Looks like 4507 has fail it first test and currently out at Long Branch Loop. It started testing early Wed after spend the last few days in the service bay, with its GPS being all over the place. It been here 14 days so far.
4508 & 09 are still not tracking after being here 10 & 5 days.
4510 was off loaded on Wed. Up to 110 delivery so far, with 94 more to go. Thats 8-9 cars a month now to meet current schedule for 2019.
Come April, it will be interesting to see how the new fleet is used, since there will be no streetcar service west of Dufferin for about 3-6 months for 501 & 504 and 511 still using buses. Could have about 130 cars in service by April.
Still seeing the odd CLRV on 504B.
Wouldn't be surprise to see next 5 plus cars going into service on 501 and increasing the number of new cars on it until it 100% Flexity. This will mean the end of the ALRV's. Its best to retire the ALRV's by year end.
TTC should be able to ship a few more cars to Quebec in Dec or late this month. Now, what is happening to the water damage cars?? Is TTC still going to ship these cars to NY or are they going to do it in house??
So far, BBD is almost a month late shipping cars from Kingston and will there be any here this month???
The failure rate has fallen again and not close to the 35k and less than 50%. Even the TR's are just over 50% for the 600,000 and how long have they been here??
