Summary

[edit]
Description Side profile of one of the double decker cars of the approaching GO Transit train. All trains of the Toronto GO Transit suburban network are double decker, and all trains are fitted for push-pull operation. (see previous picture). These double decker coaches arebuilt by Bombardier Transportation. These coaches, easily identifiable by their elongated-octagon shape and tapered ends, were designed in the mid-1970s for GO Transit by Hawker Siddeley Canada as a more efficient replacement for GO's original single-deck coaches and cab cars. Later coaches were manufactured by Can-Car and finally Bombardier, which now owns the designs and manufacturing facility. There are more than 700 such coaches in service and almost all have been built at the company's Thunder Bay, and Plattsburgh, New York plants. The cars have a seating capacity of 162 people per coach, or 1,944 per train and are primarily pulled/pushed by MPI MP40 locomotives, pictures of which appeared earlier in this album.
