  I remember people in high school would steal any interesting ads, since the bus was FULL of people the driver would never notice.

  We used to steal the destination flags out of the buses when they were dumped at the Belfast Road site. I remember when we took an old one and unravelled it... Virtually every street where a bus route ended was on it. I guess it became impractical when we got over 100 routes! Sadly my parents made me toos it. Damn them!

  the old destination signs in montreal were only for some of the routes. they depended on the garage where the bus lived. when an inter garage lend was made with a bus they would use a plastic destination sign on the dashboard

  Here they just divided the city into areas, so you never knew exactly where it was going. Later they added all the transitway stations. Now most of the buses have the digital signs that still use the system of what general area they are going to, except now they will include a small "via xxxx street" underneath.

In the 80's when they still ran buses from the 60's with only 2 digits for the route numbers, they omitted the first digit which often confused people. The driver had to manually set the numbers at the side and rear of the bus also. Since these buses were normally used on the 2 digit rush hour express routes, it wasn't a big problem.
