A refurbished T1, 1647 before and after, and an Orion V Training Bus


Recommended Posts

Recently, I caught recently-refurbished T1 set 5156-5157 on Line 2. The main difference after the cars were refurbished is that they now have the new blue priority seats:

Additionally, today, I caught bus 1647 on route 94 Wellesley. In addition to being wrapped for the Gay Pride Parade (which it will probably participate in), it also is one of the few buses with a smaller than normal automated announcement screen:

 

1647 before being wrapped (June 4th):

Also, 1647's small announcement screen:

Finally, while going home from fanning 1647, I stumbled upon Orion V 7115 on a training run by Lawrence Station. While the 7000 series vehicles do come here late at night, it is very rare to see one here during the day:

Yes, they are receiving blue seats. Currently, the sets that I have seen with blue seats are:

 

5156-5157

5010-5011

5180-5181

5092-5093

5132-5133

5232-5233

5000-5001

5260-5261

 

There are probably a few other pairs that I have just not seen yet. I have not seen any on Line 1 and I am not a regular rider on Line 2.

I ride Line 2 everyday. I dont keep track of numbers but I do see more and more every week.
