There have been some new ones recently off of the CN tower lately

378 - Some sort of landscaping or construction I think this may be related to operations on 278 as the Aliases are similar. such as "DODGE" and "Silverado"

Also have seen 528, 529, and 530. All seem to be related. It seems to be the same two guys talking and referencing the onsite and onsite TG's. Sounds like some sort of security.

The more I am listening to TG 1141 the more I believe that they are a construction company, which probably goes the same for the others that I mentioned in the 113x and 114x TG range. They sounded like they where down near the railroad tracks and mentioned the North End (mostlike Hamilton). Probably one of the crews working on connecting the tracks in the West Harbour GO Station to the the CNR eastbound tracks that goes towards the Falls or maybe crews that are working there and at new Confederation GO Station in East Hamilton.

1141 is definitely construction workers down working on the tracks at West Harbour GO Station. I have heard a few times them mentioning trains coming into that station as well as a mention of them being at WH. I will see if I can figure out which company this is when I take the train into Toronto tomorrow.

I have been seeing TG 437 pop up on the Hamilton site. I am not sure yet what it is as of right now. For some reason my ProScan is not logging RID's and I have no idea why but I did see that the alias on one of the RID's is set as "Toronto Dispatch" or something to that effect.

Interesting. I have not seen too many new TG's pop up on OnQ recently off of the CN tower in a good 6-8 months. Maybe there aren't as many new customers?

Listening to it a bit, it almost sounds like its maybe some type of Medical Transport Company.

that is what I though also

I been listening to it today and sounds like it's actually school buses, I am guessing either around Hamilton or Burlington as I heard Dundas (not sure atm if meant as the area in Hamilton or the street) mentioned.

Matt

Edit: Doesn't Voyago do school bus transportation too?

Heard it off of CN Tower also. Dundas could also be Mississauga or Toronto. Based on the "TorDispatch" radio alias. Voyager also does school bus transportation also. I would imagine that it's Voyager Transportation in Toronto. I'll have to do some more research (and listening) tonight to confirm.

I heard a St. Helen mentioned today.. and there is a Catholic school in the area of College between Dundas and Dufferin and there is one in Mississauga.. but I think it looks like whoever does the busing for the Toronto Catholic school system.

I did a little searching and the TDSB and TCDSB are both part of the Toronto Student Transportation Group for bussing but I am still not sure of which induvial bus company is using this TG.

Hearing Two new ones off of CN tower the last couple of days.

TG 90 appears to be some sort of school bus based in Northumberland "PTBO Base" keeps appearing. RID's seem to be in the 166xx range as like with Voyager Transportation TG 432,433 and 437.

TG 687 - Sounds like some sort of event security in Downtown Toronto seeing the Usual Aliases of "PORT 1", "PORT 3",

I was finally able to figure out that TG 196 was GFL in Hamilton. I kind of figured they would be them but finally was able to figure them out.

Matt
Funny enough, I've had that one stored for a while. Never got around to submitting it.. I am hearing more and more TG's that are school bus related. I've also been hearing 296 for quite a while off the Milton site. Sounds like some sort of garbage or junk collection doing pickups and dropoffs between Burlington and Hamilton.

Some very interesting activity on TG 687 off of the CN Tower for the last week or so. Sounds like some sort of contracted-out parking enforcement or security.

I have heard these guys on Hamilton's tower as well, 65 hits on it here so far.

The work connecting the line to the station and the connector to the mainline that goes eastbound towards Niagara Falls has been done for months and the TG's has been pretty quiet all tho I still hear the occasionaly transmissions on 1141.

Also now hearing TG 3062 appearing on the Hamilton tower today. I am seeing 4 RID's 12415/12416/12420/12422 so far but not sure what this is yet.
