7749 Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 About a week ago they moved 1376 so now 2345 and 2444 can be seen easily (the rear, anyways) so here's 2345 2444 on Aug 24 2021 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTCNLFBT Posted September 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 2252 had a two screen destination sign during yesterday's 100th Anniversary. The first (seen photo) says: "Moving Toronto For 100 Years" and the second signage says "100 with a TTC logo." I was unable to get the second signage photo of it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTC T6H-5307N 2252 Posted June 10 Report Share Posted June 10 I remember hearing that 2444 could be restored in the near future (in addition to 2252 and 8058) if there’s time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D. DeLarge Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 To recap, the original proposal sent to the commission was for two units to be preserved and restored, it wasn’t formally mentioned which but likely 2252 & 2444. A third bus wasn’t mentioned, but evidently 2345 was not disposed and retained as a parts unit for the process. This was all before the TTC got the 8058 back from the HCRY, and there was a lot of humming and hawing about its own future due to the 8058’s deteriorated condition while stored outdoors for years (for a time, ideas about using 8058’s older interior components in another bus floated around). At present, it looks like only 2252 (done) and 8058 (underway) will be the two restored, but who knows if things change again or someone decides to do another. Presuming 8058 will be done in its as-delivered livery, a third done in the CLRV livery would be nice…but just how much extra use or need they’ll have for 3 restored old GMs is another question.

Bus_Medic Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 8058 is back outside again. Make of that what you will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
