* Mr. Black * Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 well back with me 333 tranny thingi think it's just an older build of the voith 4 speed and the 4th gear kicks in at 80km/h but don't quote me on that. can anyone help with these 3 things: 1. on any vanhool when you make any turn greater or equivalent to 90 degrees there's this weird high pitched whine that comes once during the turn and again after you are straightening out... i've been trying to figure it out for a while with no success.. 2. there's the chuff chuff noise, especially evident on the AG300'S is that the waste gate releasing the excess turbo pressure? and finally 3. do the nova's have a retarder that turns on once you let go of the accelerator or is it break activated? 1. no clue.... 2. I believe so, but not 100% on it.... 3. yes, the retarder is on the accelerator... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yrt+viva=1system Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 I was at Finch yesterday and noticed that the schedule for the 77 has been revised, it seems like YRT reduced the number of trips- can anyone confirm? (trying to find a copy of the old schedule to compare) Maybe "revised schedule to better reflect acutal travel times" is YRT's new way of saying trip reductions.

I believe its because the trips now take longer and the frequency is adjusted to trip times which means it shows less trips as the buses require more time to get from Hwy 50 to Finch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyfulsoul Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 i think i have so solution to the 90 destination sign problem for the luminator horizon's well i think... anyway i was on 575 today and it was comming down from the green with 585 runnning in tandem due to the summer school dismissal an extra bus was added and 575 had the normal 90 leslie to don mills station along with a p/r that said moving york 585 didn't and had the origninal problem could it be as simple as adding a p/r sign solve this issue temporarily? or we could go back to the classic 2 lined one slide display for 90...

yrt+viva=1system Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Well it seems like the conversion over to the Presto printer has started, was on 3 buses today and they all issued them through the printer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivablue5215 Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 You have to wait 24 hours after you register before you can request a conversion to non-adult fares. EDIT: I should make that clearer. You CAN request a conversion immediately once you registered, but the conversion itself happens 24 hours after you register and request it.

new.flyer.408 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Aaand PRESTO is working...everything's working from there now. Except for Enterprise WB vivastation (not in service), who's the genius that set that up... Does anyone know about monthly pass support/loyalty program? I know 32 rides gives you the tax credit, but there's nothing on 'free rides after so-and-so rides' that I've seen anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...aside from the fact 1102's printer spits the transfers out very hard. One even landed perfectly in someone's pocket without the driver or passenger picking it up.

All trips will be charged as $2.60 for the time being Update: Just got my card at 1:45, card 32 of the launch. For those who are planning on getting one, be prepared to wait in line. When your done registering you receive a water pack and a pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got mines at 4pm and I think it's card 607 as it's the 3 digit number at the back right before the expiration date. I didn't have to wait in line; in fact, there were several personnel there waiting to serve someone. You get a YRT/VIVA plastic water bottle with a YRT/VIVA pen in orange along with a paper card holder, a PRESTO info card, and a bunch of PRESTO infomation pramplets.
