Yes, I'd heard the maintenance on the hybrid buses is currently down by a non-union shop (ie they are still under warranty from the manufacturer). Therefore the purchase of more hybrids has been delayed internally until a deal is in place to protect the current maintenance personal from layoffs.

Well then maybe the maintenance team @ the TTC should start cracking the books to get competent to fix the hybrids, rather than bitch considering the damn things are, by what you're saying, still under manufacturers warranty. The fact that the buses are still warrantied gives them the chance to get competent for after warranty work...

If the workers aren't going to learn how to fix what's put in front of them, why the hell should they be kept around? :rolleyes:
