JFK Depot

Jamaica don't want em... They didn't want the NGs they had... The 19-20 left they have now I don't expect to stay too much longer

I was told that ENY wants that first batch of XDs... UP isn't too happy with having to give those up UP doesn't want OGs in return... ENY wants to dump those OGs on to someone... In the midst of all of this Jamaica's original order was tapped to help out ENY while they settle the shifting around business throughout the system There's way more to this but I tried to condense it as much as possible

The pilot bus 3563 was fine after teething issues but overall they wanted to see if the conversion added on extra life to the bus but it doesn't and it's more expensive to gut out the hybrid remove the batteries and throw a whole new tranny in there just for it to still be retired in the 2-4years It's just not worth the headache....

If I'm not mistaken... I peeped this same bus doing driver training last week at Baisley Park

Is Jamaica and Queens Village done on the LFS order ? QV seems like it's done Doesn't ENY owe JA some LFS ?

That is interesting considering the fact that BP was suppose to get LFSAs and not XD60s... In other news I would guess they were doing borough wide driver training in Queens... 4916 seen on Rockaway Blvd driver training...

8944 is definitely one of them.... Seen it during rush hour on the Q4... Get your pics early they are about to be gone Bye Bye 1996 Novas✌????️

Those are ODD BALL buses... You can't just move 1 or 2... They'd have to move them all and it really makes no sense to move them at this point.... QV in the long run will probably end up with XDs to go with the LFS...

8453 on the Q3

I have a picture of 8433 on the Q3 but my photobucket isn't working smh

Taken Yesterday Morning

8432 to JA... Pics of it on the Q5

None taken... But just to put this out there for those who won't speak up on it Regardless of if the move/transfer has been seen by a few on here the point of this forum is to SHARE information with each other So for those select few who choose to be anal about posts on here It's not the serious at all... This is just a PSA to ALL From the Bus Fans to actual MTA employees on here chill out its not that serious we ALL share a common hobby here and that should be what's important at the end of the day in my own opinion I'm just sayin

8431 on Q3 right now JFK bound

8429 seen on Q3 earlier

Well I have a couple of ideas for Queens.... With the Rebuild of Jamaica Depot I could see Baisley Park becoming a Queens South All express depot (x63 x64 QM21) With your lay ups of regular buses here and there... Q111 Q112 Q113/114 would go to Jamaica Q110 would go to Queens Village Q64 goes back to CP JFK Depot would remain but they would lose a couple of routes... Q7 and Q8 to Spring Creek Jamaica would also give up the Q42 to QV

Did some fanning of Queens Village routes yesterday on the look out for 8400s and I couldn't find any yet... Guessing my timing was off But I did run into a bunch of Jamaica 8400s tho They were out in full force yesterday evening rush hour

I saw a 9400 at JFK Depot last night on the apron 947x to be exact

So this is NOW the current order listing... With the 23 originally going to QV Instead of JA

Actually they was... They were supposed to also take QVs order... But I'm seeing that they changed the order again back to what it was originally

So the LFS order was changed again ? Jamaica isn't getting 130+ New Novas anymore with rumors that 8480s have been seen in QV

So Jamaica now has 8400-8426 ? With a freeze on the rest of the 8100s coming ?

I saw last night on Stuphin and Archer the SBS Fare Collection Machines are in the Bus Stops.... So SBS is coming to the Q44

Doubt that will happen.... 4600s look like they are going over to CS from JA... As more LFS come in and they retire more 96 Novas

I would like to assume that the recent transfers from UP would actually be the first 98's to go (9400's)
