  1. Found this! Hammer Transport Rambles https://hsrriders.wordpress.com/
  2. If 8, or even 10 cars could really be used on the TTC for real, but one can only wish.
  3. My route 8 Broadview I extended to Warden Station two years ago. http://www.communitywalk.com/8_broadview/map/1452004 I'd take Sheppard subway a little further at least to York University, otherwise very good. I don't have a problem with both stations, I just don't get why Ellesmere station doesn't have a bus platform. If 95 were servicing the station properly, the traffic there would be much different (greater).
  4. I only wish the system could handle 8-car train sets for real. CommunityWalk. 1 Davenport http://www.community...ort/map/1489873 5 Avenue Rd http://www.community..._rd/map/1236791 8 Broadview http://www.community...iew/map/1452004 56 Leaside http://www.community...ide/map/1491560 Yes, provision for Crosstown station included. 59 Maple Leaf http://www.community...eaf/map/1483012 123 Shorncliffe http://www.communitywalk.com/123_shorncliffe/map/877870 135 Gerrard http://www.community...ard/map/1463032 Plus more for other transit agencies. Just ask!
  5. I emailed Jason Nason, author (blogger) of Hamilton Transit Blog, Hamilton Today, and My Barton Village to explain to him the way I think buses should be routed in and out of the college with this new facility. Here's what I said in the email: Original drawing found at http://hsrtransit.bl...-terminal.html. As for the MRTC, http://bayobserver.ca/park-and-ride-a-line-enhancments-planned/ came out on November 5 about a park-and-ride lot and is likely the initial idea.
  6. GO opened a stop at the carpool lot at Highway 401 and Regional Road 25 a couple pf years ago. As well, Calloway Real Estate Investment Trust is partnering with Simon Property Group to construct an outdoor outlet shopping centre on site at the carpool lot inside the Halton Hills boundary on the northeast corner of Trafalgar Road and Highway 401. To my surprise, the carpool lot already has a bus loop that is currently unused. I factored this into the drawing of the route because right now Milton transit doesn't go there (not like they have any reason to now). http://www.callowayreit.com/upload/Calloway's%20Media%20Release%20re%20Simon.pdf Image Source: http://www.theifp.ca/news/mall-a-reason-for-premium-excitement/
  7. Route Idea 20 Georgetown/Oakville http://www.communitywalk.com/20_georgetownoakville/map/1520000
  8. Did you contact HSR about that?
  9. Let me try this again. I am not talking about the subway/rt train. I'm talking about in the station, on the platform http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WuF0ojndiU...feature=related Same clip, go to 2:50. You will hear the tone/tune (not the door chime) for 2 seconds.
  10. I'm talking about on the platform, outside the subway train. Listen to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WuF0ojndiU...feature=related (go to 2:52)
  11. What is the sound made after a subway train departs?
  12. My guess for the new engine are they installing in the LFS is the Cummins ISL, successor to the ISC (which is what I believe is the old engine), and it sounds the same. Am I correct?
  13. My #1 is: Birchmount Garage My #2 is: Eglinton Garage My #3 is: Queensway Garage My #4 is: Mount Dennis Garage My #5 is: Wilson Garage My #6 is: Arrow Road Garage My #7 is: Malvern Garage
  14. I wonder how much it would cost to replace the DDC Series 50 engine with Cummins ISL engines on each bus like SEPTA in Philadelphia is?
  15. Now that you mention it, no bus was ever numbered 6746-6999. Maybe it will ultimately be 1700-2019.
  16. Does anybody have any photos of the Sandalwood Facility?
  17. The fleet roster on CPTDB wiki has not been updated in a long time (except maybe photos). I only bring this up because I know that more buses have been delivered and put into service since the last real update.
  18. Are both Clark Blvd. and Sandalwood being used by both the transit AND Public Works?
  19. I want Mount Dennis to receive vehicles from both NG batches. Who knows, maybe even steal a couple from the 1000-1149 batch.
  20. Coach Canada already offers that service.
  21. Limeridge Road was a through street until 1996 or 1997 when the Linc was under construction.
  22. It's been over a month and so far no replies, but I did find this: Bus All-Time Roster Fleet Number Range ↓ Thumbnail ↓ Year ↓ Manufacturer ↓ Model Number ↓ Engine ↓ Transmission ↓ Notes ↓ 1401-1440 1992 NFI D35 1501-1563 1990 NFI D35 1701-1860 1990 NFI D40 2001-2051 1994 NFI D40LF 2101-2188? 2002 Orion 07.501 CNG 2189-2230? 2002 Orion 07.501 2301-2355 2004 NFI D35LF 2356-2410 2005 NFI D40LF 2701-2818 1996 NFI C40LF 2819-2900 2000 NFI C40LF 2901-3002 2001 NFI C40LF 3003-3024 2000 NFI C30LF http://cptdb.ca/wiki/index.php?title=Metro...ansit_Authority
