It will be a while before Express service returns to normal as the express would be running in one direction once the middle track is used for Trains when the renovations begin at the 52nd and 69th Street stations.

NJ Transit is giving some of their current fleet a retro look. Not sure how long it will last, but it's something to be on the lookout for.
I will have to agree with dispatching. A lot of their services are inconsistent, with gaps in service and buses leaving in bunches even when there isn't any traffic problems on the route.
For those that need confirmation on JFK Orions that are at Eastchester to be scrapped: 3508, 3511, 3531, 3568, 3600, 3638, 3644, 3654, 3663 are in the lot.
The link is no good on phones at times, so here's a link to another news site about it: https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/truckmaker-volvo-buy-proterras-battery-business-210-mln-2023-11-10/
At first I thought it was due to the pandemic, but the last time the buses were out on the 42 was in 2018. I forgot the reason why it was axed so I hope someone that does know can answer the question.
That would have been rough with the other routes being sent over to 86th (M1, 2, 3, 4, 96, 101, 102, 106, and 116).
It will be interesting to see the 60 make the stops in The Bronx. It has 2 stops along the detour at Gerard Ave and on Grand Concourse.
I’m not sure it’s always necessary to post whenever a bus is sent to Zerega. It doesn’t change where the bus is assigned to, just where the bus is at physically. Same with loan moves that happen daily at Stengel and Tuskegee.
