Matt Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 There are two actually. Both look identical in the blue colour, but one is lettered for Palace Pier, while the other is lettered for Palace Place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Orion Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 7090 on 131. Not rare. I've always seen an Orion 5 on 131 every weekday at around 2:45 -2:50 on Nugget between Markham Rd and McCowan going WB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always seen an Orion 5 on 131 every weekday at around 2:45 -2:50 on Nugget between Markham Rd and McCowan going WB. Yup you are correct, for the last two board periods there has been an Orion V allocated to run 64. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivablue5215 Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 2153 today is on 53E Steeles East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2044 Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 That's weird. First time I ever heard of that happening. Any damage to the vehicles? There didn't appear to be any damage to any of the vehicles. It was quite the strage incident. Today 2153 was on the 85A this moring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That run Goes To Kennedy if i'm correct since the last time i observed 131 was September with 7105 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Onboard 1004 there was a medical emergency at Yonge and Finch. 5248-5249 HGTV wraps and 5196-5197 Garnier wrap in service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Orion Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 That run Goes To Kennedy if i'm correct since the last time i observed 131 was September with 7105 131 Nugget is out of Malvern and 43 Kennedy is out of Eglinton. I don't think that run changes to 43 Kennedy. If anything, that run from 131 Nugget changes to a Malvern Blue Night run (Possibly 385 Sheppard East).

Felix Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 YRT Not sure if this is special but an EZ Rider is on the 85A. Usually there is a SLF on it on Saturday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cronix_6649 Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Looks like Malvern only puts the Vs out on the non accessuble routes on weekends....7019 and 7039 are on the 54....I also saw a numerous amount of VII's on the 24 today, looks like its on its way to accessibility.

Orion V Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 YRT Not sure if this is special but an EZ Rider is on the 85A. Usually there is a SLF on it on Saturday? The SLFs frequent that route on weekends too, so it's not a surprise to see Riders there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articulated Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 YRT Not sure if this is special but an EZ Rider is on the 85A. Usually there is a SLF on it on Saturday? Usually I see the 2xx SLF's, which are 35ft instead of the EZ's 30ft. But, it isn't unheard of, or impossible. Looks like Malvern only puts the Vs out on the non accessuble routes on weekends....7019 and 7039 are on the 54.... Malvern does that on weekends, mainly due to the fact that there are more V's than buses needed during the weekends. See a few pages back. I also saw a numerous amount of VII's on the 24 today, looks like its on its way to accessibility.

And also the fact that routes 24, 167, 70, 22, 135 & 12 are suppose to use VIIs when every possible. All those routes are supposed to be officially designated accessible next board period, at the end of November. 12, 22 and 135 were supposed to be designated in September, but Birchmount lost it's VII's. This is also being discussed in another post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where does it say that, for that to be possible Bmount will have to get it's 11 VIIs back from Arrow and Eglinton and get an additional 40-50 VIIs since with all those routes needing VIIs Bmount will need 107 VIIs out at most (durring Morning Rush).

Curtis 7207 Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 For anyone wondering about the 2600's, we are down from five to the last two. 2600, 2609 and 2613 are sitting in the Arrow Rd deadline, leaving 2611 and 2615 as the last two active units. 2846 is also sitting in the deadline, along with units that have been there for months (2246, 2251, 2412 and 7243).

Anyways, Curtis, do you by any chance know what Nova is a Hillcrest, the one that was parked infront of 9402 last weekend that is possibly the Nova RTS rebuild prototype?

I believe that it could either be 7233, which hasn't been in service for more than 1 1/2 years, or maybe even 7237 which I think was in an accident a few months back.

I'm not sure if Arrow can cover that many VII's yet to go to Birchmount.

6254 Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Have 2605 and 2607 been moved elsewhere? IIRC, the annual inspection on 2600 was due in Oct 2006, 2615 is due in March 2007.
