There are some seemingly predictable delays with the Skytrain. On my way to
work in New West, it has often stopped just a bit east of Royal Oak for a
minute or two (this is around 11:30 in the morning). Coming home around
8:30 at night, for some reason there is often manual operation between
Patterson and Joyce, then west of Joyce it starts acting "normal" again...

Once I was on my way to work and it blew a major fuse, I sat above Boundary
Road for about half an hour!!
