From what I could see it was the lead car when there were “mechanical problems” between Kingston and Neville. It got to Neville Loop under its own power, then returned to Russell with 1-2 more delays. But not 100% sure 4221 was the cause of the mechanical problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTC T6H-5307N 2252 Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 23 hours ago, bus_7246 said: 4228 is coupled to 4208, followed by 4214 and 4217. 4215 was moved, and roof packages were stripped by afternoon in the scrapping area on 20 track. A decommissioned CLRV was next door on 21 track, but I didn’t get to see the number So 4228 has its roof units removed or 4215? 4243 isn’t tracking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jor Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 I got a few pictures of 4207 also, which I rode i saw that 4207 went to russell loop and turned back to go westbound 17 minutes ago, TTC T6H-5307N 2252 said: So 4228 has its roof units removed or 4215? 4243 isn’t tracking I think he was talking about 4215 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like they've set up a car scrapping area at Russell. Some overhead is down and there's a loader and forklift there. Saw what I assume was the start of the process the other day with the loader lifting a car off the trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it went to Exhibition loop, but now I have no idea where it is We now have 4226 and 4249 going westbound on Queen. Anyone have any sightings or know if they’re in service ? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T3G Posted May 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 On a less pleasant note, 4204 appears to have been shut off. Hopefully this isn't the end of the line for the car - I was personally hoping this one would be saved, being that it was the first one to run in service so many years ago. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they only appear on 501 now 4230 and 4249 have been at exhibition loop for some reason, but haven’t run in service on the 511 That being said, Queen is being converted to 100% low floor in the June-July board period. According to Steve Munro, 501 rush hour trippers from Kingston Rd to Sunnyside will operate with 3 buses and it’s currenlty unknown if the trippers to Long Branch will continue. At that time, what will become of the ALRVs is unknown. Some possibilities include: Running on the 511 (especially during the CNE), operating as the Long Branch trippers, running as unscheduled extras or unfortunately the most likely outcome: them not running at all 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
