Would these be replacing or expansion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leylandvictory2 Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Perhaps a bit of both. I dont see how ttc will rebuilt all of the friendly buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bus_Medic Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 The older ones could be let go by virtue of their 6.4L powerstrokes alone. The only think they’re good at is self destructing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of a week ago or so, there are a couple of units still in progress in Harvey. 1 hour ago, leylandvictory2 said: Sometimes i wonder if the cab will snap off from its body based how the cab and the boey tilted at an angle. And yet with thousands of the things built, nothing has happened. Don't worry about it. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bus_Medic Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 I wouldn’t say thousands. I reckon there may be less than 25 in existence outside of the ttc’s fleet. Dallas-smith did chop the frames immediately aft of the cabs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen our units stripped down to the frame to confirm if the upper front portion of the rear passenger compartment is welded to back end of the cab. There may have been some revisions between the 1st and 2nd gens, as cab sag doesn't seem to be prevalent on the 2nd gens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
