  1. 4446, 4449 FP to MV 4437, 4438, 4522, 4530, 4558, 4559, 4562, 4563, 4565 GA to MV Please Note: ALL NovaBus LFS HEVs are Out of Service due to a rear door opening issue on a Manhattanville HEV. Kingsbridge’s HEVs are OOS for a different issue. This results in many NG moves and loans.
  2. 9644/48/54/56/60 (KB) are at Zerega rn, anyone knows why?
  3. ... I was just saying my take on this subject but thanks.
  4. Literally what I said with the R179s, and R211s at Pitkin... and besides 8th Avenue is already prepared for CBTC starting from 59th Street..
  5. For what? QBL doesn't need no base order of any fleet right now.
  6. Honestly, QBL already has over 1,000 R160s so they do not need no base order for any fleet right now. Pitkin should receive the Base Order for the R211s because Fulton Street still has more than half of the R46 fleet, and though they are the best performing ones, they still need to be replaced as well, or displaced in this case. Though the R179s are there to back up the R46s, the R32s are on their deathbed right now and are not in up top shape to run service completely, or mostly underground on the and . Coney Island can receive these R46s from Pitkin, and retire the worst performing 46s, and continue from there. They can always have Jamaica 160s for swings on the and . Those R46s can displace all the R68s/R68As from the and and save those 350+ cars for the and in order to back up the R46s, and R160s to limit service on them too, by putting them on a route that is not too lengthy, and that is not a 24/7 one as well. This is why I agree with you because it's true, the MTA just wasted their damn time and whoever is behind subway operations, they don't have common sense at all.w It is not possible now but it is possible, in the coming years, if the base order goes to Pitkin, we can go back to square one. All NYCT base order R211As go to Pitkin for and possibly service. The 20 R211Ts could also possibly see service at Pitkin, or Jamaica. Send the displaced R46s to Coney Island for and service. Have the R68/As run mainly on the and lines to retire the R46s, or **most** of them. If there are any extras, have swing R160s additionally make up and service. My take, carry on.
  7. Hello all, this is the official interior font of the R211A/T, https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/1973817/r211a-t-interior-signage enjoy it! And it includes the interior bullet as well.
  8. I wonder which door chime they would use, either the R142/A/179 version, or the R143/160/188 version
  9. I’m upset the actual TS announcer isn’t used by only Kathleen..
  10. That would be true if the R32s were still in service.
  11. I don’t think they would use the R32 numbers yet, as they are still on property.
  12. I think that's the set I saw coming out of Jerome Yard today, it was definitely a R62A, and a 240th Street Set at that, but I thought it was for service, but it did go on the express track immediately.
  13. I wonder what the second option order numbers would be. I’m thinking they would use 2925-3009. 75 cars. Even though the amount of cars is going to be alot more than 75, I think those number should be used for the R211S’
  14. There was a huge delay on the because of a breakdown at Fort Hamilton Pkwy.
  15. Please, it’s not a very long route. What’s a really long route is coming all the way from Far Rockaway, via Local.
