Hundreds waiting at Davisville as Line 1 slows to a crawl

 

The TTC is full of apologies Thursday for the colossal slowdown of service and crowds waiting for trains. Thousands more just gave up and walked to work. The explanation offered is that somehow overnight work to replace the 1950s signal system went off the tracks causing the signal system to give false messages to trains. Human error. One crisis point was Davisville Station. The top photo was tweeted shortly before 9.30 by Robert Lawson showing hundreds waiting at Davisville. The second, showing no room, is from Tweeter JuanCa Sarmiento
