Are you sure? Cuz 5991 was unwrapped for local service and plus TU does not have a share of the SBS. That’s all Quill. Although TU has a few trips on the 14
IMO: TU doesn’t need to be doing the 14A&D. That should all be for Quill since they want to take every bus from the city. Sheesh those buses should of went to Quill and not TU
There’s no way in 20 years that the whole fleet is going to be electric. Miss me with the bulls*it.
As long as you have Westchester, Nassau, Suffolk politicians trying to tell the city what to do there’s no way to carry our ambitions on a cleaner bus system and . In plain English politics need to stay off the and let them do the work they need to do.

Sir: Please read the above statement in bold. The Department of buses is running this. The notion of buses being delivered in consecutive numbers is gone. Each depot will get about 25-30 buses in consecutive order than the rest is mixed.
Only reason I thought about was only b/c since the 55 is via Myrtle in both directions why not extend to Bushwick-Bed Stuy. However, I totally forgot about that dirty area of Myrtle-Broadway & Stockholm Street. Park Avenue is not a proper layover area.
As for the Jamaica portion you may be right. Those Ridgewood-Glendale-Kew Gardens folks don’t necessarily need Jamaica service. Although the route is about 45 mins long and has pretty frequent service. Just wanted to see the consensus on an extension. I don’t have anything against the current layover on Hillside & Jamaica-117th which is pretty near the 121 .
I like the Jamaica-Van Wyck idea since the buses would terminate on Metro Avenue. However, nothing pass that.
Did 4407, 4421 make the trip to FP?
Also, why is FP getting more NG’s. Shouldn’t they be getting more XD40’s since their allotment is 65. I believe they have 61.
That’s a copy good sir. I’ll say this. I haven’t noticed any movement as of late with the XD’s with exception of the 2 that went to FB last week.
Is there a start date for the SBS14+?
.... Damm that’s breaking news to me. Just hoping that’s not true in regards to Flatbush. They already suffered enough. However, we shouldn’t take these things seriously as things change everyday with the
That’s a copy. I read an earlier report that they went to MCH/146. Did anything else pop in from Yukon or KB transferring to MHV since your last report? Also, be on the lookout for possible Gun Hill buses too.
This while M14SBS thing is out of proportion. There was no need in my honest opinion to have a 14SBS. All they had to do was add more service on the trains. Kept the shuttle buses only for nights, weekends and late rush hours
Ha. I really don’t care for it at this point. The whole is a complete mess at this point. Late orders and the Department of buses being a dysfunctional bunch. Add all of that it all equals disaster.
