The Valley Line Southeast LRT line was procured as a P3 Public Private
Partnership. While other versions of P3's have been, and are being used for LRT
construction, the Valley Line Southeast is the only one to use a Design, Build,
Finance, Operate, Maintain model. Consequently, TransEd will be operating and
maintaining the Valley Line Southeast for a period of 30 years. That means they
need their own fleet of equipment to perform those tasks.
This page will be covering 3 aspects of the fleet TransEd has employed:
Construction- A lot of the equipment used during
construction did have fleet numbers in the form of small and black stick on
numbers. Of particular interest was the equipment used by Western Pacific
Electrical to build the catenary. Some of the equipment used during construction
did continue on with TransEd into the operations phase. The equipment that
carried on will be included in the regular Operations section. None of the
equipment was actually lettered for TransEd during this phase.
Operations- The operations fleet includes the equipment owned
by TransEd for day to day maintenance and operations. This includes such things
as vans and trucks for facilities maintenance, hi-rail vehicles, supervisor/
incident response vehicles. Early on this equipment either kept the yellow/
black numbers or had nothing at all. Eventually, they were get fleet numbers
starting off with "TE" and TransEd decals on the sides.
Visitors- Equipment brought in for a short term project. This
will include, initially, rail grinders and an ultrasonic inspection truck.
This page will evolve over time. It is likely that as the system ages more
equipment might be required, and indeed, while it's not known yet how the Valley
Line West will be operated and maintained, one possibility could be that TransEd
will to contracted for that, which might require more equipment.
Interestingly, this is similar to how Edmonton Transit's LRT MoW fleet started.
Mostly just hi-rail trucks, the 3850 was a multi purpose vehicle, a speeder and
cars, and a hi-rail platform lift truck for catenary work.
The current fleet looks something like this:
TE101- Jeep Grand Cherokee Incident Officer full decals
TE102- Jeep Grand Cherokee Incident Officer? white
TE2608- Toyota 4runner hi-rail
TE2609- Ford F-350 with Falcon custom box
