Express691 Posted April 26, 2023 Report Share Posted April 26, 2023 Why not just have the thread for the entire lineup? Rename to 2006–2009 New Flyer LFR Retirement Thread In any case, I seriously doubt 2156 will be getting fixed especially given how much trolley service has been cut. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Untitled Transit Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 I have heard from an operator I know that 3317's CNG tanks have possibly expired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would theirs expire before the rest of them? They literally were built at the same time as the rest. I believe they have a 20 year certification. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrainWatcher2128 Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 Possibly could be to do with how the unit was running? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Untitled Transit Posted May 29, 2023 Report Share Posted May 29, 2023 On Saturday, I went to a location near the yard (there is this spot that looks in to the yard that isn't on TransLink property) and it looked like 3317 was just sitting there with the small door near the engine bay ripped open. Here is a photo: (photo taken OUTSIDE of CMBC property.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Marriott Posted May 29, 2023 Report Share Posted May 29, 2023 Units to keep an eye out for, that haven't run for over a year: 2101, 2106 and 8114 haven't run since November 2020. 2270 hasn't run since October 2021. 2506 hasn't run since the fatal incident on Cordova St in Sept 2021; this unit is unlikely to run again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about 2106 and 2270. 8114 is undergoing refurbishment I believe. 2506 is being repaired. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they bother repairing 2156, it’ll probably take as long to fix it as it takes to get heating parts for 2101, which will be retirement time anyway lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Untitled Transit Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 Based on some photos, 3317 has the rear sign removed, most likely a parts bus. Too early to tell though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FL04DIFN Posted September 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 3319, and 3343 also should keep an eye on Also suggestion for wiki; maybe change “X active units” to “maximum X active units” Also maybe put 9601-9604 along with 16131-16140 (except 16137) in the historic units section since they are no longer with CMBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
