In my two year stint of riding the train downtown it would breakdown or have issues when we had a cold snap. -20 or below. Happened once or twice each winter. It only lasted about and hour or so but it backed up passengers for hours. Standing on the platform in that weather for 2 hours really sucked. lol. Not sure what the actual issue was, a frozen switch or something, no idea.
So no huge issues but like everything stuff can go wrong I suppose.
