Other divisions can decommission just as efficiently. -

All this without even knowing what the deficiencies are, if any. -
TTC NovaBus LFS Movement List
Bus_Medic replied to Xtrazsteve's topic in Sightings for Greater Toronto Area
The Wilson techs have been doing MTO related repairs for other divisions as their workload has nosedived with all the new equipment/warranty coverage. Gotta give them something to chew on to justify their paycheque. -
Powertrain component overhaul. Air compressor, alternator, starter, water pump etc get replaced. Ancillaries that can lead to a road call.

I’m through repeating myself. The clearance restrictions only apply to the older hybrids, and this is why. The 83s would be fine. -
TTC Nova Bus Delivery & Service Tracking

The orions were delivered unplugged too, but for NYDOT reasons. -
Everyone always puts the GMs on a pedestal, thinking they lasted over 20 years naturally. It was a shit ton of expensive labour, performed several times over. Bulkheads were still replaced piecemeal long before Gunn showed up. If the people controlling the money were to invoke austerity measures again, the current fleet would last as long as well.

TTC New Flyer Hybrid Electric Buses
Bus_Medic replied to Mar_AC_23's topic in Sightings for Greater Toronto Area
I predict the city’s and provinces’s finances are going to flip the chessboard on the electrification timeline very soon. We’re heading for a recession, and it will trickle down to public services. To add, if the CPC forms the next federal government….. Certainly I’m not excited about it, but I can read the room. -
All the infrastructure of a subway, but SMALLER! TINY EVERYTHING!

TTC Orion VII Retirement Tracker

The intention seems to be to focus on sending some of the 9400s to mcnicoll as they come online for RT replacement specifically. -
Operators might have called in sick en masse for their own safety when they found out what the assignment was. Definitely a not zero chance of that event turning violent. Wouldn’t blame them. I would have too.
