Yup. Saw it Eastbound on Queen this afternoon.

They’re still going to remove them all after the EX. The 511 is returning to bus operation starting the week of September second.

Apparently, it was due to a broken water main.

I noticed 4408 at Leslie Barns today. Looks like it has been repaired.

.4217 is one of the few ALRVs that have still been seeing regular service .4220 has been sitting at Leslie Barns for some time now (retired) .4211 has been gone for almost 3 years now

It’s built in to certain destination signs. 504 Distillery is an example.

The Flexitys you see with the 502 sign up are not actually 502s, they just use the '502 Kingston Road and Queen' sign because that is one of the only signs available that have a 'Kingston Road and Queen' exposure. The only other option is '501 Kingston Road and Queen'. 502 is closer to 504 than...

None of the Dufferin-Bingham or Dufferin-Kingston Road runs are scheduled as Flexity runs (the exception is the night-car that runs from Dundas-West to Kingston Road and Queen, this is Flexity), they are all supposed to be CLRVs. However, on weekends and holidays, they swap some CLRVs for...

The Dufferin 504s are scheduled to loop at Kingston Road and Queen on weekends and during the evenings on weekdays. Some CLRVs just put a 504 Greenwood and Queen sign because that's the closest to Kingston Road that the 504 rollsigns get. The only other options are 501 Kingston Road and Queen...

It was 4487. I saw it Eastbound on Queen at Spadina today.

They only operate on the 511 on Sundays at the moment.

Yes, 4445 has been repaired and is back in service.

The reasons why cars move slow on Spadina are: 1. A lot of run-time 2. A lot of track switches (operators must stop at each facing switch to ensure that it is set for the intended direction of travel) 3. A lot of traffic signals 4. Busy route The cars can actually move quite fast in the right...

4478 is at Leslie Barns.

True, but what seems so simple to you and I the general public just don't get. Currently, it takes longer to just come to a stop and press the enable button waiting for anybody boarding or exiting to press the button on the door closest to them. They just stand there waiting for it to open. Even...

You've got it a little mixed up. First of all, in order to open the doors in the first place, the enable button must be pressed (unless the front door or rear door is being opened exclusiveley). Enable 'enables' the push buttons on the doors so that if they're pressed, the door will open. To...

The doors on the Flexities are definitely slower, but the cars themselves accelerate more quickly than the As and Cs do.

There is no quota, it's a predetermined amount of trips. With a 501 Queen crew for example, during a shift, we generally do 3 round trips. Our schedules are based on departure times from each end and each trip has a certain amount of time allotted to make it from one end to the other. Generally...

Streetcar operator here. The reason why we drive slow when there is no traffic is because the schedules are padded to ensure that when there is traffic or high customer volume, we can still make it to the ends on time. In the absence of traffic or low ridership, we tend to get ahead of schedule...

There are currently no 310 signs available on the LFLRVs, the nightcars use the same 510 signs as do the 504s.
