Tracker is disabled and it's at 1810 Markham with 1408. EDIT: Its currently tracking at MTD according to Transee, please let me know if I had made a mistake. Your source is correct. 1411 has been retired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have some of our 31-33xxs from McNicoll or Arrow Road. Queensway's last bus delivery was in 1991 when they had 35 Orion Vs. And @Genius101, we’ll take some or all of the Orion VIIs in return.

Kelvin3157 Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 Time for me to complain about McNicoll getting hand me downs. Especially 2252 grrr 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnalogPentium Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 In all seriousness, I really don't understand the problem with Queensway buses being hand me downs @Genius101. If it works, it works and that's all that it should matter. The passengers don't care, the operators don't care a whole lot and management certainly doesn't care. Please help me understand why you've made it your life mission to make sure Queensway gets new bus deliveries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion V Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 And he seems to have came into this board after the 74/78xx retired. Back then no one complained Eglinton and Birchmount had the oldest models in the fleet nor did anyone cared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queensway also had the oldest buses in the system in 2015-16 when the handmedown 7300s from New Eglinton were in their senior years but the D40LFs were awesome so yes sometimes the oldest buses are the best buses.
