You can't see any wraps on CLRVs when you are on a streetcar anyways... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stickers or wraps?

Even if your going 5 mph the low or high floor will cut off half of the wrap or sticker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christine Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 There's no more CLRVs (excluding 4178) on the 506. Looks like they replaced them with buses this morning. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw 4178 heading eastbound on Lower Gerrard near Greenwood - in a bunch behind 2 Flexities at around 8:30 - hopefully it was an extra, because 3 cars together on a route that only runs every 8 minutes means there's a 24-minute gap hiding somewhere. These service cuts aren't going to encourage more people to take transit ... with the typical lackadaisical TTC route management. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLRV4002 Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 I know that 4068 and 4105 are already marked as retired, but does anyone know what they’re being used for? They were both tracking at Leslie Barns earlier this week. My best guess would be that they’re maybe being used for parts for 4001, which also last tracked at Leslie. Anyone know for sure?

It did not sound very healthy, lots of noises coming from the back. Didn't sound like it was just a bad compressor. Other weird clunks and noises. Yup, I was on it last night on the 506. Something did NOT sound/feel right. Actually curious what it is .... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom1122 Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 I took a look at Hick's Car Works blog and 4034 has run under its own power at IRM on the short stretch of TTC gauge track built for the car. I don't know if it's previously been said, but IRM got an additional pair of CLRV trucks to regauge to Standard gauge to allow 4034 to run on the IRM line. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I have had bad luck with my picks with 3 out of 4 being retired. I have a feeling that the TTC is retiring my favourite units and picks because I entered the contest, even though I am below the required age to enter. Oh well . I will change my picks to 4048, 4081, 4089, 4123, 4124, 4133, 4155, 4165, 4178, 4184, 4187, 4193 making it to at least the 27 or 28. Me thinks that two of the following four units will make to final day: 4048, 4081, 4124 or 4178. 4021 was always a good unit, and I was planning to catch it tomorrow if it was out on Bathurst. 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's random runs since then, don't show up in Transee, suggesting that they were not scheduled runs. So perhaps the last proper 506 run was actually 4178 - it departed High Park around 7:30 AM. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
