Mississauga Transit Sightings

Rode 0898 on the 8 today, nothing spectacular. The stop request signs seem to be LED lit, I guess we'll find out for sure in a couple months if they don't begin to yellow.

Also two days ago, 0896 was on the 65 during the mid-day.

Video to come shortly.

0863 was running the 202 Express on Friday March 6. My office has a window looking out directly on to Hurontario, and I first saw it going North at around 5pm. About an hour later, as I was going home on the 19, I saw 0863 running as 202 South. That's the first time I've ever seen an artic on any 200 series express routes. I thought that was interesting...

Edit: haha, I just realised this might be in the wrong thread...

Figure I'd revive this thread since it is a sighting after all.

With all of the issues with there not being enough orange MiLocal buses to go around, it was only a matter of time before this happened. A blue MiExpress 1210 was on the last run of the 87 MEADOWVALE-SKYMARK of the night.

An observation with the external announcements with hyphenated routes like the 87, 76 or 43 is that there's a really long pause at the hyphen so that it sounds like "Route 87 North Meadowvale . . . Skymark to Meadowvale" I don't really like the generalization of "Meadowvale" are they referring to Town Centre? GO station? Boulevard? Theatre? Secondary? Community Centre/Library (post-rennovation)? The historic Village or the suburban sprawl? Coupled with the numerous routes that have Meadowvale in their names can get somewhat confusing!

They were filming something on Yonge St. at Dundas Square which was standing in for Times Square on Tuesday. One of the retired (?) MiWay buses 0101 with partial NYC MTA livery was parked in front of the Ed Mirvish Theatre waiting for its scene.
