8880 was a RAD. Started by being sent to pick up officers from 41 Division and then spent the rest of the day on the Caribana Shuttle.

Bit curious but do the sightings need to visual? I see some posts which aren’t even visual but are from the trackers

[Wayside Observer]

I saw a streetcar.

4500, the boring one, at King and Church.

Around 12pm today, TTC 3304, 3305 and a 92xx were all sitting on Lawrence eastbound at Warden. All were empty, just stopped on the road with their hazard lights on

I'd say yes, the general rule has been for "visual" sightings in this thread. Otherwise I can just download the entire day's Transsee reportings into a post...

Also, digital sightings from a tracking website should really be clearly indicated as such; in the past there have been instances where buses had the wrong unit # programmed into the GPS, so just by reporting the Transsee sighting it may not be 100% accurate as to whether that unit was actually on that route.

SW 324 just covered 2248. Pretty unusual to see a 2003 D40LF on the 20 Jane.

TOK Coachlines / TOK Transit #2803 on the BBTCA Shuttle. One of the last remaining ex-Medicine Hat Transit Eldorados if 2804 hasn't retired already.

TOK Coachlines 2806 was also on the BBTCA Shuttle alongside 2803 and 2805. Not sure what the fourth bus is since I was informed four buses are on this shuttle assignment at any given time.

Should be "up to 4". There's no need to have four buses on the short shuttle when traffic is light and when passenger volumes are low. The fourth bus could be parked at/near the airport terminal, to be brought out during rush hour.

I was informed 4 buses. Saw three so far (2803, 2805 and 2806). Of the three this is the oldest one and also uniquely one of the two ex-Medicine Hat Transit if 2804 is still active.

Another spotting today yielded this TBCL #5601 around Union

MiWay:

0922 on the 107

0568 on the 107

1120 deadheading on the 403 for some odd reason going eastbound passing Erin Mills. this happened around 5pm on my way to city centre, my guess is the driver got off the 35 and took the highway back to CX.
