Brand New Toronto TTC Electric Buses in Action at Kennedy Station! 9/17/2024

On my way from school, I spotted two of TTC's brand new electric buses training at Kennedy station around 12:30 PM today! Built and delivered this year, one is New Flyer XE40 Xcelsior CHARGE NG 6000 and the second one is Nova Bus LFSe+ 6601. For a week, these two eBuses along with a reference bus from the current fleet (3714), have been undergoing a 2 week head to head range test before they enter service sometime this Fall. They were shadowing route 34 Eglinton East when I spotted them. These buses are two of 340 battery-electric buses scheduled to replace a group of older Orion VII hybrid buses from the late 2000s-early 2010s as a part of TTC's goal to convert the fleet to zero-emissions. Currently, they are based at Arrow garage but it is not known if they will enter service from there or elsewhere. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing more of them on the road as time goes by!
