Summary
| Description | Another 2-car O train unit soon comes by. These are basically diesel railcar sets. The Trillium Line, seen here, is the original O-Train line. It was introduced in 2001 as a pilot project to provide an alternative to the busways on which Ottawa had long depended exclusively for its high-grade transit service. The system uses 2-car low-floor diesel railcar trains. It is legally considered a mainline railway despite its use for local public transport purposes, and is more like an urban railway rather than a metro or tramway. It is often described as ‘light rail’, partly because there were plans to extend it into Ottawa’s downtown as a tramway-like service, and partly because the original Bombardier Talent trains are much smaller and lighter than most mainline trains in North America, and do not meet the Association of American Railroads' standards for crash strength. More notes in previous and subsequent captions. (Ottawa, Canada, June 2015) |
