But if it takes 10 days to get here presumably it takes 10 days to get back. So 20 days total between deliveries which is greater than the 14 days between LRV completions. That would mean at least 50 days until #2 gets here (10 days to here, 10 days back, 10 days to here, 10 days back, 10 days to here).
After the ION order that won't necessarily be true. there are a lot of vehicles that need to be delivered for Metrolinx in a short period of time and the Edmonton order goes a much longer distance than here or Toronto so only having 1 makes absolutely no sense to me.
