7632 has one Presto device. No evidence to support that a rear door one was installed before that I can see.

Started cutting corners when they know they're never gonna send this bus on a streetcar route? Or they finally wised up that there never was need for two readers in the first place?

 

There's a dedicated Presto thread here. :)

In my experience, only one operator ever told a passenger to try the PRESTO reader in the back when the front one fails... And the front device fails way more often than the one in the back does.

With the upcoming requirement that TTC has announced to tap into buses in fare paid areas, all buses need Presto at all doors.

Please do not post the bus/streetcar has an electronic bell.

Someone mentioned that 4053 has the new electronic bell. This is a flexity bell. 4119 and 4017 has it for like at least 1.5 year now. :)

+4243,4113,4236-37 have the external working. :)

5118-5119-5094-5095 has the new TR chimes, so annoying.

+8214 and 1816

7788 has the GM Fishbowl/Nova RTS next stop sign.

What I hate about those new chimes is that they are not in sync with the doors closing. Most of them go after the doors have already closed.

Yeah very true, they are annoying.

Some TRs have it as well. :)

Yea, at the Doors Open 2017 event 5611-5616 was there, and it had new chimes and side destination signs too.
