Not surprised at all. I blame components that were made in China.

3578, 3596. Both are still running on the Q-38 headed towards the Rego Park terminus as we speak.

Knowing LGA briefly had 5000's during the summer back in 2013, it's possible they're there for revenue service. Could be wrong though.

Worth noting that 7438 hit service on the Q23 earlier today. Even with the new buses, LGA is still short on buses, some of their RTS's are either getting scrapped or pushed to JFK..

And so is 7440

Saw 7238 doing driver training along Astoria Blvd 2 hours ago between 103rd st and 99th St

If LGA were to wind up with XD40's, wouldn't it be hell for LGA's mechanics to having to maintain another bus model? Considering they already deal with MCI's, Gen II+'s, NG's and RTS's to begin with. And besides, where would they turn to when they need XD40 parts since pretty much every other XD40 depot are all Brooklyn Division (unless certain parts are cross-compatible from CP's C40LF's)... I still have a feeling LGA may not get them..

Never had bus time installed to begin with lol

Uh-oh....bad....very bad...

With all these RTS's they've been getting, one's to wonder if MTA might be changing their minds anytime soon. Not for nothing, but should they actually receive their XD's, I highly doubt they'll stick around for long unless they can actually survive LG to begin with.

Over 95% of fans despise LGA anyway lol (some avoiding it like the plague) Although it won't be guaranteed that LGA may even get them at all with the MTA changing their minds on the last minute. Personally I think BP / JFK needs them more than LGA does but we'll see what happens.

7255 Q-58 if anyone wants to catch it.

It is with our deepest regrets that Phantom909 aka Joe (he was a member on this forum) has passed away last night. He was a BVE/openBVE pioneer and a legend dating back from the early days. His greatest works included the to Times Square and the to Lefferts Boulevard, and aided content developers with the materials needed (route skeletons, etc.) Without his efforts, we wouldn't have all these realistic and accurate routes we have today (and those that are works in progress). We would like to thank him for fostering the community of developers, and creating new ones May he rest in peace and his legacy passed on to future generations to come.

The issue with the Orion V model is because it's a bit too complex and rather complicated to split the parts. Also a nightmare to repaint. Good move on restarting the model from scratch though. Just make sure it's not made too complicated to repaint and not that complicated to split the parts. Try not to have TOO many polygons. I'm almost done with the 6v92TA script and halfway done with the Series 50 (and 50G) scripts.

I honestly rather see the XD40's at FR/JFK and ECH. At least they would fare better over there than they would at LGA.
