on the transit agency's website allows users to take a walk through the new FLIRT trains, a LINT train and the Greenboro, Walkley and Airport stations, which are still under construction.

The line is now nearly two years overdue, after it was originally scheduled to open for riders in August 2022. OC Transpo officials have remained tight lipped in committing to an opening date.
This will be followed by a 21-day trial running period, which is required before TransitNEXT, the SNC-Lavalin subsidiary running the line, can hand the reigns to the city to open the service to the public.
