Up to 21030 is tracking there as I know. Not sure if any others though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemackey Posted October 30, 2020 Share #754 Posted October 30, 2020 Here's what has tracked so far: 21001-21004, 21006, 21010-21011, 21030, 21032 (tracking incorrectly as 20132), 21040-21041, 21047, 21049-21052 and 21057. Nothing has been delivered yet. 21001 made it up to Winnipeg. NJT still maintains that this order is for 1104 coaches, and it appears that the last 33 buses will be delivered in the 2022 model year, by 2Q of that calendar year. NJT will still have hundreds of older cruisers - the 7100's, the 9000's, the 4000's and the 72-7300's. It's too early to tell if ridership will warrant the replacement of those buses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemackey Posted November 4, 2020 Share #769 Posted November 4, 2020 21003 is tracking at ADD, so I'm guessing it's being worked on or inspected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLiu15 Posted November 4, 2020 Share #770 Posted November 4, 2020 Apparently 28/45/117 of the 21000s will be going to Ironbound, Howell, and Meadowlands, respectively. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the good active remaining fleet wide D4000 are being transferred to Oradell bus garage. At same time, they are retiring the worse batch of D4000 at Oradell. Furthermore, the 1104 allotment of cruiser contract does not cover the Oradell cruisers. This separate contract will be published for bid once NJT has cleared the ongoing legal hurdle with the 56 plus acre of land in ridge field park. As of now the court’s legal decision will be made on the “papers” Nov 13 2020 at the bergen county court house. Stay tuned 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLiu15 Posted November 7, 2020 Share #775 Posted November 7, 2020 Does anyone know when we may expect to see all 20xxx in service? Yesterday I saw Suburban Transit's 20xxx parked in the front of their lot with 20176 inside their maintenance area, but AFAIK none are in service yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
