TTC CLRV/ALRV updates and discussion


Recommended Posts

Take this with a grain of salt, but transsee is reporting 4021 in the back of the deadline, last seen 22 minutes ago. If it was the last day yesterday, I gave her one final and proper send off at Exhibition loop, as I recorded it exiting as the driver rang the gong multiple times. Glad I said goodbye to an old friend:(.

511 4085, 4155, 4069, 4123, 4024, 4147 & 4048

506 None

All per Transsee

Looks like more went out:

4024 4048 4069 4074 4085 4104 4123 4147 4155 4187 on 511

4057 4081 4124 4178 4179 4184 on 501

Also in addition to 4021, 4091 and 4100 also are in the deadline, and stopped reporting data on December 6.

It's possible there might be some on 506 later. Depends on the Flexity situation. And of course around the noon hour, more cars will go onto 511 and 506.

Anything is possible, but the schedule only calls for 122 Flexities on Sunday afternoons, compared to 140 on Saturdays, and 149 for the weekday AM peak.

They delivered on Friday, and had only one 506 during the Thursday AM peak, so 122 should be easy to do.  I'd expect AM peak next week would be the likeliest time to see another CLRV on 506 if it's being driven by the Flexity situation.

It also appears that 4068 has returned to Russell after a long time at Leslie. 4105 also last tracks at Leslie still. 

Maybe 4068 will return to service, and I was thinking given that 4021 is the oldest CLRV that has been active till now, maybe they'll preserve it.

Apparently 4133 is having brake issues and is now parked at Wolseley.

Edit: Looks like it's going back to Russell on Queen.

Edit 2: And now 4069 is circling on the spare track as Not in Service.

If if 4133 was really having brake issues, could this also be one of those affected cars now as it was one of the units that was sent along queen to test after that track problem. Could have been a late spotting of this problem? Or just the fact its just broken now and not related at all to the queen problem.

No, 4068 (in addition to 4105) is designated as a Leslie Mule. Unlikely you'll ever see it in revenue service again.

Russell was empty today of all cars except track 20 with CLRV 4071 & 4143 waiting for the scrap yard pickup. Track 22 saw 4053, 4094, 4100, ?, 4091 on it

Caught 4124, 4081 and 4057 on 501

How do you know these cars are waiting for scrap? Were their headlights gone?

CLRVs only on the 511 this morning. None are on the 506.

4085 is running on the 511, but signed into the 11 Bayview bus. 

My best guess is someone, presumably the OP themselves, was playing around with the Luminator display at the front by the front seat.

I just spotted 4178 westbound on Upper Gerrard, not far behind car 4536 (run 17). I positioned myself at the back hoping to get a good photo, but it disappointed me by continuing south on Coxwell to Queen.

Interestingly it was tracking as run 14. Though  run 14 is also car 4528. It looked in service, though never quite got close enough behind me to be 100% sure.

Edit - looks like it turned on Queen, and just kept heading west ... now at John. I should have ridden it - would have got me downtown faster! Still tracking as an off-route 506. And it's last couple of 506 runs today show up in Transee - https://www.transsee.ca/trippath?a=ttc&id=155265937 and https://www.transsee.ca/triplist?a=ttc&fleet=4178

ON the TTC facebook post, It says the winners of the CLRV contest would be announced yesterday, Dec 9. I haven't seen a post on facebook or Instgram for this. Does anyone know how to check?

They haven't made a post, but the winners have already been selected, they went to random people in the comment streams and messaged 10 of them letting them know they had DM requests from the TTC.

For the Instagram, it was announced in the reply area for the post announcing the contest. I guess they were also privately messaged.
