  4. From previous answers I’ve noted; Using Wi-Fi technology from Orions is not compatible w/Xcelsiors. TTC does not have the Wi-Fi technology for Xcelsiors. Or they’re just waiting out until every Orion is gone, and then they might start activating it. Either way, Wi-Fi isn’t a necessity. It’s a pilot project program from the TTC.
  5. Uploaded 138 Photos to Flickr! Day 5 - The Final Day of the 2023 Bus History Association Convention in the Maratime Provinces of Canada. The following photos were taken on June 4th, 2023.

  8. Whatever was planned for 2020 might not longer be the case now, especially COVID has throw a wrench into service planning.

  10. 9072 9073 9074 have moved to Arrow Rd 3529 3530 3532 have moved to Malvern
  11. Dependins on what went wrong. If its not a major mechanical issue or accident it should be fine

  15. Going forward, early production work will take place in the Changchun facility unlike now where only the shells are made their and full assembly takes place in the Springfield facility. At this time, only red line car shells work in progress are at Changchun.
  16. Took a look at a few things when I got home today from the US and the Kingsbridge Garden/Elia intersection is a full closure. Being a full closure means they do the full intersection in one month than 2 doing a partly closure. Come April 1 (Fool Day), the 68 will be on another detour by the way of Ellia to Eglinton as there will be no left turns going north at Eglinton until April 14 for waterline work, Saw no notice for southbound nor east bound regarding no left turn. Didn't have time to look at the westbound lanes to see if it is open for left turns. Starting April 3, Elm intersection will be close for a month and expecting a full closure there as well. This will put 3 and 8 on major detour Got a notices that the next 3 months will see Sq One Intersection doing a partly closure, follow by Absolute that may see a full closure and then Burnhamthorpe. No dates for the closure, but expect Sq One in the next 2 weeks. There is a lack of communication between ML and miWay as to when closures will happen as well how long for so miWay can better plan for the closures as well informed riders of route changes. This includes having notices at shelters/stops not being service by the detours as well stops near the route change as most users will not be going to the website for updates.
  17. Bus 7866 kinda dead with 4 way hazards at Whitehorn Station doing the route 43 this morning but returned to service late this afternoon
  18. They do not. But the last 10 XDE40s and it looks like the last 10 XDE60s will have allotted space at the rear for the equipment as these buses did not arrive with the’Hybrid Electric’ decals on the sides of the rear
  19. The one under the driver’s side of the front windshield? It is the engine retarder disable light. All buses (post-2000. I can’t recall about the BYD buses) have the light. On the hybrids and e-buses, it is the regenerative braking disable light
  20. Yesterday
  21. I live near Keele and Wilson and just saw 9447. It entered service today. (Don’t mind the pic, I just put it here to prove)
  22. Interesting, at first glance the chocolate part looks a lot like a mini hamburger patty!
