Please wait on the tracks, your train will be here momentarily

Reader TomW emailed in expressing his concern about the contradictory warnings/notifications read out in the mornings on the LE.

Customer Service Ambassador Tom (God love him, with his voice that cracks like a 12 year old boy) likes to remind us all on the 7:53 out of Oshawa to "not cross tracks at platform level because high speed trains may pass at anytime, and it's dangerous and illegal" but he wants those looking to stop at stations between Pickering and Union to get off at Pickering and wait on Track #3 for a connecting train.

Kind of like that scene in the movie Stand By Me .... "Traaaaaaaaaiiiiinnnnnnnnnn!"

  1. I've been chuckling all day about this.

    Love the Stand By Me reference.
