21338 was inspected Thursday and is at CMF.

22001 and 22003 are at CMF, inspected.. and of course I have found the VINs.

22001 - 1M8D2W910NP140708

22003 - 1M8D2W919NP140710

As you can see they are Pembina builds and I found all 55 of the VINs for those 55 buses, 22001-22055. The only mystery now remains the last 30 buses of the order.

Wonder why none of the earlier 22000s have been delivered yet. Some of them (22001 & 22007) have already been built. These are Pembina units though - maybe there's a holdup at the Pembina factory or something? Would also explain why 21338 still isn't here.

22001 is at CMF so it's been inspected. I don't have a VIN for this unit.

I spotted 18023 on the Garden State Parkway yesterday so I am assuming it was on its way down to Washington Township after being repaired from its accident back in October. Bus will need to be re-inspected before going back into service.

22065, 22067 and 22069 now at Fairview. At least 22065 in revenue (Rt 321). 22076-22078 passed inspection yesterday.

22057, 22058, 22060 active at Fairview.

22065-22067 inspected today at ADD.

21228 inspected today at Coach USA Paramus. Nine buses left to go for this series.

Neglected to mention that 22057, 22063 and 22064 were all inspected yesterday and the VINs are confirmed on all three (as always, Ron Archer 2nd going the extra mile & putting bus numbers on the inspection reports). 22001 still hanging out up in Pembina.

We still also have about 15 of the 2021 cruisers for Rockland still needing inspections.

22058 (I think) was inspected on Friday. Should be at CMF by now.

Four buses at ADD now. 21059 and 21069 among them.

22007 is tracking in Pembina.

Wait Fairview???????? Thought I heard Wayne were suppose to get some.

They could still. Thinking that the 22056-22088 are going to be Fairview and then 22001-22055 for Wayne.

22056 and 22062 are active as of today out of Fairview.

22001 tracking in Pembina last Friday.

Remember 17065? It got inspected today and has new plates (OYB7406). Going to be running out of Newton Avenue.

Meanwhile the Rockland Coaches 21000's all have their plates. Just need fleet numbers for some of them.

Ok, here's what's been inspected so far from Rockland. Unit number constitutes last 5 digits of VIN.

21202 - Unit 16250 - AX-945N
21208 - Unit 16262 - AX-957N
21209 - Unit 16252 - AX-947N
21212? - Unit 16255 - AX-950N
21215 - Unit 16264 - AX-959N
21217 - Unit 16268 - AX-963N
21218 - Unit 16260 - AX-955N
21223 - Unit 16266 - AX-961N

More Rockland Coaches inspections: 21215, 21217 and 21218. They're getting inspected with their plates on and the pattern so far seems to be that the license plates are in lockstep with the VINs.

From the official website:

NJT will suspend all bus, River Line and Access Link services at the start of the service day on Saturday, 1/29 due to severe winter weather. Service is anticipated to resume later in the day as soon as it is safe to do so. Rail service, Newark Light Rail and Hudson-Bergen Light Rail will remain on regular weekend schedules for as long as conditions allow. Cross-honoring will be in effect for rail, light rail, NJT bus and private carriers.

I've read that as of today all of Rockland Coaches' operations have moved to Community Coach. No buses there any more.

Surprise! Rockland Coaches 2021 buses starting to go on line now. Both of these buses were inspected today.

21208 (AX-957N) - MP016262
21223 (AX-961N) - MW016266

Both buses previously had fleet numbers confirmed at their initial inspections.

22056 delivered

The VIN is 1M8D2W910NW104830. I found VINs for the next 32 vehicles, which takes us to bus 22088 - the last bus in the order to be assigned to NJT. So I am thinking this block of 22056-22088 is destined for one NJT garage. This bus BTW is the 4000th bus built by MCI for NJ Transit.

Just taking a guess on its whereabouts. So if it's not at CMF, and not at ADD, where would it be?

Might still be in Pembina, where that coach was assembled.

Probably at CMF

Can't be at CMF until it's inspected. Only record on the vehicle is NJT taking title to it.

21366 is at Meadowlands. 21367 is at Oradell. 21338 still at large.

I think the option buses are on the way.

15GGD3017M31996965 - plate B/E 8645
15GGD3019M31996966 - plate B/E 8643

anyone know for sure?
 

21359 21363 and 21364 have reported to Oradell.
