    How are run boxes on MTA Buses (either or, doesn't matter which division) controlled? Is it via a small panel on the driver console, or at the box with dials & knobs (or something else)?

      Dials and knobs or for the majority of buses. For the 2014-16 Prevosts, its controlled like the electronic signage

    There are so many detailed rosters of the MTA, but none of retired buses.

      There's one on the forums of scrapped buses: http://www.nyctransitforums.com/forums/topic/47568-mta-bus-operations-scrapped-equipment-list/page-1

       

      Unless you mean one with all the retired buses throughout the fleet history. There's one on Wikipedia right here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retired_MTA_Regional_Bus_Operations_bus_fleet

    I wonder if it's difficult driving an MCI in NYC

      Like my uncle used to say when driving an MCI: Don't start your left or right turns until you get the nose of the bus on the second lane of the street you're turning on. He included parking lanes for the purpose of this discussion.

      Once you get past the turns and you don't go where you shouldn't, it's not too hard driving an MCI in the city.

      It's not hard. You just have to be very conscious of what's around your bus, especially through your turns.

    As of today, what Orion Vs are still in service?

    Did a lot this past year, life-wise...last year around this time, I was a scrub going to the scrubby run-down (but somewhat new) Wal-Mart...now grown folk throw money at me for buses (If you knew who I was, you'd know exactly what I was talking about), and I take HD pics.

    Next question: Does anyone know of a video of a 2nd Gen LFS with a Cummins ISL And Allison B-400R?
