Davisville Subway Yard - Rolling Stock

Rolling Stock

Davisville Yard is home to a small portion of the TTC's revenue rolling stock and some of the Commission's work cars that operate on the Yonge-University-Spadina line. Approximately 50 H5 and T1 subway cars are based at Davisville, although for maintenance record purposes Davisville has no cars allocated to it. Due to the track configuration of the yard, the facility is not able to accommodate most of new Toronto Rocket subway cars. They are generally stored and serviced at the larger Wilson Complex, however they are occasionally stored at Davisville. With the arrival of the TR trains, it is expected that Davisville yard will displace the T1's (including those that service the Sheppard line) to Greenwood as the older H-series trains are decommissioned.

Famous quotes containing the words rolling and/or stock:

    The child is innocence and forgetting, a new beginning, a game, a wheel rolling on its own, a prime movement, a sacred Yes.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    There exists, between people in love, a kind of capital held by each. This is not just a stock of affects or pleasure, but also the possibility of playing double or quits with the share you hold in the other’s heart.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
