Some buses in the fleet now have proper security camera systems installed. This system will replace the current "DriveCam" system that only has two cameras (one pointed out the front windshield and one down the aisle of the bus) and is only capable of recording 20 seconds at a time in less-than-stellar quality. The new system has 8 cameras and should be recording all the time in HD.

Every time I get on at Dalhousie, the "next train" sign is just completely wrong. A Somerset train arrives when the sign still says "4 minutes". Or, when I get on at 3rd street, it says a Crowfoot train is arriving when it's actually a 69th street train. I got on the wrong train last week for this reason. I guess that's what I get for assuming that the information these boards provide is remotely accurate. And, in both cases, the voice announcing a train is arriving has consistently been playing after the train has already left.
So: Is it just me? If not, are they working on this? I mean, I'd frankly rather they just turned all that stuff off until it's working properly.

It's not just you. There are lots of complaints each day on twitter about the system. It's never been exceptionally great, but the past few weeks have definitely been worse than normal.
