    Subject: The 'O-Train', the newest addition to the Ottawa-Carleton Transportation System.
    These Bombardier Talent trains travel the refurbished Ellwood Line of CP Rail track from Greenboro Station in the south to Bayview Station in the north of Ottawa.
    Each consist has engines at both ends of one passenger car, allowing it to travel in either direction without having to turn around.
    We have 2 trains in service at any given time and one in reserve.
    Each station has only one platform for both directions of travel, except for Carleton Station which has a separate platform for each direction accessed via a pedestrian underpass.
    Carleton Station is also the point at which the two trains pass each other during service.
