Equipment Issues Delay Lakeshore West and East GO Lines
Equipment issues are causing significant delays on both the Lakeshore West and East GO lines, as reported by GO Transit on Wednesday evening. These problems are resulting in extended travel times and potential service modifications.
Delays on Lakeshore East Line
On the Lakeshore East line, equipment issues were identified west of Rouge Hill GO Station. Trains on this route are experiencing delays of up to 90 minutes. GO Transit has warned that service modifications may occur as repairs are ongoing.
Lakeshore West Line Affected Too
Similarly, the Lakeshore West line is grappling with equipment-related disruptions. A specific incident impacted the 16:42 train from Union Station to Hamilton GO Centre, occurring just west of Mimico GO Station. Additionally, the 20:24 West Harbour GO to Union Station train has been canceled, with the next train set to leave West Harbour GO at 21:24.
Current Situation and Ongoing Repairs
- Repair personnel are actively addressing the equipment issues on both lines.
- No further details have been released regarding the extent of the problems.
It is important to note that GO Transit has been operating on a modified schedule following a train derailment earlier this week, which occurred on Monday morning. This reduced service level is expected to remain in place at least until Thursday.
Possible Connection to Ongoing Works
There is uncertainty regarding whether the current equipment issues are linked to signal repairs still in progress at Union Station.
