Breathe easy

Tired of the GO trains that often sat idling near his home, a man asked us for help in raising the matter with Metrolinx. He told us he believed the fumes were causing him health issues.

Result: We spoke to Metrolinx staff, who confirmed GO trains do not idle for more than 30 minutes at a time. In light of our inquiries, Metrolinx reviewed other possible locations for the trains to idle. Metrolinx officials also provided the man with an air purifier and extra replacement filters as a goodwill gesture.
