  1. 4951 and 4959 are currently on the M23 and M34A. I'll bet the above were only CMF moves...
  2. Spotted 9200 at the Kawasaki plant at Yonkers earlier today. I also saw a few solo M9 cars sitting around... they're so new, they don't even have the blue and yellow stripes yet.
  3. 9607 is being loaned to Kingsbridge from Manhantanville, and has been there since Monday. It ran on the Bx1 on the 11th and is running on the Bx13 today.
  4. It's had those signs since at least June 2021 fyi On another note, #8964 entered service on the Q112 earlier today. Excited to see more of those buses on the MTA Bus routes.
  5. Just to update this info, 4952 and 4957 are back at KB, and both buses were on the M100 today. Apparently the charger at KB had issues, so they went back over the weekend to recharge at Quill.
  6. #7470 is in service at ECH (it ran on the Bx23 today) and it'll be there for training until the newer XD40s arrive. Here's video proof:
  7. So apparently #4957 made a round trip on the M100 this morning... Not sure if it's indicative of anything, but there's a chance those XE60s could run on more KB routes. There's also a chance that both buses could've been sent back to Quill... I guess we'll see what happens.
  8. Most likely the Uptown / Broad Street bound track.
  9. They've been running on the Q110 occasionally since BP got them in 2016. Not every day, but mainly during the rush hours. They tend to also show up on the Q64, though that happens more frequently than the Q110 runs.
  10. The last few buses from the Prevost order were delivered a while ago. The buses mentioned were all in service today.
  11. 9597 and 9424 are also back at MHV, both on the M4 and M11. No more XDE40s at Kingsbridge.
  12. Structural work between Kingsbridge and BPB. Instead of working on it when the line was shut down last year and over the weekends, they decided to close the express track again 🙄 Feels like we haven't had express service up here in ages... they wrapped up the last project nearly a month ago, it's crazy...
  13. That's comparing apples to oranges. With the supplementing the , the affected area was between Manhattan and Brooklyn (namely Brooklyn Bridge and Atlantic Avenue). It makes sense in that case to send a between those two stops, as folks can transfer to the to connect between those two stops. With the suspension, the affected area is within Brooklyn, between Church Avenue and West 8th Street. The is either within walking distance or a quick bus ride away from most stops in that section, so it makes sense to redirect them there. Running it local allows for a connection at 4th - 9th, which means that those customers between Church Avenue and West 8th now have easier access to stops in Park Slope and Gowanus, rather than having to backtrack to Downtown Brooklyn or further north just to go back down. Extending the and down to 9th Avenue does nothing for those folks, because they don't need a connection from Manhattan to Brooklyn. They need service within Brooklyn. It would really only work if those trains ran further south, which isn't feasible given the current crew shortage.
  14. If it's a CPTDB issue, mention it on CPTDB. They have a page on their forums for the MTA, which they use to update those wiki sites. They pull some of their info from here, but this forum ain't the place to fix their roster 🤷‍♂️
  15. Twitter is going off on the schedule changes, it's honestly hilarious. I've been noticing during the rush, there can be upwards of up to 100 people IN EACH CAR of a train going to Penn Station or Atlantic Terminal. However someone posted a pic of just 5 people in one car of a train to Grand Central in the morning. I know that full service just started two days ago, but the disparity is astonishing.
  16. I saw it with my own two eyes earlier today running up Madison in service.
  17. Some of them do, a few still have Jamaica stickers. Most of the ones I saw had Gun Hill stickers on them
