subject: | Thanks for being so cool + what's a code 23-23 on the GO train? |
Hi CJ,
First things first, love the blog/content/twitter account!
I'm a second year university student in the city and my parents live in the boonies (Milton) so I've become fairly accustomed to the GO life, and definitely appreciate it.
Nonetheless, I have noticed that irksome things that come with it - bags on seats, feet on seats, unwillingness to share legroom. You know all this. It's precisely why I think your blog to be so great! It addresses a lot of the less-than-pleasant behaviour we otherwise brush under the rug.
I also appreciate the insider perspective. You demonstrate an initiative and dig deeper when you want to know something. That's admirable, when most people wouldn't even bother.
I had an experience yesterday on the Milton train westbound to the 'burbs where right as the train was slowing down to pull into Lisgar, a chime sounded on the PA followed by an announcement of a "code 23-23 on car" 2326 or something. I looked up to discover that's not the car I was in, but was nonetheless extremely curious.
Do you have any leads as to what a Code 23-23 is?
Again, you're extremely hilarious and the premise of the blog is totally necessary. A service to all of- okay, some of us. :)
Thanks in advance!

Maybe they misheard and it was a 10-33?
That's possible.
If it was 10-33 then it's a passenger assist also known as the code that makes all of us groan, especially on a Friday night.
isn't code 23-23 'CSR come kill this talker in the quiet zone"?
^ LOL
It was most likely a code 10-33 which is passenger assist alarm. As a reminder, those are for EMERGENCIES, not for missing your stop. Nothing more annoying than the entitled ppl pressing the emergency strip after missing their stop and delaying an entire train..
