Looks like 20849-20852 to Hilton from Fairview

Aside from 20852, the other units are still at Fairview.

Side note, 24002 has been delivered to Hilton.

Lol the mystery bus is finally delivered. There were some people a few months back claiming 9006 was here despite no one actually having photo proof. 

I'm thinking that way for 8968. I haven't seen any evidence of that bus being delivered.

Isn't that an XE-60?

The 2030’s is crazy it would be more than 20 years old by then. I would assume that they would die out b/w 2025-27 especially considering that the Orion V’s (besides the 32fters) are retiring or have been b/w 15-17 years. 

Being honest once those Nabi’s are gone it will be an end of an era for not just Bee-line’s Nabi’s as a whole, but buses of that interior. 
 

I’m not worried about how early the Nabi’s retire since there going 15yrs (in August). But what will retire them like if it’s another one of of those mother f**king New Flyers you can kiss 💋 Bee-lines diversity bye-bye. What I hope is that it’s something like a Gillig, Proterra, etc. 

 

But then your right those Nabi’s can stay here longer.

Pretty sure the mechanics would be relieved that they don't have to juggle with maintaining buses from different manufacturers.

Correct, it's still active for express service.

 

3470 was the scrapped unit for one of the 3400s at College Point. Last holiday season was the retirement. 

 

3466 wasn't in the system.

15 so one other 7100 didn't make it to Transit aside from 7109 and 7116.

They aren't adding that many trips, just a few trips here and there. If anything I wouldn't be surprised if they were used to retire the remaining 2005-06 MCI's on the property at MTA Bus. 

Nope. The 15 units they got are heading to Staten Island.

Except 7109, which was destroyed in a fire some years ago

Two were retired before Howell stopped using them (The other was 7116).

Interesting that they specifically say Herkimer along ENY. That's one of the outside parking lots, right?

Correct. It's the lot by the ENY LIRR underpass.

Is the MTA really short on commuter coaches? Or the MCI's are giving us lots of headaches?

A fleet expansion as they're going to beef up some express routes for congestion pricing.

Will they be placed in service or used for something completely different 

Should be obvious that they're for passenger service.

So the old 7100s from Howell were apparently sold to the  That's funny considering that those units were supposed to go to NYC 16 years ago.

I believe 22010 is either back at Oradell or is a loaner to Oradell. It's on the 166 now, and it was on the tracker as a 163 yesterday. It has the Oradell emblem on the side but IDK if that's old or recent. Can someone confirm?

IIRC, the bus was at Westwood beforehand.

MCI's 7112 and 7106 form NJT (Howell Garage) are at Zerega CMF awaiting a small pre-service overhaul. Supposed to get 15 overall for now

So they're getting the buses they rejected 16 years ago? That's funny.

some Fresh Pond loans at Gun Hill were in actual service on the routes that are Gun Hill

I don't think you read the thing I put at the end of the post.

The Bx90, Shuttle bus that's occurring just for this week due to track replacement on the Esplande has buses out of these depots: Manhattanville, Fresh Pond, Gun Hill, West Farms, Casey Stengel and MCH for now. 

 

All the OA depots helped out in this shuttle, plus a few TA depots like Gleason and QV. It's no different than the last shuttles that ran for the 5 line in the area.

8379, 8395; 9850 Kingsbridge to Manhattanville 

8188 Yukon to Caslteton 

The KB units were sent back.

Side note, the Xcelsiors on loan at Gun Hill are to supplement the Bx90 shuttle bus that is in service until next Monday.  Trains are suspended between Dyre Ave & E 180th St all week. Note that the loaned units are not restricted to the shuttle.

9622, 9624, and 9636 back at Tuskegee.

UPDATE: Flushing bound  platforms will be closed on May 6th until Q1 2025 😒 Crazy……. should be done in 6 months not another 11 month delay 

Pretty sure you and many others would have complained if this was a rush job instead.

3500 JFK to Gershow Recycling Corporation in Long Island 

4393 LaGuardia to Gershow Recycling Corporation in Long Island 

4168 JFK to Eastchester Scrap 

So why are people suddenly reporting scrap buses ending up in the recycling plant?

Also from the Southern Division, 19136 looks to be back at Newton Avenue. It is currently on the 409. It spent about a year down the 42 Freeway at Turnersville ( Washington Twp). 

Same goes for 19143, the other Newton unit that was loaned to Washington.

so is BP repairing 4052?

No idea. The accident was this morning so just wait a bit for someone with the actual info to come forward with it.
