Orion V Posted July 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 What was the reason TTC changed the latest batch of buses to the Gemini seats? A quick search on American Seating Model still shows the Insight in production unlike the Mariella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall the numbers, but they were ones out of Eglinton. This was last year, not this year, so perhaps the update you mention was applied. They re flashed all of them.

There are no vents in the extreme back of the bus, nothing has changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtrazsteve Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 Too bad 1414 is at Wilson while all the units close to that number is at MtD. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, I'm wondering what you might actually see out on a run (like my totally unexpected sighting). Obviously if you ignore that, 7878 could be on St Andrews (assuming it's not retired, haven't checked), 7979 could be on Scarlett, etc. 55 minutes ago, Xtrazsteve said: Too bad 1414 is at Wilson while all the units close to that number is at MtD. I forgot to think of the hybrids! Well, there are all the 3100-up buses coming in, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelvin3157 Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 And there's this old video (not mine), to top it off: It doesn't show the desto clearly, but it was operating on that route. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagaBus Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 If the 8510-8617 series from Arrow does move to Malvern, then we can expect 8585 to be on the 85. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't let the propaganda fool you - the LFS is not a real bus, just an illusion conjured up by the TTC to trick riders into thinking the fleet is more modern than it really is.

63 Ossington Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Is it just me, or have a heck of a lot of chimes on T1's and Flexitys been essentially muted? They're either very very faint or non-existent. I know I'm not going deaf because the TR chimes are still the same. On the Flexitys, this includes the stop request chime on the affected cars.

The stop chime on the flexities is different; now it’s a small beep that’s hard to hear with ongoing passenger convos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're either very very faint or non-existent. Nope it's not just you, it's to the point where the pressure release when the T1's are about to depart are louder than the chimes. Now I usually listen for the pressure sound as a gauge of how much time I have to board a train. We've gone from the chimes being deafening loud when they first did the updates, to almost non-existent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
