Meanwhile Pembina's are still coming along at a snail's pace...
And it's going to be even slower as Pembina is going to build the 30 Academy units. MCI units 105169-105198.

FYI #19104, #19120-19127 all have the Cummins X12 engine, not the weak ISX12.
19104 and 19119-19127. The idea behind those (and they were all test buses) was that almost every garage that was scheduled to get cruisers would get two of the 2019 units with the X12 engine. Wayne, Ironbound, Howell, Meadowlands, and Newton Ave. I guess Washington Twp. was left out of that batch as they already had all the buses they needed. And Oradell wasn't even supposed to get new buses. That way, when the 20000's came out exclusively using the X12 engine (ISX engines were discontinued), the garages were ready to support them. (For the record, 17185 was the first bus built with the X12 for NJT, although the VIN says it has an ISX-12.)

Back to the 22000 series.... 22018 22087 and 22088 inspected today. The Winnipeg flight of buses (22056-22088) is done for NJT, all those VINs are now confirmed (and in numerical order, too). I don't know who's building the Academy buses at this point; there are supposed to be 30.

I looked at the Google Map of the lot and those buses weren't even parked like that. I saw the dozen or so DesignLine buses, and that one RTS that's being saved for some odd reason, and a whole bunch of others. 7805 was there but in amongst some other buses.
I don't want to speculate on why these seven buses but bear in mind that they've all been retired for years and are all about 20 years old..
