The Humber College bus terminal perhaps. But what about the station? I assume they are going to be using (for eastbound) the stops at the SW corner of Humber College View attachment 700871View attachment 700872

I'm not sure why the 336 stops there but the 36 doesn't.

The 336 goes straight across Highway 27 and turns left onto John Garland to reach Finch.

The 36C rerouting has it turn left on Highway 27 to get to Finch directly.

As an old guy remembering something that happened to me 50 years ago...
I had a job that started at midnight, and the bus route I took there, only ran once an hour.
There were typically about 10 passengers, with a few getting on at random bus stops.
One night, the driver decided to take an unscheduled detour to make a long unscheduled stop.
Almost made me late for work. But nothing compared to how other people must have felt, waiting at bus stops that never got served.
I only saw this happen once. Assuming someone complained (it wasn't me), I'm not surprised.
Bus route name/number withheld, but perhaps you can figure it out.

Society yearns for more route 40 lore...

My guess is the 30 Lambton which used to have hourly service in the evening.

My guess is the 30 or 50, as they're the only other routes besides the 40 which have that diagonal angle of travel at the east end.

According to Transit Toronto, 50 years ago the late evening frequency on the 30 was 40 minutes, while no frequency is given for the 50, so the latter is my guess.

Getting very off topic now, but my guess the bus was orange, not red.

Gosh, I wasn't expecting posters to actually make guesses! T3G, you got it, it was 50 Burnhamthorpe.

How busy will the line be tomorrow? Is it even worth trying to ride it?
Click to expand...
Being free and a new line, it will be very busy like the day the 510 went back into service using the first two Flexity.

Hard to say how many will be there at 7:00 or 7:40 am, with no subway service until 8 am, but it will get heavy toward noon.

Would try the line in the afternoon or early evenings when the crowds will be thinning out.

Doesn't it turn left at a corner with a subway entrance? But it doesn't stop?

Though I guess the question is, what will be happening after the TTC routes are all adjusted. Presumably the old 36C service west of Humber College wouldn't be running all the way from Finch.
