Those two Orion VIIs are on there for the same reason those 3 D60HFs are on there. In this case, they are there due to fire damage. I guess the MTA is deciding whether to repair them or can them.
What happened to #5656? Just noticed, Brooklyn only has about 500 RTS's left in service (501 to be exact). 5 to 6 years ago, we had over 800! Also, what will replace those last 9 Orion V CNGs at Spring Creek?
Here's a thought, what if Quill ends up taking #5323-5363? With them sending some 5800s to FB, that's what it seems like.
End of the 1996 Vs at long last?
Don't give me this garbage. The Feds are printing money that isn't backed by anything. No goal, no silver, nothing. Why do you think there's inflation now? Needless to say, 2013 is going to be one hell of a year.
We can't really confirm that #3741 is scrap. They could repair it like #1808. Let's just wait and see.
Actually, #6337 also caught fire and was retired before #6290.What happened to #6232, #6250, and #6339?
What's the hold up with the R179s? We been talking about this order for about 5 years atleast. I thought they where coming next year (2014). As for the R42s, assuming there is actually about 240 or so R32s left, I agree that the R42s can bite the dust any day now. So we should enjoy them while we still can.
