  1. The following buses does not have any screens: 5826, 5873 (TU) Tuskegee Airmen had received their first 5200-series LFSAs with ViaNova displays from West Farms, 5264-5265.
  2. Some images are out of order. I apologize for that. Imgur was acting crazy.
  3. Disregard. I saw the comment on it earlier in February.
  4. It would be interesting if they can spec the MTA Bus LFSes with Allisons.
  5. I thought Eastchester would be getting 25 electrics. It would make sense for JFK/FR to get 60 LFSes, not 40. Unless the assignment or plan was changed.
  6. The oldest ones are at College Point (3000-3004, and 3007). They are 18 years old.
  7. I noticed, although not as much when I came back to Manhattan.
  8. I thought there was snow as well. I guess the MTA prepped for the storm that day, but it wasn't that. Also, I saw some LFS HEVs running on the BX15.
  9. I'm glad as well. I am now focusing on providing more pictures since I got a new phone to take photos with.
  10. We have to wait and see for this. If Gun Hill and Kingsbridge has Manhattanville's assigned LFS HEVs, and that they are waiting for their assigned units (9640-9664 and 9891-9910 respectively), then it will take a while for the MV assigned units to return back. This has to do with the accelerated progress of retiring, or transferring the NGs to MTA Bus. Otherwise, it may change later on.

  12. Just to note that it was last week that I attempted to ride on one of the 2018 or 2021 XDE40s with the Allison hybrid system. However, they seemed to be quite difficult to catch in my opinion. This was at Queens Plaza South where the B62 stop was at. However, Grand would mostly use the NGs and XD40s respectively on this route. I'm still going to try to find and ride one of the Allison XDE40s someday, because I heard that they are fun to catch.
  13. I didn't expect them to keep the covid P/R code on the 75xx's. I also figured that the sticker situation is rather a joke. Another unit that had this gag is 5869. That unit has a WF sticker as well. I don't know how many buses have the wrong stickers on them, but so far with 6193, that makes it 4 buses I counted that had different stickers, then the depot it is assigned to.
  14. Interesting. Because before retirement, 6700 had the Hudson Pier sticker.
  15. For some weird reason, 9612 has a Westside depot sticker on it.
  16. The following has screens: 7374 (CS) - Version 3 The following does not have any screens: 4571 (GA) 4682 (CS) 5892 (TU)
  17. Note that 6212 is probably the only unit in the 2018-19 order (6126-6233), to have 4ONE Gemini seating. The 2019-20 order (6234-6286) has American Seating Insight seating, which would become the current seat model for the MTA.
