For those wanting to know, these are the slow orders every day now with no end in sight of the slow downs, especially after the Rail Grinder blew a hose last week.:

1. Area of Haysboro Interlocking, both directions, both tracks: 40 km/h

2. Inbound on the Outbound in the area of Southland: 20 km/h

3. Inbound on Henry Kruger Bridge (when leaving Bridgeland): 30 km/h

4. Inbound at Deerfoot crossing: 40 km/h

5. Inbound in the area of Southland: 40 km/h

6. Inbound area of 58th Ave: 40 km/h (this one has been around over a year already)

7. Inbound area of 50th Ave: 40 km/h

8. Restricted Speed coming into Whitehorn Outbound. Restricted Speed is open to interpretation of the operator. Anywhere from 1 to 60 km/h in this stretch of track.

9. Outbound area of Signal C100 (underneath Shaganappi Tr): 40 km/h

10. Inbound area of Signal C117 (underneath 53rd St): 30 km/h

11. Inbound area of Dalhousie (when you leave the platform to just past the switches): 40 km/h

- Any crossing gates that are stuck up or broken or struck down: 20 km/h (RULE 405).

-There is a dip in the tracks outbound as you arrive at Sunnyside station when the train is at the 2nd car marker or just past the shelter on the platform. Noticeable on every stop on every type of train CT has in service. So far no repair and no slow order.

- Other problems have been reported at: Fish Creek outbound going over the switches and Anderson outbound going over the switches. So far no slow orders there, but they are coming.
