Many months ago The Star had a story about the potential to sell our old subway cars. This was only going to happen if the undisclosed counterparty won a contract to operate a yet to be built system in some undisclosed city. They were supposed to find out "late 2009". It's late 2009 now... do we know yet? Any guesses on what that city was?
There is a plan to possibly use some of the cars for condo and office space in Toronto.

Ankara (Turkey's capital) is the only city in the world that runs the same subway trains as the TTC (H6's). Wikipedia says they're building three new metro lines.

Hey folks, passed by the factory today... and I remembered my camera! I saw one new car and took a close up of the damaged T1. And a new GO car also. Although it's not too clear in the photo, the opening for the gangway is visible (but of course covered), and has the single wide window between the doors, so yes this definitely is a new TR car.
Enjoy!
