tjjames3447 Жыл бұрын

every coach will have a 4 digit number on it, currently a consist will have 12 coaches and all will have different 4 digit numbers.

Thank god trains run more often now, can't believe they used to run two trains a day for commuters only. Way to subsidize drivers and suburbanites which are already a plague for city's finances!
