These are all 2009's from what I understand and previously owned by MTA (the original 2251-2268) now NJT numbered 7101-7118.

If they purchased 15 buses hopefully, they number them as 2195-2209 or 3475-3489.

Except 7109, which was destroyed in a fire some years ago

Is this related to the express bus service increases due to congestion pricing?

Don't you mean Extortion Pricing?

Yes.

Effective June 30th, there will be service increases on the following routes: BM2, BM5, SIM1C, SIM4C, SIM23 and SIM24.

Now if they have enough b/o's......well that's another story!

Money that will leave drivers broke by the end of the day (except for commercial and city drivers). The MTA’s advice: don’t drive to Manhattan if you have no business of doing so. Use public transportation instead. That will save you the headache and pain from you getting into an accident or 6’ under for not paying attention on the road while you’re looking at your phone the whole time.

When will 7106 and 7112 re-enter service and what depot will they be assigned to?

The depot assignments for the MTA rejects are most likely gonna be between Spring Creek, Charleston and Yukon depots(I can be wrong on these assignments).

I’m picking Yonkers, Spring Creek and Eastchester. Yukon & Charleston are to get buses from Meredith when that depot closes in 3 months and a few for Castleton

NJT 7104 has been delivered to Castleton. New fleet number is TBD.

Meredith closing does not automatically mean free buses. The buses have to follow the routes to maintain service. The NJT MCI buses will help the spare pool, and will be going to SI.

Circling back to this. Fleet numbers will be 2195-2209.

7105 is 2199, 7112 is 2205

[DCTransitFilms]

Judging by what we have right now, I can see the numbering likely be this:

7101: 2195

7102: 2196

7103: 2197

7104: 2198

7105: 2199

7106: 2200

7107: 2201

7108: 2202

7110: 2203

7111: 2204

7112: 2205

7113: 2206

7114: 2207

7115: 2208

7117: 2209

7118: 2210?

Edit: is it 15 you guys getting or 16?

15 so one other 7100 didn't make it to Transit aside from 7109 and 7116.
