Per this tweet. All rebuilt Novas will come with the new white line and decals https://mobile.twitter.com/TTCStuart/status/1120328604246634497

As usual, people in the comments of that tweet who think move back decals are gonna cost millions and take funding away from other things.

I wonder how many people will actually listen to these things. People just seem to stand there regardless

I don't see any issues with the fleet number. I think it's fine as is.

You might not see a problem but someone with vision issues might.

I just feel like it could be a bit bigger.

It's too bad the trash old generation doors couldn't get replaced with the newer designed ones like I was hoping for.

As for the fleet number size, I agree in that it would definitely help if they were larger in size.

So after Mount Dennis, Wilson?

Wilson won't get them back till they are done the rebuilds for the entire batch. MtD artics will rotate to Malvern, then Arrow and MtD again if they do them in order.

If you haven't figured out yet, it meant so MtD has enough artic to operate the 29/929 and 41.

Since these are the first Nova's to be rebuilt, does anyone know what is being done as part of a rebuild in a Nova?

Is it a complete engine/trans rebuild, suspension, steering, HVAC - regardless of current condition?

9025 is waiting to enter rebuilt. It is sitting in a spot where units wait to go for rebuilt. 9031 9128 and now 9145 are here. Not sure they are there for rebuild or repairs. 9003 is missing more parts like its rear lights. 9028 is still there. The frame off 8573? Is still sitting by itself.

it is almost safe to say 9003 is done. I guess there are still parts that can be harvested off 8573..
