A breakdown can be caused by a number of things, and not all of them are serious enough to cause the bus to be retired. Idle speculation is not helpful.

I rode on TTC 1127 on 126 this evening. This one was making a weird noise when I was riding. I have no clue what it is, but it doesn't sound normal.

That one seems to have a problem that can be fixed soon. Was it coming from the diesel engine or the hybird battery?

Figured this is probably the best place to post this, but just saw 8215 in the ditch at the 45° angle on Braecrest Avenue (the little street connecting Royal York and The Westway, where the 52F loops). Transit supervisor is behind the bus. I'll try to take a picture if it's still there in an hour.
