      I live close to San Francisco and it has XDE40s,XDE60s, XT40s, and XT60s and three XE40s, nearly their entire fleet are Xcelsiors with the exception of their 30 footers

    The XDE60s are 9400 like the Orion Vs that’s used to be on the 29. TTC looks like it might get XE60s as there tend to be more NewFlyer buses than Novas in each order.

      @@AlexGetsAroundTO Hopefully not, also some of these 3Gs will not only replace some of the remaining 80xx OG Diesels, but also be supplements for the Novabus LFS 33xx rebuilt program. The 3Gs that were supplements for the 33xx rebuilt program will later move back to Wilson after all 33xx at Queensway gets rebuilt and repainted (they'll get red backs just like the other Nova Diesels).

      If you try to take the 32 one day... (As Alex said in the other comments) just stop at Dufferin then maybe you will find one... if you don't it's not the end of the world, you'll still find some..!!

    Kinda funny how 9400 & 9401 were delivered before the rest, yet they haven't entered service as yet but the other units after them have already entered service.

    Very nice! Vancouver also has identical buses with the same BAE powertrain and still has the new bus smell! Does the TTC ones also have a transparent roof hatch in the back as well?
