<p>EXO commuter trains won’t idle as long on the tracks facing backyards in Westmount. EXO says they’ll get back to Vendome station faster for their scheduled departures. Residents say it’s been a tough month since the Lucien L’Allier commuter rail station closed for renovations. Meanwhile, EXO explained to us that when the trains are idling near Hillside avenue, they are doing a turn around manoeuvre. It’s the only place they can do this while complying with railway regulations. During this operation, they can’t turn off the diesel engines. We heard from a Westmount resident, Sheila Smith and EXO spokesperson, Jean-Maxime Saint-Hilaire. We also spoke with Westmount mayor, Christine Smith.</p>
