Xtrazsteve Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 If anyone is wondering why so many streetcars are unpredictable, nextbus didn't update the schedule for this board period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just streetcars. Also, part of the problem is that the TTC made a LOT of small changes to a lot of different routes. It may take a couple of days to get everything up to snuff.

People will realize all the apps aren't working properly tomorrow. Most of the changes today are with streetcars such as 501 to Neville Park, 511 busitution and 512 returns to the full route. The 509 shuttle is also gone. Queensway doesn't have to contribute buses to that. Probably why no novas are out from Queensway today. The 510 is on a diversion between Dundas and College for the whole afternoon thanks to a leaning pole hence why its so unpredictable right now.

nfitz Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 Thanks for the update Dave. Now with car 156393 at Hillcrest after just dropping off 4402. And car 158091 en route with 4427. What just got loaded onto the third carrier in Thunder Bay? Car 157693 is reported as being loaded yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should be "flatcar", as in the railway flatcar that carries the streetcars (plural). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All railway equipment uses a series of letters and numbers to denote its identification. In this case, Nfitz is talking about the three flatcars that have been modified to carry the LFLRVs. All of the flatcars feature the letters "TTIX" which denote the ownership and types of cars, so he uses the remaining 6 numbers - which are different between these three cars - to identify them. 20 minutes ago, WKLis said: That should be "flatcar", as in the railway flatcar that carries the streetcars (plural). Go away Walter. The adults are talking. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bus_7246 Posted November 26, 2016 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Fun fact: a new streetcar (most likely 4427) was being pushed by two CP Rail locomotives e/b over the rail overpass over Ossington @ 4:30pm today. Most likely to the offloading dock over at Hillcrest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It boils down to whether the gap between 4427 and 4402 is an anomaly or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If 4430 is to be on TTC property by year end, it needs to be out off BBD property for shipment come Dec 24. It's then up to CP to get that car to Hillcrest for off loading by Dec 30/31. As it stands, that 26 days to ship 3 cars or one every 8-9 days apart. Given BBD track record between cars so far excluding 4402, we may see 4428 only. White number when car ready to go into service.
