    For anyone wondering, this is completely false. Previous train models have lasted up to 35 years and that usually happens since they get a rebuild plus the youngest of these trains are only 23 years old. These trains haven't even received a rebuild yet and to say they're unsafe is an overstatement. Using Line 3 as an example is so mind-boggling as the two lines are completely different. Line 2 is a heavy rail line, while Line 3 was a light metro line using trains that weren't even designed to last 38 years.
    Realistically we should get newer trains since they have never components, so we don't stick with the old signal system for this long, but to create mass hysteria saying this entire line that connects Scarborough and Etobicoke is unsafe and dangerous, is completely unreal.

      You ignore the backlog of repairs, the Line 2 extension, which requires more trains, more maintenance, the signals need changing as well. This will take YEARS at this rate probably another decade, and by then, whoopsies, you're out of time.
      So no this is not "completely false". The difference being people like me fix problems when they're minor, whereaa people like you wait till the walls and ceiling are crumbling in before you notice there's a problem, which also increase costs.

      @@EVIL-C My point was that the news shouldn't be fear mongering the public making it seem these trains are at the brink of falling apart. Not that we should avoid getting new trains. Especially if these trains do end up receiving rebuilds, they can last another 10-15 years depending on the circumstances at hand.
      Getting the new trains would be the most beneficial option. Like I said with my original comment, we'd be able to replace that 50s signalling system, (We can't replace those signals now, even if we had the funding, unless we heavily modify the T1s to support the newer signalling system.) With governments stubborn as they are with actually befitting cities, and the country itself, it doesn't seem getting new trains is actually going to an option any time soon. We should get new trains ASAP literally due to inflation, considering to replace that amount of T1s is already 2.6 billion dollars. But if there's currently a cheaper option, in this case a rebuild program, then they'll probably go for that option.
      Needing new trains for the Line 2 extension is a weird argument I keep seeing tossed around. Greenwood yard is at capacity, hence why they reopened Vincent Yard, (the extra set of tracks between Keele and Dundas West Stations), to occasionally store trains there. I can see in some sense why we would need extra trains to have the entire line at capacity, but for that to even happen we would need a new yard. The Toronto Rockets (the Line 1 Trains) can't navigate through Greenwood Yard, as the turns are too tight for the bellows, and assuming the new train is going to come with many of the same features as the the Rockets, we can't really order them without a new place to store them, or we remove features on the new train, that are already on the Rockets, to satisfy operations at Greenwood Yard. There have been plans to build a new TTC yard at Obico, (a former Canadian Pacific yard located south of Kipling Station at North Queen Street, that is now currently owned by the Metrolinx) but it's uncertain that development is going to start now. Supposedly if we got the order for the new trains, development would start as soon as they can. Which is ironic when you think about it.

      The T1s were indeed memorable. Since it was the last TTC model that had public view on the front portion of the train. One of the key features that made this train special which was scrapped when the TR came in 2011.

  • @Alt1229_Transit
    @Alt1229_Transit Рік тому +22

    This doesn't make sense at all. Lets take it back to the H6. So basically right now, the T1s are about the same age as when the H6s retired in 2014. Me personally, retiring the H6 when it's only about 28 years old doesn't seem to be a good idea. Because, things get pretty useless when you retire trains that can still survive for another 10-15 years, not only that but it's also called wasting money. And upgrading the signals to ATC, just like on Line 1 is also a waste of funding. If the TTC is doing this to the T1s, similarly to how they did it to the H6s, things don't go that well, as like I said, it's a waste of funding. We don't need new trains as of right now to replace the T1s, they're still pretty much at an age where they can still live for around another 10-15 years or so. And about the H6s, if the TTC kept them running until the present day, it wouldn't be a waste of money at all, except the TTC could do some major upgrades, such as installing LED destination signs, do some refurbishment and overhauls, etc to keep the H6s and T1s to live more longer. Until they're ready to be retired and had enough funding to afford the new subway trains.

    • @martingr0ve64
      @martingr0ve64 Рік тому +3

      The H6 retired at 24-28 because we got enough funding to replace them with new Toronto Rockets, despite getting rebuilt from 2006-2009. Though they retired a little earlier than most trains, it was a good move in the end cause it led the TTC to make Line 1 fully ATC by pushing the T1s off Line 1.

      Well... as the video said they are old that makes it harder to find replacement parts and shortens the lifespan. Plus orders need to happen now specifically because usually it takes 10+ years to fill a order and or get atleast the first of your new models. Think of the H5s they were run down bad when taken out of service we don't want the T1s to be in bad shape cuz there's nothing to fall back on. There's enough TRs for line 1 enough T1s for line 2 that's about it give or take a few.

    The old trains can live another 10-15 yrs. The issue is that there are extension projects (Yonge North extension and Scarborough extension) under development. We will need more trains to run the new sections of lines when the extension projects are complete (in 10yrs-15yrs?), otherwise, we will have worse headway, and people will have to wait longer between trains. The time between the contract being signed and the train's delivery will most likely take another 8-10 years based on the TR experience. Plus, don't think it is economically feasible to equip the T1 trains with CBTC equipment (given that they might be replaced in the near future-10yrs) if we are going to implement Line 2 with ATC.

    You know what, I actually think it's about time that Line 2 starts having TRs do service full time & not when the T1's AC malfunctions. Even if the TRs cannot be stored at Greenwood because of the sharp turns it still seems doable if Wilson also shares in the responsibility of serving Line 2 with Greenwood just like Davisville serving Line 1 & Line 4. The reason I say Wilson instead of Davisville is because it's a shorter distance to Lower Bay as opposed to going to & from Union Station from Davisville prior to Lower Bay. Yeah so I think it's about time there should be TRs on Line 2 because it'd also be nice to move from 1 car to another without getting off the next stop or going through the middle door at the end of the car like some crazy people. TRs can be in Line 2 from when the T1s are retiring to when Line 2 has the T1's replacement

      Which is why calling the TRs T2s is so blatantly wrong (it'd be far more accurate to call the T1s H7s since the H-cars & T1s all have the same overall carbody, but with variations like width of doors/windows, eyebrows, gates, etc, whereas the TR design has nothing in common with the H-cars or the T1s except being the same width & height & similar length).

    27 years doesn’t seem that long for a subway train. TFL has much older tube trains and so do other European cities. I suspect TTC wants new trains that are cheaper to maintain because they haven’t the proper funding to maintain what they have. Look at the state of TTC Stations and you will see the system is not properly funded by the city. Which is why I believe a regional body with a proper funding structure should run the trains, subways, streetcars and buses like many large metro areas around the world.

      Then you wouldn't have enough trains for line 1.
      Line 2 trains cannot be operated on line 1 without ATC control.

      They only go to Line 2 rarely. The trip from Wilson yard to Line 2 isn't that worth it, and besides, Line 2 isn't in need of trains with capacity yet. Plus, the Line 2 trains aren't falling apart anytime soon despite what the media says.

    We have gotten soft, the trains are fine, they just look old and feel old, nothing a little refurbishment cant fix (plus its cheaper). Plus Line 5 is going to relive alot of the line 2 riders.

    Can we get Olivia Chow to fix the commute for everyone. Like I have to go to work extra early just to make it in on time. Than going home during rush hr has become more of a rush couple hrs. The constructions, the detours, buses constantly going put of service and people waiting over 30 minutes for buses or streetcars! This is complete ridiculousness! 3 hrs to get to and from work when it takes an 2 hrs to walk to and from work. How is the ttc any use.. we need a solution not a bandage

    I think that line 2 should have the new rocket trains from line 4 because line 4 doesn’t need them. Line 2 is very busy and should take the newer trains from line 4.

    • @MilkBento
      @MilkBento Рік тому

      the line 4 trains are shorter, 4 cars instead of 6. Also line 4 needs the new cars because it runs on atc, which the older t1's dont have.

    LRT was a complete mess. Cant even compare. Those things were not maintained well at all. Noisy and beat up tracks. Those trains were long overdue for a change.

    The T1 was my childhood ever since they were on Line 1 (Yonge University Spadina) I used to ride it from Downsview to St. Patrick Station along time ago to go to Sickids hospital. At first when I rode the TTC subway, I thought these trains were the 1995 Stock trains that are used on the London Undergrounds. I will never forget that day. I remember these trains were my favourite and they were everywhere before the Toront Rocket. I don’t know why but I liked these trains better then the old Hawker Siddeley H5 trains back when they were still running. Glad they were able to serve the Line 2 (Bloor Danforth) for a few years and also gives ne the chance to see them. These trains will be truly missed.

    The city needs to implement a special levy for TTC equipment replacement that has an infinite timeline. Make the millions of new immigrants pay for it through their taxes and let the greedy landlords pay for it through their taxes. Let the larger exploitive corporations that control the Ford government pay for it through municipal taxes!

    Most countries have trains that are 40-50 years old. 25 is nothing, and are in their prime. Total propaganda to gaslight the public into thinking we need to replace these trains which we do not.
