Also today, there were three ALRV's dispatched on 505 Dundas. Haven't seen this in a very long time, but it was expected with 501 replaced by buses and considering there are now enough Flexities to cover 511 on weekends.

I thought they were on 504 King when I saw them. Only 9 were out today. 4212, 4217, 4226 on Dundas and the rest on King.

33 cars in service right now - 14 on 510, 6 on 509, 5 on 514, and 8 on 511. Those route are 100% Flexity.  A record?  All vehicles except 4414, 4427, and 4432.

Hmm, and only 4 ALRVs out. Times change.

Edit. Meanwhile 4437 is up on Bathurst near St. Clair and 4414 looks to be about to leave Russell.  Edit ... and now heading home to Leslie.

4437 was on St Clair starting at 6 pm yesterday going west. Caught it going east at Lansdowne

We've seen 33 in service concurrently twice before, on Saturday May 20 and Saturday, June 3. 

Actually they hit 34 in service today after car 4414 was added on 509 as the extra afternoon run, which is indeed a record. For those keeping track of such things, we are up to:

a maximum of 29 in service during AM peak (or 31 if one considers the 2 runs that enter service on 510 around 9 AM as part of AM peak service)

a maximum of 28 on weekdays during midday

a maximum of 31 in service during PM peak

a maximum of 33 on Saturday daytime

a maximum of 34 on Sunday daytime (which happened for the first time today).

4437 is tracking on the 506 test run. Hope to see it in service soon

It will be tomorrow morning, bright and early.

Seems like they've been using it for training. It was out as a training car this evening.

Car 4432 was last in service on May 24. A pretty long stretch to be used for training only.

Well, I was following it this evening and they were operating with it in service on Spadina which they probably wouldn't do if there was something wrong with.

I highly doubt it as it's out for testing again right now. The 506 run hasn't meant the last day of testing for many of the recent new cars.

Something must have happened at the last minute to delay it. In any event, it has entered service for the first time this morning on 509 Harbourfront.

Didn't 4439 arrive yet? I think it should had by Thursday.

 

I don't think PCC 4549 have been in service this year. 4500 was at the Easter parade and ran for a few Sundays. Although nextbus reports it was last active 13 hours ago oppose to 9 months ago the last time I checked.
