Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Wed. January 21st, 2026

January 21, 2026

They identified an issue with the cartridge bearing assemblies on Line 1 vehicles, meaning all trains with a mileage over 100,000 kilometres are being removed from service to have their CBAs replaced. Until those repairs have been made, Line 1 will operate with single-car and double-car trains. CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent tries to make sense of it all.

And finally, if news breaks in real time, you’ll hear it live on CFRA’s Ottawa Now.
