So that leaves only 510 and 514 (both with the FIE install in progress?) in Kingston, plus the 501.

Has anyone heard any update on the 501 update/upgrade/rebuild status?

The only thing I've heard is it'll be last to come back.

In all fairness, I voted like a week and a half ago Big Grin

(And the whole time we were waiting, my husband was giving us updates - he’s a PolySci PhD student, after all!)

On the radio sounds like at least 505, 507, 509, and 511 are out... Heard 511 at Conestoga, everyone else is looping around further south (Cameron, Mill, Green, etc).
