when are we going to get new orange line trains
dredre1315 3 years ago
Soon...very soon...most likely by the beginning of the next decade. The next heavy rail order will be a combined order for the Red and Orange lines.

what's the other train called in the red line that is also used today?

The 15 and 1600 series are nicknamed the "Silverbirds." I'm not sure what the 1700s are nicknamed, though.

These trains used to have red cloth-style seats. But in the early 2000s they were replaced with black leather seats.

Thats right, 01469/01480 and 01470/77, but are no longer work trains, they are now used for Transit Police and motorperson/attendant training. Also keep in mind that 01450/55, two more, are at Seashore Trolley Museum.

The 01400s are LONG gone. They last ran in revenue service in 1994. There are a few left, but they are used as work trains.

I mean they still use the 01600's and the 01700*'s for the Red.
*01700's built by UTDC (Builders of the TTC subway, streetcar, and RT cars for Toronto.)
