Welcome home 4527. 

Interesting  so FP pushes out there NG which is what I wanted for years then boom they end up getting more again 🙄 ugh that's the DOB for you....

Off topic but is it possible  for ENY to convert  the B15 to a full X equipment  route I been noticing lots of XD40s on the line coming back and not one OG popin out on it. Like for Example  I see tons of them popin up on the B15 at mother Gaston then get on My B35 and check the tracker and check to see what's on the route but surprisingly it was nuthing but all XD40s and its rn too lol Not one OG on the B15.

Looks like 7814 is transferred  to pond and is doing a run on the B91 rn

It's not doing an m72 run it's still tracking out there from when it broke down last night

Ahhh yes it it makes sense now thanks.

Ummmm ima let ya know rn but 5240 is doing a run on the M72 rn as we speak...

Does anyone know if 7817 is done cause A person mention 7815 being scraped and I saw it in the back of the depo earlier sitting there same with 7817 too.

RTS 5227 is supposed to be used for a special event on Monday at 2 Broadway.

At least 5249 is preserved

It's tough since AFAIK 5171 was the last one to carry passengers (B41) but 5240 was out till this morning (albeit road called along freedom place).

 

actually: did 5240 go back into service this morning???

No  it didnt make it sadly

5221 en route to scrap from Quill (under its own power). All others on hold.

One RTS (5240) was out of Quill this morning.

Edit: posted same time. I think that bus just stayed out over night after breaking down on the M72, but maybe it ran.

Very unhappy about this whole thing. These buses should not have been sidelined in working service, and shame for a great era to end because of Daily News politics. Buses should be scrapped as necessary, not fleets at a time. 

Its funny cause Quill ranned the last ones on the M57 and M66 and M72 yesterday  I rode 5241 on M66 and man did it rode off good they stayed out all day too. Then I go to downtown Brooklyn  to see 5174 alive and running on the B41 and then the other units were off tracker... me and my freind caught 5171 doing a last en run on the B41 then I didnt see it after that...  I swear the mTa messed up the plan in the long run they said dead line by May 10th not May 1st...  Now You got depo's struggling with stortage and what not it pains me to see and know that and the MTA just screwed up everything  the orders are messed up and they wasnt prepared  right smh.

Are the O7 CNGs all done? The remaining RTS buses, once they pull in (only 5171 is still out), may be completely done as well.

It was  announced  by Trevor that 5240 was the last one to do service  yesterday but didnt make it last night.... so all of the rtses are pulled oos including Ulmer

7818 is dead (not scrapped, but hasn't ran in close to a month). 7816 is currently doing swing duty at southern and tremont (as usual), 7817 isn't out rn but it runs .

for what it's worth, they usually put an Orion on swing duty at southern and tremont so the number of orions tracking doesn't always equal the number of orions out.

7816 did some runs Saturday and sunday but for today not really. 7818 ran on the 36 last last week and the other day I seen it up in Wfs. 7817 is still holding on and caught it last friday too and rode 7819 on the 36 which ofc 17 and 19 did runs on that route on that friday too. 7815 is still active too but I always see up at west farms as a swing. And not to mention 7818 isnt trackable you have to hunt it down the old fashion way that's what I did with my freind and we saw it as a swing up at west farms.

Bro what are you talking about? Flatbush Local riders deserve new buses as much as everybody else in this city and the fact that this depot was passed up for new local buses is just totally unfair. Why do more affluent neighborhoods and Depots get new local buses while the less rich and affluent Flatbush Depot doesn’t? It’s total discrimination.

 

What bus lines do you live by and/or take on a daily basis, and what Depots are they dispatched out of? If they’re not from Flatbush, then it’s easy for you to tell FB folks to cool down. Until FB has a newer fleet of new scheme XD40s and XDE40s for local service, the I will still believe that there is something against FB.

Again as I stated.... Just because  your a FB Daily Rider or anything else to FB  means nuthing...  in this situation  rn with them needing buses and just because  you think FB riders need more buses then your wrong... you keep sayingthat you still dont understand  the process of what the mTA is doing as I keep saying and everyone else your not getting it how much buses you need them to get there not like WFs where they need a danm bus to fill in all the time it dosent work that way. The local riders have something to ride it's just local buses that dont have USB chargers or Wifi so what... when the time comes for them to push there XD40s from the B46 sbs to local routes then the local riders can enjoy them self until then that's how its gonna be...

7251 GA➡️FP With Ga decals.

I checked but it seems that it is still at Grand and is doing a run on the Q58

What other do you expect  them to Get.... come on now as people said hundreds of time... FB Rtses are Retiring the process is for Brooklyn to get more Next Gens from Bronx and for that FB is one of them the more Next gens the more rtses can get pushed out from the depo leaving them to have less of a stortage.... and FB on the other hand dosent need any more XD40s as they are done in the orders the easiest way for them to push them to local scheme for there routes is for the B46 to use the XD60s that they have which should happen soon but just not right now... and not to mention again they are done in the XD60 list the easiest way to look at this is MJQ will have to push the rest of XD60s to FB for them to push the rest of the nova bus lfsas look at it that way .Besides the Mta ain't  letting FB touch any other fleet in the system so I'm sure you should know that by now.... So with that said your just gonna have to deal with them getting more next gens because it does make total sense.

Which means more 72xx’s for Ulmer Park and possibly some OG’s to East New York. 

Hmmm so tell me if FP getting more new X equipment.... how will this work out for FP if they push out there 7200s to Ulmer and then you got them still pushing it buses at that I'm sure they would have to get something else out if this besides more new X equipment.... I'm pretty sure that they would be really short but idk how this will work out for that depo but hey it is what is lol. Anyone feel free to give ya comments on my Stupid statement ya can even correct me on it.

3230 Far Rock. to Spring Creek

7255, 7256, 7257 Fresh Pond to Ulmer Park

Will these be there permanently because I get that ulmer losing Rtses and that they need fill in but that kinda kills the vibe for FP plus FP dosent get nothing out of it So I'm confused on this will work out and I'm guessing fP will be short as well once more hybrids get pushed out and stuff

Any news on the D60s are the 5 units retired as of tonight?

118 is doing a nice run on the Bx39

Ok so KB is the last Remaining Depo to have 11 left.

I could say the B60 was trash when Grand had it was never on time and always made a problem for canarsie... but it's at FP and since it's my main home route and me taking it if the B82 dosent come or B6 the B60 will pop up before anyone of those two routes I can truly say that there would be 3 buses back to back which made me wonder how and which shows me the B60 did somewhat got better with time schedule  when it's with FP but when it was with Grand it did hella bad I cant say to much when it was at ENY either but from the looks of it the B60 slightly  got better in my opinion....
