Orions are decent, except for Orion IIIs, Orion VIs (with doors at the very back) and hybrid VIIs. I and V would definitely have to be Orion's best work, although those are not without fault either (such as the lack of stainless steel frames on the V prior to 2000.)

Well even though I am an RTS fan, I will admit the ex bl o5s are handling better Than i expected given the abuse they have faced from mta bus. Lol, as for the cng bus, well I still don't see why anyone would want to jump thru all that red tape to own one when there must be plenty of the diesel version...

RTS is alright, but TTC's are rather poor so I can't really comment on them. One of the TTC's Orion V series is also heavily abused on the busiest routes in the city, and they just keep on ticking. Only a single unit has been retired.

As for CNGs... my favorite series of TTC buses is 50 ex-CNG Vs. I think they're better as diesels, but that's just my personal opinion. Plus, they got the Cummins M11 - good stuff.

lmao i hate the NGs... ugh. The 3Gs are not bad tho

Now that you know who is gone, we can again criticize that bus publicly.

@Astoria: The 3Gs look nice but I hate Toronto's. They restricted the best Orion Vs from going out on weekends.

@Threxx: Yup. No idea why he made such a big deal out of it, the VII is hardly Orion's best product. That would be the V, or the I.

As a foamer, I see PATH. I thought you were talking about PATH until I looked at it more.

I am so happy that R179s are here now

I can replay it on my end.

How odd, it works for me now, too. Must have been a temporary error.

I retract my statement, then - forced Google+ is the worst part of the updates.

I must be one of the only ones that's not opposed to the Google+ changes mostly because you dont really have to use it. I like it for the extra moderation, that's pretty much it.

Must've been an escaped mental patient. Or weed. Maybe he was on weed, that stuff makes people do some weird shhh.

There's this one video I saw that had a grown drunk man butt naked on the train showing his junk and everything. Scariest thing I ever saw.

No, this wasn't a mental patient... it was a student. I've been in classes with him, I thought he seemed like a normal guy, LOL

Wait until you stat painting it.

Luckily the only painting I'll have to do is to fictional models in Trainz. I just can't for the life of me think of a good color combo

I'll trade! Today the windchill was around 12 celsius (53.6 Fahrenheit).

Eh, I can possibly deal with that, lol. My ideal temperature would be 75 or 80 at most. And if the summers are pretty cool, then how are the winters over there?

The winters are even worse. -20 to -30 Celsius (-4 to -22 F) are a common thing. If you want to go outside, you'd better have many layers on and be prepared to not be out too long. I can't believe that 3-4 years back I was complaining about our lackluster winters and the fact that we never had much snow!

They need a better bulk editor for christ sake.

I like the ability to sort by year taken, but I don't like how the new photostream looks... there's just too much dead white space for my liking, which they could easily fix by making the photo thumbnails bigger.

But what I hate the most is the new album page. It just looks so bad. The giant black rectangle with album info is unnecessary (and it annoys me how, every time I click on the album description, it automatically brings me into an editor). Why fix what isn't bro...

what isn't broken?

RTS on the 53E Steeles East

There was an RTS on Steeles East? Dang, my rarest sighting of one was on Sheppard West.

Yeah, it was... not the most pleasant journey. Im not one of those people that can fall asleep easily wherever, so I was awake the whole time. Considering I was awoken at like 4 AM, that was not the most pleasant situtation. One journey was 4 and a half hours, the round trip was 9. I wish we had domestic flights from the town Im staying it, but we dont even have an airport.

Tough luck man.

Yeah. Ill have to come up with another plan next time I go there, because this journey is killer. Wish I had a car, the trip is a little under 3 hours that way.

It could it could?

oh... um wut

I mean what I said.

^ this

I think it may have to do with the fact that the 143s haven't left the L since 2008.

A subway car that's been around for several years is now on another line... Oooooo.... Ahhhh... *Sarcasm*

@ ttcsubwayfan, agreed.

the TV interviews people and they wind up talking about how they like the new Subway trains.

Well, there are a select few individuals who, for example, will notice if their home line is 'downgraded' (load of nonsense, really) from NTTs to R62As (one of the Lex. lines) but most members of the public don't know the difference between an R142 and an R62, and couldn't care less.

Go for it.

Why wouldn't you post them, by all means do so!

Teachers can't do anything to you, it's the office you gotta watch out for.

There's no such thing as attendance for me anymore...professors don't care.

A paycheck is a paycheck.

Clap-clap-clap! Perfect!

Allow it to express your feelings!

Thanks!
