ROSTER NOTES



Fleet colors originally maroon and cream and were later changed to red and cream.

1 - 20-23 were built with a J. G. Brill body mounted on a Packard chassis. They were withdrawn from service on September 1, 1925 and placed in dead storage. All were apparently scrapped shortly afterwards with one exception. The body of #23 exists today at the Halton County Radial Railway, where it awaits restoration.
2 - 9125-9139 ex-Cincinnati Street Railway Co. 1345-1359 in 1953.
3 - 9140-9144 ex-Ottawa Transportation Commission 2006-2010 in September 1959.
4 - 9145-9151 ex-Cleveland Transit System 1201, 1205, 1207, 1209, 1211, 1212 & 1218 in June 1963.
5 - 9152 ex-Cleveland Transit System 1224 in 1963.
6 - 9200 was the prototype unit for rebuilding the trolley coach fleet and the only E700. This coach was rebuilt from 9020 and carried that number for a time after rebuilding until renumbered 9200.
7 - Traction motors, controls & trolley shrouds from 9000-9124 & 9140-9143 were re-furbished and installed into new trolley coach bodies, built by Flyer of Winnipeg, Manitoba, during 1970-72. Since Toronto wished to standardize on General Electric equipment, coaches 104, 106-108, 110-113 were obtained from the Cornwall Street Railway Light & Power Co. and 204, 205, 209, 217, 227, 246, 251, 263, 264 & 272 from the Nova Scotia Light & Power Co. (Halifax) in 1970. Toronto's Marmon fleet had Westinghouse electrical equipment and were scrapped. The Cornwall and Halifax acqusitions provided the necessary additional materials to compensate for the unusable Marmon equipment, allowing for the old trolleys to be replaced with new on a one-for-one basis.
8 - 9144 was shipped to Robin-Nodwell in England in 1967 when the TTC was conducting feasibilty tests on the rebuilding of its trolley coach fleet. This firm was unable to take on the project, and for a time, Flxible Ltd. of England considered the job. However they later abandoned the idea. Number 9144 was eventually scrapped in England.
9 - 9214 was destroyed by fire on August 30, 1972 and retired for scrappping.
10 - 9283 was destroyed by fire on January 9, 1973 and retired for scrappping.

11 - 9163-9172, 9174, 9176-9178, 9180-9192, 9196-9197 & 9199 leased from Edmonton Transit in 1990, their fleet numbers 163-172, 174, 176-178, 180-192, 196-197 & 199. Returned to Edmonton in 1993. The bodies were General Motors model T6H5307N with electrical equipment installed by Brown Boveri.
12 - 9149-9152(2), 9153-9157 & 9159 leased from Edmonton Transit in April 1991, their fleet numbers 149-152, 153-157 & 159. Returned to Edmonton in 1993. The bodies were General Motors model T6H5307N with electrical equipment installed by Brown Boveri.
