T3G Posted November 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 Any idea what's going on with 4041? It hasn't been seen on the tracker in the last 3 days and it's reporting in the middle of Lake Ontario, which I've noticed is usually the death knell for these cars.

If the GPS gets lost (misreported signal, blocked by buildings, fault in the unit, etc.) then it sometimes shows up in random locations such as Lake Ontario. It doesn't mean the car is going to get retired, and many of the older streetcars go out of service for days (weeks) if they require major repairs. The new streetcars also go out of service for multiple days if they need repairs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car just recently received the external route speakers, but that was on a whim. The cars receiving the External Route Announcement (ERA) speakers first are the holds since they are the easiest to get first, then the regular 'good' service cars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bus_7246 Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 4013 has been retired as of this past Tuesday, and 4026 has been retired as of Wednesday as well. 4227's last day of service was March 2nd, 2016. The car hasn't been officially retired yet, but the part salvage from this car doesn't look promising for its road worthy return. 4203, 19 & 21 have made their way to Leslie, waiting in queue to get called for their life extension refurbishing to begin. Speaking of, 4230 has made it's way up to Harvey to begin its life extension refurb. 4204 has come from Harvey to Leslie to get a few final things done on the car before it head back west to Roncesvalles for its inspection prior to service. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I rode 4013 not that long ago, maybe a week or two at the most. Maybe on 501, 504, or 511? 4092 looks ready for retirement; the body is rusty and the linoleum has holes through to the plywood in lots of places in the back part of the car. Of course if we started a topic "CLRVs that look ready for retirement" we'd quickly include just about every one operating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T3G Posted November 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 Nah, some CLRVs did look pretty decent, 4041 was pretty nice, at least back in the summer. I for one am amazed that 4016 hasn't been canned yet, it looks pretty awful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighPark4626 Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 Several reported missing in action CLRV's are indeed in service. 4070 (on 512 Dec. 8, 2016); 4082 (on 506 Dec 8); 4098 (on 504 Dec 9); 4112 (on 512 Dec 9); 4143 (on 512 Dec 12); 4169 (on 504 Dec 9); 4197 (on 506 Dec 9). 4041 and 4108 still not observed 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TransitfanJW Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 4130 and 4212 both on 501 right now. 4245 should be active as well. 4081 and 4158 have been gone for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bus_7246 Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 4081 & 4229 are both being used as demo cars. 4041 has been down for a while with an outstanding issue as well. 4108 has a track brake issue that has to go up to Harvey shops. 4158 has been deemed decommissioned for just over the last week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, since I'm not management, I readily don't have access to the histories on the cars. 4041 will most likely see service again (the car was refurbished a few years ago). When exactly, I'm not sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T3G Posted January 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2017 PocketTrack is reporting 4041, 4081, and 4108 in service, on 504 and 501 (x2) respectively. Can anyone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttc rider Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 The latest TTC service summary gives 173/196 active CLRV's and 43/52 active ALRV's. Comparing the list on the first page of this thread with the last reported locations of various cars on PocketTack, it appears CLRV #4170 and ALRV's #4223, #4227 and #4233 are the "missing" decommissioned vehicles (i.e. not included in the list on first page of the thread).

bus_7246 Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 From the current count of the roster on the first page, it appears to be updated. 4170 is up at Harvey Shops for a truck change/overhaul. 4223 is probably not seeing service again as the car has been sitting at Roncy and hasn't received parts, nor has the car lost the IKEA wrap that it was sporting this past fall. 4227 & 4233 have been part salvage cars for the surviving fleet and will not be repaired for their outstanding hold statuses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bus_7246 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 4088 was just able to see a bit of 2017 before her untimely end on revenue service. She was cut yesterday. There a list of a handful of cars that were to be cut prior to 4088, but there were other outlying circumstances that superseded the handful. 4159 has also sadly taken a hit from the decommissioning axe today (I just heard about it from a foreperson). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
