Transit Involved Collisions
Doppelkupplung replied to 7575's topic in Sightings for Greater Toronto Area
Hopefully everyone was okay. Reminds me of Miway 1354 many years back. Almost identical style of collision, but it did eventually return. Then again, different agency, different fleet size. -
2478, 2487 seen EB 401 in Milton, ON yesterday.
-
To operate on the 407, all CMVs are required to have a cmv-specific yellow transponder, which I've never seen on a MiWay bus, so I'd assume not. Although back in the Wonderland days, I'm assuming they did?

Saw a 24xx unit on a ferry trip this past Friday on the 401 at Hespeler Rd. in Cambridge.

Well, if you must ask....

Miscellaneous TTC Discussion & Questions
Doppelkupplung replied to Orion V's topic in Greater Toronto Area
That scaffolding incident was extremely cringeworthy. That was also just having knowledge of basic maneuvers (read: common sense), or perhaps the lack thereof. Is GOAL not a thing anymore? Even here in Mississauga I've noticed that drivers are either a lot more reckless and/or lack the sense to make smart decisions. Its simple stuff, like if there's a stop on the street right after a busy intersection, maybe don't block the entire intersection while waiting for the bus ahead to depart. Yeah, I like fast drivers too. But this sort of mentality gets people killed. -

Brother, what? Even the shittiest systems in the US still get some baseline funding. A major transit system would never go "under". It may run at a loss, but it would always have gov't funding. -
That express service is really awesome; I wish they ran more of those runs. Maybe not all the way to Niagara, but I feel like its a great service for people who live further west and want to get in/out of dt faster.
-
Sigh. What a joke Canadian passenger rail is.
-
How lenient is GO with allowing operators to make their own detours in this scenario? Are there restrictions on where they're allowed to take superLos downtown?
-
A little late to this recent string of rebuilds, but can I just point out how crazy it is that the LFS hybrids are being rebuilt now? Feels like yesterday when we were riding them brand new. Time is flying.

2023-2025 Standard 40' CNG Bus Procurement (Nova Bus LFS CNG)
Doppelkupplung replied to Express691's topic in Metro Vancouver
Any reason why these were delivered with the XDN/incity drive tires unlike the XDE60s?
