Yup. They are also dispatched on peak runs of any Queensway route. Outside of rush hour, they can only be found on the 192 or 300 (which are 192 runs' overnight trips).

Spare ratio isn't good at the moment. Good luck getting a change off.

Sightings don't just apply to vehicles; they apply to other transit properties such as non-revenue vehicles on city streets (and highways).

TTC 8424 is on the 32S extra that runs between the station. First time a Nova has done this route but not very special as Queensway is assigned to fill extras when Lawrence West to St George is down. It and most 32's ran pretty empty with the heavy congestion from Bathurst westwards.

The 52 is terrible too with the lane closure east of Dufferin causing buses to be up to 45min late at the end of their run. Same thing with the 85/190 with the lane closure west of VP.  It's a really bad month for construction around the city.

There were actually four of them: 4400, 4403, 4422 & 4424.

3 or 4 cars reserved for training every weekday has been pretty much the norm since the beginning of the month.

They definitely ramp up on training recently. I was on 4422 on an in-service training run on the 514 this evening. There were 3 instructors in TTC vests (2 sitting and 1 in the cab) along with the driver. The run didn't show up on nextbus. (4422 wasn't recorded as being in service today according to nextbus)
