TTC7957 Posted October 8, 2022 Report Share Posted October 8, 2022 Spoke to an operator today on the 34 about what happened to the BYD's, he claims they are now withdrawn from the ttc fleet due to quality issues from his knowledge. If that is really true, I wouldn't be too surprised, but could anyone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom1122 Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 I heard at Hillcrest that they will have the BYDs fixed and put back on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherry_1560 Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 I found 7-8 BYDs have been sent back to Newmarket cause they disappeared on Hwy 404 on TransSee. If they will be put back on the road I believe it’s for repair and reliability improvement. If not, probably they will be sold to other companies.

Toro Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 3721 3724 are on 952 so they are definitely still arrow buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtrazsteve Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 They shuffle them around for training like they did with the artics when TTC first got them. Every 2 weeks they’ll rotate the 2 that got sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have asked where the new buses are going too. 134 Flyers, 134 Novas and 68 Artic flyers. lol. And when they are expected to arrive. I know there was talk of 75 Sherbourne, I wonder if they are installing charges along that route as well and what's going on with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
