Anyone here actually take the LRT? I heard they are adding new axels so things should be much better. True?

They were definitely more smooth and more silent when they started replacing them last year. It's gotten worse since then, unfortunately. But not as bad as before the last derailment. I expect them to get worse as time goes until they actually get proper custom wheels and axles has been promised.
