  1. Not surprised at all. I blame components that were made in China.
  2. 3578, 3596. Both are still running on the Q-38 headed towards the Rego Park terminus as we speak.
  3. 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.
  4. 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..
  5. Saw 7238 doing driver training along Astoria Blvd 2 hours ago between 103rd st and 99th St
  6. 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..
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. I'm surprised new flyer won as opposed to nova. Was hoping for LFS's at MTA bus I wonder which BC depots are to get the 40' Xcelsior batch. As long as it's not LaGuardia I'll be more than happy.
  13. Bullet hell games can be quite exhausting.

  14. Someone done goofed at ECH...1306 which was supposed to be set for preservation wound up stripped. Photo credit goes to KnightRider.
  15. Trevor Logan stated months back that once #1306 retired from passenger service, it would be preserved as #647.
  16. Not sure why 6626 would be following the Q58's path towards flushing..isn't that an ENY bus? (At least the depot stickers indicate that) Shot at 104th / Corona Ave If it was a depot move then never mind.
  17. Not like there's any hype for them, if anything, they're mostly forgotten...
  18. One particular operator takes out that one particular bus on a particular route on a particular time of day. That's why it's rarely seen but the tank's expiration date is just days away...
  19. The tanks expiration date is just around the corner, around ___ __ 2014. Yeah i'll let you fill in the blanks for yourself, not gonna be giving spoiler alerts lol.
