  1. There’s no need to attack him. He was just giving other people a warning since people tend to do anything just to go see a bus. So please keep your words to yourself and don’t get butt hurt.
  2. Thanks for your explanation it definitely had to be said.
  3. Actually it is the Nova LFS hybrid. Here’s the link
  4. Adding to what Calvin said does Manhattanville also apply to this? Now I know it’s 100% Orion VII right now but if DOB wanted they can go for LFS and New Flyer type of split can they?
  5. Since when did that happen? Last time I heard it was out of East New York Depot
  6. Ok I don’t know if East New York depot lost the M99 but 4115 is running right now to East New York
  7. 4269 out of Manhattanville today had some engine issues. According to what I heard the engine got hot and the fire suppression system went off on its own.
  8. Yea those run numbers have been weird today cause usually I see mostly Manhattanvilles buses with 200s, 100s or even double or single digit run numbers. However while I was out today I saw that most routes had 500s, 400s or 300s. Does that mean they added more runs to those routes?
  9. What do the numbers infront of buses mean? Not the destination sign. I’m speaking about the numbers in the corner
  10. 6695 was never retired. I saw it run a couple times throughout these 2 weeks. The only bus that I believe is retired is 6712 which I as you ask why?
  11. Yea I saw that. I thought it was recent so I decided to post so sorry
  12. 3902 MCH to Manhattanville with Manhattanville decals
  13. Best Depots Manhattanville- When it comes to service they don't play and actually manage to come on time and have things running smoothly. Sometimes it does have to deal with the traffic in midtown and harlem river drive. Mother Clara Hale- Has good routes. Needs a bit of diversity when it comes to routes. East New York- Are the king of Brooklyn in my opinion and the routes are great to ride on. Worst Depots MJQ- Slowest routes in Manhattan, routes are mostly crosstown and select, and barely arrive on time. Kingsbridge- Dirty buses enough said Gun Hill- Dirty buses plus buses are always bunched up
  14. This is my opinion and please feel free in telling me your opinions as well. I believe the M125 should go to Manhattanville without giving up anything. It has come to a point where they either have Manhattanville store more buses or suffer some consequences on having buses deadhead to the terminal whether it be KB or WF and have problems with keeping the schedule. In addition I don't know why it has become a problem for Manhattanville to hold more buses it has happened before that Manhattanville has reached up to 289 buses at some point why can't it happen now
  15. I don't think Hale can handle the M125 due to the limit of buses hale can have unless they get rid of one route and give it to another depot. As far as I see it Manhattanville should makes sense since for starters Manhattanville depot is not that far from the first stop of the M125 going to the Bronx so I believe if the mta is smart they would choose that option.
  16. Ok some kids just pulled the emergency brakes on 6240 for no reason and now the Q53 is stranded out here
  17. Interesting.... I wonder if they are going to build another depot for Manhattanville replacement. I know for a fact Quill, Tuskegee and Mother Clara Hale can't handle Manhattanville's routes
  18. I don't know where you heard about this but Manhattanville Depot isn't closing anytime soon. It's confirmed that the MTA wouldn't move Manhattanville at all. In addition renovations for Manhattanville Depot already started so I don't know why they would accept to buy the land now especially when the MTA knows it just wasted money for facade fixing and now trying to convert Manhattanville into an all green depot
