Though I'm surprised TTC is going this way again instead of using former H-4 passenger cars. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would need to add third rail contacts? And then make it compatible for high level boarding? Considering how unreliable they are, what would be the advantage of that when we could use T1's.

What makes you think it would run under its own power? For all we know, it could become an unpowered flat car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
* Mr. Black * Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 Honestly, it has been said before that we have a surplus of T1 cars, a CLRV work car in the subway, wouldn't make much sense... That being said, a Streetcar system work car, could be more likely.... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T3G Posted April 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 From an archive post on Facebook: 4037 and 4090 left for scrap on April 5, 2019. I will have an update to my list of disposal dates in a few days. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTC4120fan Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Speaking of disposed cars, does anyone know what happened to 4057? It last reported data on either December 29th after the final run or the day after. I have never seen anything mentioned about the car after that date, and it doesn’t appear to be on property anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jor Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 I've never heard anything of 4124 either. What has happened to that car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That car last I heard is still on property and is still intact, at least from the outside. 4187, 4040 and 4193 also remain as well, and should be intact exterior wise.
