409 Thornton Posted August 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Over the past week or 2 i've seen 8159 quite a few times pass thru the terminal at the wal-mart on Harmony Road. Really? I haven't seen it since...July 23rd, and I haven't ridden it since June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leylandvictory2 Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 one Eglinton bus was definitely involved in an engine fire westbound at Midland and Eglinton last Tuesday. From what I heard it was 7412 that was involved in an engine. Thankfully the driver deployed the fire suppression system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bus_Medic Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Even if he didn't press the button, there are multiple sensors in the engine compartment that will deploy it for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leylandvictory2 Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 7412 is back. So I guess the engine fire is relatively minor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtrazsteve Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Nextbus says 1811 is back after being Mia for 2 months. Buses like 1094 and 1726 are still Mia. Bus_medic, maybe you know something about them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptorjays Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 For Mount Dennis, I haven't seen 1643 on any of the bus tracker app since January. Is it dead? or retired? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtrazsteve Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 For Mount Dennis, I haven't seen 1643 on any of the bus tracker app since January. Is it dead? or retired? You can't just visit transsee once a day to track buses. It involves sighting that bus and tracking it at different times of the day. 1643 was on the 161 yesterday according to nextbus. Unless it's a catastrophic bus fire, all Orion VII's are to be repaired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leylandvictory2 Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 actually it depends on the cost of repairing the bus. If cost exceed the value of the bus, it won't be repaired. For example an Orion 6 fell off the hoist, it was written off after that accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bus_medic, maybe you know something about them? A question for you guys - is there a site with info from past Nextbus feeds, or do you only note a bus is MIA by checking on TransSee frequently?

No that I know of, the only way is to track it yourself day and night. You can write your own program to track it day and night. 1811 is back a few weeks ago. 1094 and 1726 are still dead to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leylandvictory2 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 1114 had its fire suppression deployed today at Kennedy Station. No fire damage to the bus. Same thing with 7781 except its suppression system deployed on Friday right outside of Kennedy Station doing 21 Brimley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bus_Medic Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 Fixed that bus today ( 1114). Water got inside one of the infrared sensors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leylandvictory2 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 So all you need to do is to power wash the engine and refill the suppression powder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bus_Medic Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Well, yes obviously after tracking down the culprit of the false alarm in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bus_Medic Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Indeed it is. Spent the last 3 weeks in malvern renewing it's mto sticker. Also note that it has the current production 1 piece glass front doors from vapor. 1740 may go missing for awhile, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttcgeek Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 1740 may go missing for awhile, however. Is that the one that destroyed the Mercedes on Finch a few nights ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
