Possible rendezvous point to swap for some remaining 33xxs, while the other guys bring the trios east and home They are continuing east now to Birchmount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifty4ever Posted December 23, 2021 Report Share Posted December 23, 2021 Interesting movements. Wonder if that's to do with the eventual active retirement of the Orion 7 diesels? Also interesting they're separating and regrouping the Air door'd 8400s and the Electric door'd 3300s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m most likely certain that McNicoll was a storage relief division. But space is still tight if Arrow Rd is the only division is ridiculously over capacity. The arrival of the new procurements (whenever that will be) will strain whichever division gets the new buses But back on topic: 3349 is now tracking at North Queen. I take it that this would now count as a Queensway bus…? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it that this would now count as a Queensway bus…? I'd consider it as Queensway. There used to be random 79/80s as well as 84s tracking at North Queen as they were storage for Queensway temporarily, and it is possible that this could be happening again. Then again I guess we could wait until it moves out of North Queen, this is just an educated guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it that this would now count as a Queensway bus…? Storage shouldn't be an issue as soon a large number of Orions will begin active retirement. Heck, they're already in the stage of "If it breaks down and can't be fixed with basic tools and such, retire it". If the procurement are mostly Articulated vehicles which we believe they are, they'll likely all or most will end up at Mount Dennis as this division was designed to be able to store and maintain the largest number of Artics of any division 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nova wins the order, then most of the order will most likely go to Malvern and the NG hybrids get pushed out to Mount Dennis. For the hybrid artics, Malvern would most likely get some of them and also Mount Dennis. The OG ISLs are suppose to begin retiring too so there would most likely be another division that would receive the new hybrids as well so that nova diesels can move to Queensway.

MCIBUS Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Question? Does the TTC store all there buses inside garages(all divisions)? Or Do they also have outside storage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
