January 1, 1984

Service begins on a new route replacing the 41B “Forthbridge” branch of the 41 KEELE route as well as the 35D “Falstaff” branch of the 35 JANE bus. Buses operate from Wilson station via west on Wilson to Keele, looping via north on Keele, west on Calvington, west on Forthbridge, west on Chesham, west on Heathrow, south on Jane, east on Falstaff and north on Keele to Wilson. Every second bus reverses this looping. Service operates out of Wilson garage, 7 days a week, 18 hours a day.

September 6, 1986

Monday to Friday evening service and all weekend and holiday service discontinued. Last Monday-Friday trips leave Wilson station at 6.20pm via Calvington and 6.42pm via Falstaff. 41B KEELE buses provide service on Calviington between Keele and Forthbridge.

July 22, 1991

Service begins on a new rush hour branch. Buses operate over the regular route via Calvington to Jane and then head north to loop at Sheppard via east on Sheppard, south on Northover and west on Giltspur, providing new service into this area.

During off-peak hours, buses follow the regular route via Calvington to Jane and then head south on Jane to Wilson, looping via south on Jane, west on Beverly Hills Drive and east on Wilson. Service between Wilson station and Jane is provided weekdays only between 5:30 a.m. and 6:45 p.m. All service on Falstaff is replaced by the new 163 RUSTIC RD route.

A third branch is given a rollsign exposure. Buses on the 120B branch follow the regular route to Calvington and Chesham, looping back via east and north on Forthbridge before returning east on Calvington. This was primarily used by a handful of early-morning trips entering service, as maps indicate that this branch was operated during weekday evenings as the 41A “Wilson” branch of the 41 KEELE bus.

Evening and weekend service is provided by the 164 CALVINGTON-RUSTIC ROAD bus.

January 3, 1993

Upon the closing of Davenport garage, service on this route is transferred from Wilson garage to Arrow Road garage.

February 18, 1996

As part of system-wide service cuts resulting from the elimination of provincial subsidies for public transportation, all service outside of rush hours eliminated. A limited number of buses operate between Wilson station and Sheppard and Jane. The 120A branch is redesignated 120.

Route is revised to run through the Ancaster Park area looping in a counter-clockwise direction via Maniza, Powell, Ancaster, Gilly and Garrett traveling both to and from Wilson station.
