Good point. I rely on Transsee and have seen a few buses not moving for long weeks despite no claims of retirement or being OOS. Then Transsee showed activity of these units, but it is often the case that the map Transsee show does not match the description. However, I am not aware of any other tool available to regular fanners not in any way affiliated with the MTA. It there anything else? I need a tool which retrieves information based on bus number, not a route or stop number.

There appears to be another unnamed website which can track the locations of buses that are not on a specific route.

3936 MJQ to Gun Hill. 

Turned out to be another glitch sadly 

As of now, Mitchell Field has #2000-2026 confirmed, with 2033 on the way. 

With 3999 being transferred to Fresh Pond (as per the latest post in the Deliveries, Moves and Transfers section), Fresh Pond now has every unit from 3983-3999 (minus 3989 of course)

I wonder how the Next Gens from 3960-4278, 4330-4702 are slowly dropping, meanwhile, the 3800-3959 batch is still running all the units in use.

The only exception is 3955, which only retired due to an accident.

That bus never moved from Eastchester.  3408 was the bus that was at Yonkers for a bit and that went back several months ago. 

Ah ok, thanks for the correction. 

I believe 3444 was at Yonkers quite a while ago. If not mentioned before, it is back at Eastchester.

MHV only has 1 on the base left if I stand correct: 6724

MCH has left: 6706, 6757, 6760-6761, 6765, 6770-6771, 776, 6778-6779, 6782-6783, 6785-6786, 6789 (16)

MQ:  6700, 6711, 6717, 6726, 6732-6733, 6735-6738, 6740, 6743-6747, 6750-6752  (20)

Has 6709 been retired from MHV? If not, they still have two OGs left.

According to a TTMG source, 117 hasn't been on the roster since June 2020! Hope they didn't scrap it...

As of August 5th, it was still at Eastchester.

That'd be one heck of a deadhead between Washington Heights and KB in the PM's...

It'd be similar to the Bx3/Bx13's deadheads to the depot.

Don't mean to go off topic, but what the heck is an M60 doing in Soundview?

Also, if the really wants to save on costs, I highly hope they revert to the old scheme. The new gold scheme costs somewhere between $9k-$11k for one.

Seems like it was a foreshadowing codebreak, as the bus was still out of Kingsbridge at the time.

So there's a "9863" tracking on the M2 on BusTime. Does anyone know what unit is really there on that route?

It could be 9763. If that is the case, that unit was recently delivered to Manhattanville.

Oh, so then I can imagine buses that have been all over the city having many stickers overlapping each other lmao. Now that you mention it, I think there was a NG from Yukon that was transferred to Manhattanville that still had a Castleton logo underneath... 😂

I think that was 4260. I saw it with a Manhattanville sticker in February 2020, then with a Castleton sticker in June 2020. 
 

Edit: I also recall D4500 2895 having portions of an Ulmer Park, a Meredith, and a Castleton sticker.
