"Please disregard announcements for the delay at Eglinton. We are experiencing technical difficulties. TTC technicians are troubleshooting" So was there a P1?

Maybe for some repairs

This transfer is older than my sister... Heh I'm guessing newer POP transfer designs were being issued in 1997 for subway stations... I'm surprised they didn't use the older transfer design!

Maybe it was just repaint from bodywork

Not sure if that's rebuilt... Rebuilds tend to have the Orion logo chipped off and the rear doors replaced.

Dundas West was a mess. Literally looked like Bloor-Yonge from the Westbound Platform, with trains pulling in stuffed.

Before we met: TTC: 1747 on 57 Midland to Kennedy Station A T1 on Line 2 Bloor-Danforth to Islington MiWay: 0333 on 3 W Bloor to City Centre After we spilt up: TTC: 1011 on 32 Eglinton West to Eglinton Station A TR on Line 1 Yonge-University to Finch Station 1147 on 199A Finch Rocket to Midland 1315 on 57 Midland to McNicoll

Eglinton is usually assigned to shuttle subway operators to Kipling, so I assume that 8637 was used. It's still there as of this post

Was the Orion Logo chipped off?

I'm guessing 8637 was used as a subway operator shuttle, spotted it at Kipling this afternoon Nice to see Arrow, Queensway and Eglinton Novabuses at the exact same time and place
