As a part of Toronto's "New Deal" announced this morning, the province announced they would be providing funding for the operation of the Eglinton Crosstown and Finch LRT, as well.
They also announced funding for the TTC to purchase 55 new trains to replace the line 2 TRs, which Metrolinx will piggy-back onto with an additional order of 15 trains for the Yonge Extension and Scarborough Subway extension. The TTC had an RFP out last year for these trains but had to cancel it as funding didn't come through in time. Thankfully it can now proceed.
