  1. He may be right. I would just prefer politeness. However, I will wait for info to be posted before asking.
  2. Heres an idea. Dont act like an obnoxious a**hole. If you dont know something, obviously that isnt an issue but you can always say that in a nice way that doesnt piss people off.
  3. Didnt you say that Quill already got Buses from castleton today?
  4. From what I heard they are thinking 6-10. However, the uncertainty is whether we will get more not less than that. If it moves slightly offshore, over a foot would be possible.
  5. I heard a few have been transferred already but that may not be the case. What is the MTAs current plan for grounding artics over monday and tuesday?
  6. Whats happening in terms snow loans with the upcoming storm. I heard at least 15 Castleton buses have been sent to Quill already. Any other updates regarding this?
  7. What time are the artics expected to be fully replaced by standards?
  8. I was asking about 8516 not 8419. I wonder why no LFSs from QV as well as Hybrids for KB.
  9. Well all others are Jamaica and 8516 is QV. Other sources say 8416. And looking at the order it appears to be a typo. From where? Next Gens or OGs?
  10. Did they ever repaint 8005 and 8017? Any more snow loan updates?
  11. While I am not familiar with the Rt 9 Exp situation, I have heard that NJ Gov Murphy plans to increase the gas tax to help find NJT. While there has been some minimal cuts to rail, PTC has been cited as the reason but I am doubtful that is really why. However, those cuts were minimal and are not nearly as disasterous as the proposed MTA ones. I am not led to believe more is to come at NJT. Increasing fares and cutting service will worsen the problem. With so many people out of work, people may be struggling to afford the fare and thus ride for free. Upping the cost will only increase the problem I will agree that harping on former presidents is useless but that doesn’t clear them of past failures. Donald trump because he is pretty much a manchild decided that he wasnt going to bail out New York because we hurt his feelings. This clown has proven that he is unable to manage anything let alone run a country.
  12. The issue here is that the MTA board is completely irresponsible. These are rich idiots who probably have never rode a subway or bus but they get to choose the fate for people who rely on transit. There has been grotesque incompetance at the MTA for years now. They are one of the only transit agencies to regularly raise the fares with nothing to show for it. Now Pat I dont care Foye wants to cripple the service and make you pay more the remants of it. NJT is not cutting service or raising fares and they have a similar budget issue. Its possible to avert this but the state isnt doing a damn thing to help while Pat Foye claims theres no other option. Quite shameful if you ask me.
  13. Are the R179s back on the 8 Av Line yet? How much longer to catch the R160s on the ?
  14. Why will they need to be burn tested again?
  15. NTTs are preferred over the R32s because of the half cab issue. If they have one available why not use it.
  16. Dont get too ahead of yourself. They will probably be reliable enough where they can run without having to be constantly sidelined but I dont think they will be the best of the B division.
  17. I heard the idea of making the 480 feet, which would mean the 8 car R179s from the 207 will be sent to CI. Then the would share 10 car R179s and R211s.
