21242 Suburban Transit to Wayne

21234 at Wayne. This one was idled I believe.

9001 Fairview to Wayne. 9027 might follow behind.

9009 and 9011 are at Wayne Speaking of Market Street, I did hear they want to get their original PABT routes back in the near future. And I believe Market cant hold 45fts without modifications.

I never understood the purpose of MCIs at Fairview tbh. Most their lines are mostly on local streets, and not really for highway express. Another reason why I don't get an MCI being on the 126 tbh (unless its to fill more seats for the demand). It does keep their mileage down though I believe. Also 21236, 21237, and 21238 are all at Wayne. Time to catch the remaining CLs.

Also 3751 is active. However I think someone mentioned 3746 as retired before.

So how long do these OGs still got? By end of March? And which ones still remain?

9004, 9021, 9023 Fairview to Wayne

21277, 21278, 21279, 21280, 21281, 21296, 21297 all are at Fairview apparently

Orange, Hilton and Ironbound. Mostly Orange though.

how many more Decamp Units still need to be reactivated?

21199, 21203, 21205, 21221, 21229 all repainted in NJT colors

Another rumor, Big Tree will likely help the 24 with operators training on the route. Wouldn't be surprised if they do, especially with the evergrowing 24 ridership.

6485 is at Greenville. On Route 6 today. Final former A&C Bus Allocations: Big Tree: 5920, 6464-6465, 6478, 6483 Egg Harbor: 5923 Fairview: 6467 Greenville: 6477, 6484-6485 Hilton: 6466, 6469 Ironbound: 5760, 5921, 6473, 6479, 6482, 6487 Market Street: 6468, 6475, 6480, 6486 Meadowlands: 5922, 6463, 6470-6472, 6476, 6481, 6488 Newton Avenue: 5759, 6474 Retired: 5757, 5919 (now training out of CMF)

There's more Rockland Coaches MCIs awaiting transfer back to NJT. Seems these are at CMF this time. I made out 21209 and 21234 but there are 15 total units at CMF. Not sure the other units.

How long do you guys think the OGs have? I wanna hit up Queens when the weather gets warmer. But judging by how fast the Novas and XD40s are coming in I'm judging they won't last until May. And if I were to hit up the OGs what are the best spots to catch them?

so all being retired?

Hearing a rumor that NFI has built five new NJT artics. They're probably going to be delivered to NJT soon. Also another rumor is that some of the 6500s from Coach USA are supposedly going to Hilton and Orange. All of this information are just rumors so take this all with a grain of salt.

5222 is confirmed retired. 5202 and 5281 are still active and I saw 5244 a few days ago. Not sure about 9030 though.

Loads of Coach USA units from ONE Bus and Rockland Coaches have been spotted at Meadowlands overflow lot. These are the units spotted there: 6500, 6501, 6503, 6504, 6506, 6507, 6508, 6509, 6513, 6515, 6518, 6520, 6521, 6522, 6523, 6524, 6531, 6533, 6536, 6538, 6539, 6540, 6541, 6542, 6543, 6546, 6549 all from ONE Bus 21198, 21199, 21202, 21203, 21207, 21210, 21211, 21216, 21217, 21221, 21228, 21233, 21234, 21238, 21239, 21240, 21241 all from Rockland Coaches (none have license plates) All of these buses will be returning to NJT. But unsure when they will start being transferred over to CMF for work.

7129, 7134, 7155, 9013, 9052, 9053 all retired from Wayne

6484 is at Greenville. Heard it ran the 87 earlier. Heard 6504, 6518, 6538, 6542, 6549 are at the Meadowlands storage lot. Looks like those will be next in line to return to NJT.

7142, 7159 retired from Wayne.
