Introduction
On the 10th of February, 2025, the Auditor General's Office released a report on the training program for DROs (diesel rail operators) on Lines 2 and 4. This document is less damning for what it says about the training program itself, than for what it says about the City's contractual obligations, and the continued feeling that, to borrow Steve Munro's phrase, "no one is minding the store" at OC Transpo.
If you want to read the report yourself, it can be found in PDF form here. I will provide page numbers to quotes and key findings; these are the page numbers in the bottom-right corner of the PDF and not the actual PDF pages themselves. I will also annotate the quotes with my interpretation, reading [like this].
