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:
“As artists they’re rot, but as providers they’re oil wells; they gush. Norris said she never wrote a story unless it was fun to do. I understand Ferber whistles at her typewriter. And there was that poor sucker Flaubert rolling around on his floor for three days looking for the right word.”
—Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
“I met a Californian who would
Talk California—a state so blessed
He said, in climate, none had ever died there
A natural death, and Vigilance Committees
Had had to organize to stock the graveyards
And vindicate the state’s humanity.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
