GM rebuild 2004 has been fitted with handstraps like the ones on the Orion V’s and VI’s. Experiment or accident?!?!
Within the last month, both tail tracks connecting the Sheppard line to the Yonge line have finally had their third rail installed, complete with wooden covers. Also, complete outdoor signage have been applied to Leslie Station (and I do mean complete. Stickers, and all). Some people think the station is open! The outdoor signs have also appeared at Don Mills Stn. Interestingly, a new route map was issued on January 1, 2002 (how long has it been since the TTC issued more than one map within a year). This version differs from the version issued in the spring of 2001 in that it does NOT show the Sheppard Subway by dotted lines. Again, people thought the line was in operation.
