Some issues on this draft article

ordered by the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) No, the contract for rolling stock, signalling, operations and maintenance was awarded to the consortium by Infrastructure Ontario in November 2022 (Source)
estimated cost of CA$9.00 billion The $9bn contract is for rolling stock, signalling, and operations and maintenance over 30 years, not just the rolling stock (Source)
built between 2027 and 2030 There is no source for this.
by Hitachi Rail in Tokyo, Japan. There is no source for this.
Project groundbreaking was held in March 2022 This seems to be copy and pasted from this link
Hitachi is the lead member of the Connect 6ix consortium, which also includes Plenary Americas, Webuild Group, Transdev Canada Inc, IBI Group Professional Services (Canada) Inc, NGE Contracing Inc., and financial advisors National Bank Financial Inc. and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp. This seems to be copy and pasted from this link, you would need to rewrite this to contain the necessary information

I would wait until more information is available - it may be too soon for a full article on these trains. Turini2 (talk) 17:06, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@70.31.132.87 please see these notes if you are editing this draft article. I maintain that it is too soon for an article about these trains, this information best lives in the Ontario Line article at this time. Turini2 (talk) 20:06, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@70.31.132.114 This article continues to contain:

multiple issues and errors (e.g. "Toronto Transit Commission is building a new subway line" and "Hitachi train sets will be equiped with PRESTO readers for fare systems")
spelling mistakes (e.g. nfilstructure Ontario, Roling, Commision)
poor phrasing and prose throughout (e.g. "The set will be a future project for the TTC, to provide for passengers to board", "As part of it's easily-constructed equipment, it will provide ... access to rapid transit", "Part of this car set will improve the quality of life for commuters")
A lack of quality secondary references
References incorrectly labelled - Reference 3 is apparently published by Metrolinx, but it's on Hitachi.com

I reiterate that it is too soon for an article about these trains, this information best lives in the Ontario Line article at this time. I recommend that the AFC reviewer declines this article. Turini2 (talk) 09:20, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
