jamesmoon Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Well... we know that 52 are meant to stay until 2012. The others, not so much. Wasn't 2401 one of the LEP buses? If they are retiring there are 51 rebuilds left I guess. It looked rebuilt to me. I'll go look at it again at Wilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go look at it again at Wilson That's what I thought when it was sitting at wilson for numerous months with a missing panel. It came back before Christmas so I thought it was rebuilt. The paint job did look quite fresh as well when my buddy had it on the 117 last board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you check my list it has 52 buses and 2401 was not on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redhead Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 yep I looked at 2401 and it is not a LEP. Near it on the dead line are 2317,2352,2245 So 2245 is also gone then. Perhaps there might be one mass retirement before this is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLRV4037 Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I remember seeing 2481 on the 71 on the 18th or so. Oh well, there's still 50+ still alive. 2481 hasn't seen service in months. It was parked behind the wall for quite some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M. David Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 2245 should hopefully still be in service. I had the pleasure of riding this bus on the 196B when I was in Toronto over the winter break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does look retired but you never know. That side has seen buses in the past that don't retire. I didn't state that it was retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had a very long run. It was the first of that 8740-8985 buses to get the life extension rebuild 10 years ago. Here's a shot of it on Weston Rd in February 2002. At this time the bus was assigned to Arrow Rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
