Me: waits all day to hear about MTA electric bus delivery which includes the 60 XE40, LFSe+ and even the XHE40 on earth day The MTA on earth day:

There is literally no reason to assign posters just because someone posts something false. 1. Buses move in and out of retirement all the time 2. Mistakes happen 3. When you keep being told something isn't confirmed retired because of certain things it should be common sense it isn't And quite frankly imo there's no difference between a bus at Zerega or Eastchester besides the fact that one houses pending scrap and the other holds new or oos/training buses.

For clarification purposes, 4631-4655 are 2010 units built in 2009.

It's not a point about $$, it's a point about mismanagement. If yk you need to fix something, it needs to be planned in advance. See that bold part? That's exactly why they are in the predicament they are in. Ever since the Cuomo era, they been playing politics to get what they want. They acting more like a party that wants look good in order to run for reelection instead of an actual transit agency, and especially as of lately it's getting obvious to the public eye. It might not be their fault, but they far from anything not corrupt.

All these depots falling apart and they more worried about things like congestion pricing and catching people who don't pay. Not to say don't, but when your main focus is money and politics it adds up for sure. Don't even get me started on how they was about to try and charge marathon runners for going on the verazanno bridge and it was so bad even hochul had to overturn it. Ridiculous....

Speaking of new AEB, what ever happened to the LFSE+/Van hool test orders? It's not to sound impatient, but I thought they would have been delivered by now.

Report that to the MTA with an email or tag on Twitter. The more people do this the sooner the MTA realizes they can't be playing slick to try and get what they want. If it's not mentioned on the Queens Bus redesign group I'm part of, I'll definitely give it a mention.

Reread my previous posts.

Today is the first day where all FR routes have at least one LFS in service. This includes: Q11: 9037 Q21: 9022 Q22: 9028 Q35: 9029, 9068 Q41: 9052, 9063

They can take studies from the Brooklyn redesign and implement it by the time the Queens redesign is ready. Technically, the Brooklyn final plan needs to be ready before any implementations, but that doesn't mean they won't be implemented after the Queens redesign. Hearings still need to be held regardless of the borough, so there's plenty of time to announce changes if there needs to be any.

The only changes regarding Brooklyn routes is the service in Queens and changes that involves Queens routes, even if they touch Brooklyn. This includes: Splitting the B24 to the B53/Q68 Q24 from Bushwick to Broadway Junction being replaced by the B53 B32 discontinued and replaced by the B53/B62 B57 extension to Jackson Heights B62 extension to Astoria Unless the MTA makes an announcement or the final plan is updated, these changes will be in conjunction with the Queens redesign. Separate note, people forget how the M100 was changed despite not being a Bronx route. It'll be the same concept for the above routes.

It's been established that CP has a rotation of 4-5 NG units from LG, thus unnecessary to keep posting these loans

Slightly off topic, is there any update to the AEB coach units? Always thought these would (indirectly) replace the 08 CTs (later replaced by the 2026 prevost)

Fixed

Literally what we been saying all along, loans. It's the same situation as TU. Buses will be sent there for X days, then go back to their home depot, sometimes with a decal slapped onto it. Seems like CP will have around 4-5 units on rotation with LGA
