leylandvictory2 Posted July 13, 2017 Report Posted July 13, 2017 no idea. 7576 broke down at the worst possible location. All the buses had to mount the curb just to get around it.
TTCNLFBT Posted July 13, 2017 Report Posted July 13, 2017 I think 7622 is done. I haven't seen it in service for over a month now. This bus had a full wrap for Dolphin Gaming.
7879 Posted July 19, 2017 Report Posted July 19, 2017 The following buses have been MIA for a while and could be retired: 7411, 7449, 7452, 7518, 7519, 7534, 7627, 7632, 7633, 7635, 7655 and 7802

I'll post as they are stripped and scrapped. On that note, 7511 has been scrapped. 7451 and 7513 have been stripped and are waiting to be towed away.
TTC T6H-5307N 2252 Posted July 19, 2017 Report Posted July 19, 2017 389 of the 7400-7881 series remain
BusFanForever Posted July 22, 2017 Report Posted July 22, 2017 7478 stripped, 7451 and 7513 are gone. To TransitfanJW to make it easier for you to keep the list updated, from now on when I post that a bus has been stripped, you can assume it has also been scrapped unless I mention otherwise. The buses are usually towed to scrap within a day or so and have been stripped of so many parts that they will most likely never see service anywhere again.
Kelvin3157 Posted July 22, 2017 Report Posted July 22, 2017 7567 was seen being towed southbound on Warden, cannot confirm it's fate.
TransitfanJW Posted July 22, 2017 Report Posted July 22, 2017 Just so you guys know, the main list will not be updated for about 3 weeks, as I am currently on vacation.

Per @leylandvictory2: #7529 and #7672 are also retired.
TTCNLFBT Posted July 25, 2017 Report Posted July 25, 2017 7412 broke down wb on Lawrence at Donway East. This one will probably bite the dust.
6254 Posted July 26, 2017 Report Posted July 26, 2017 With at least 93 buses or 20% of the fleet have been retired, any update of the list is appreciated.

Kelvin3157 Posted July 26, 2017 Report Posted July 26, 2017 I saw 7463 broken down on Sunday... Any clues?

leylandvictory2 Posted July 26, 2017 Report Posted July 26, 2017 it depends how severe the problem is.

Shaun Posted July 27, 2017 Report Posted July 27, 2017 Did New York end up buying these after all? Any idea how many KM's these buses have?

I know that order already cancelled due to problem with the buses that could no longer to use it so MTA might need more new buses to replace this orders.
6254 Posted July 27, 2017 Report Posted July 27, 2017 The retired ones have the lowest miles among all other models except the 92xx CNGs and the Orion III artics with around 700,000 miles because not only of their relatively early age but also of the fact that they stayed at Eglinton division for their entire 12-13 years.
noahrp24 Posted July 27, 2017 Report Posted July 27, 2017 at 0:41 you can see there's a TTC Orion VII that's already at the yard and has its front smashed...
