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. They don’t even have much work running. Most of the New Brunswick lines use the van hools or the same few 17000s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemackey Posted November 11, 2020 Share #777 Posted November 11, 2020 I had heard that Coach had none of the 20000's in service, and that some of them (the Rockland batch) weren't even registered yet. This is because drivers are assigned individual buses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemackey Posted November 11, 2020 Share #778 Posted November 11, 2020 Update: Ex-Saddle River Tours 18118 is ready for service out of Meadowlands garage. It's been inspected and registered (OYB6753). NJT still hasn't decided what to do with 17063-17070. I can understand wanting to get the two restroom units ready to go, however, as they're probably itching to get rid of those 7100 series buses. NJT does have 30 more restroom buses coming as per the contract specs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the question would be, who would be getting the rest of the ex Saddle River MCIs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemackey Posted November 12, 2020 Share #781 Posted November 12, 2020 (edited) Yesterday was an off day as there were no bus inspections, and I believe MCI and New Flyer had the day off too. More 2021 cruisers at ADD. 21034 is tracking there. None of the six inspected buses have gone into service yet.

Tranzitfan81 Posted December 7, 2020 Share #798 Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) Noticed a couple of 16Ks tracking in Minnesota (16097-98) didn't know there were some missing buses. Any idea if they're making the trip Eastbound and to what garages?? Edited December 7, 2020 by Tranzitfan81 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
