Until further notice, it seems likely that some of OC Transpo’s peak-travel customers will have to wait a little longer to catch their train, as operations on the tracks revert back to a reduced service. And it’s not the first time we’ve heard this, either. On Wednesday afternoon, Interim OC Transpo GM Troy Charter held a press conference to address the latest issues surrounding the Line 1 trains. They identified an issue with the cartridge bearing assemblies on Line 1 vehicles, meaning all trains with a mileage over 100,000 kilometres are being removed from service to have their CBAs replaced. Until those repairs have been made, Line 1 will operate with single-car and double-car trains. Is a bigger problem causing these service breakdowns, and does this raise concerns with the rest of the O-Train’s arsenal? River Ward councillor Riley Brockington and Beacon Hill-Cyrville councillor Tim Tierney join Kristy Cameron on today’s Ottawa Now.
