Toronto Transit Commission 2007 Orion VII - 8042

This is a ride on Toronto Transit Commission 8042, a 2007-built Orion VII equipped with a Cummins ISL engine and an Allison B400R transmission.
In this video, 8042 is operating a route 501B from Gerrard & Broadview (Bridgepoint Hospital) to Queen at Bathurst. Buses are currently replacing streetcars between these two points due to construction along Queen Street in Downtown Toronto. We ride as far as Queen and Church. This ride was filmed due to the first ride earlier in the week on 8097 being routed down River Street instead of Broadview Avenue.
Filmed in the afternoon on March 23rd, 2024.

MTA New York recently retired these buses from their fleet.

These buses are gradually being retired now, by the TTC.
