TTC: Know when the 510 and 509 streetcars are coming and going

If you use the streetcar at the Queens Quay neighbourhood, then you know about the next vehicle information system, which we wrote about earlier.

Some chatter on Twitter this morning about the Toronto Transit Commission's beta testing of their GPS time notifier. It's available at this link (http://www.nextbus.com/wireless/miniRoute.shtml?a=ttc) and allows you to select your stop. So now you'll be able to use it to see when the next 510 or 509 Streetcar is coming your way.

We tried this application on our BlackBerry and it worked fine, just some display problems.

    i tried it out on my blackberry (#509). it was dead on.

    wish i had it during the winter, but it is still very much welcomed.
