CJ. Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 Not really a collision but 8582’s alternator has definitely gone out. It sounded like a OG diesel yesterday and looks like nobody reported it in as it’s in service and sounding much worse today and was having trouble starting up after being shut off for layover. If u wanna catch it it definitely sounds like the weirdest TTC LFS I’ve ever heard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was the alternator the bus wouldnt be able to last the entire day of service, let alone back to back days because the batteries arent getting a charge.

If it was the alternator the bus wouldnt be able to last the entire day of service, let alone back to back days because the batteries arent getting a charge. It is possible that it was still getting some charge when not using stuff such as heating etc, or those batteries are really reliable. It was definitely the alternator because the lights inside the bus were super dim and flickering ever so slightly and the headlights kept dimming then maxing out again. The destination sign wasn't working at all the second day I saw it. In fact when the operator started the bus up the destination sign had flickered once and then shut off at Warden Station. I don't think most of the warning lights work on the old novas anyway just like the NG hybrids. They can have near flats, battery problems and nothing may even show up. If the garage forgets to fuel a bus and it gets marked down then you may not even know till it dies suddenly because even the gauge may not work. I witnessed this on the 102 just a few weeks ago Its in service right now on the 24 so it was likely repaired or it is something strictly electrical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yrt1000 Posted Saturday at 11:40 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 11:40 PM TTC 8629 lost its driver side mirror while on the 512, this time at the westbound stop by Vaughan Rd, which is another spot in which it is very narrow for another vehicle to pass in the left hand lane. I know it’s a relatively minor collision, but still an annoyance nonetheless as it requires a bus to be taken out of service on the route, and seems to be a near-daily occurrence because of the many areas along St. Clair which are tight due to the size of the lanes, along with the street parking. Of course, this could be all avoided if buses were allowed on the ROW, or at the very least, getting rid of the on street parking to improve the flow of traffic, but that’s a pipe dream. As it is right now, the 512 replacement buses are pretty bad anywhere west of Bathurst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
