  1. 18001 is in Wayne. Coach #9051 is still operable as I've saw it a day or two ago
  2. That's a trend that's been happening on the #709. For some reason CUSA - Community has been having some no-shows on routes #707 and popular #709. I don't know about the other "Passaic" and "Bergen" county" routes.
  3. I'm quite sure those artics are going to replace the 2008 Nabi suburbans in Fairview, Meadowlands and possibly Hilton. I won't be surprised if Big Tree gets and additional amount since route 99 gets an artic or two every weekday and Ironbound in the future gets a few for runs on the 62 line..which they need badly
  4. I believe Market Street will get their PABT routes back as soon as the garage is finished with modifications. Garage has been in the works for about a year or so. The back of the garage is evidence. I'm sure that space being built is to allow for 45 foot cruisers to fit in the maintenance shop when going in for fixing and perhaps allow for larger bus lifts to lift the 45s. Before the modifications, Wayne's 45 foot MCIs as some of you have been at Market Street parked alongside with their D4000s and Nabis outside from time to time and overnight for mechanical repairs
  5. Gotta have a Cat engine Nabi suburban bus since they're ultra rare. Also, is this for the NJ Historic Bus Museum?
  6. They're sending those buses back to Wayne? I guess Fairview is priority number one before Wayne gets all the remaining 9000s and 7100s replaced and perhaps Meadowlands getting a few all white MCIs
  7. The end is near for Wayne and Fairview's remaining 9000 Cat engine cruisers and also Wayne's 7100 series Cats. I wonder if Howell still has them ex-MTA cruisers still running. I haven't been seeing them on tracker for a long minute
  8. I know this is off topic, but NJ Transit like many TAs across the country have played a part in Flxible's history. Flxible will be celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. Here's the article that was posted in Bus Ride magazine about it and information about the Flxible parade in the birth place of Londonville, OH. https://busride.com/flxible-converted-bus-centennial-summit-celebrating-the100th-birthday-of-the-original-flxible-bus/

  10. NJT can't screw this up can they?? You would think they have learned their lesson from the disaster of how they left 100s of fans stranded at the Meadowlands Station during that Super Bowl. It should be an "All hands on deck" with both shuttle bus and extra trains. Pay your workers overtime if need be. This time around, the whole word will be watching
  11. No surprise there. With Hilton having some runs of route 24, some driver(s) from that garage will take an artic on that line. Don't be surprised if you see more artics on that line once the new artics come in from New Flyer in a year or two
  12. Since some of those Wayne 7100 and 9000 series buses are retired, I suspect they'll get more ex-Suburban cruisers. Perhaps the 21260s🤷🏾‍♂️
  13. 8 Bergen Ave 10 (there's been an occasional artic on that line, though the route does need more artics to handle the overcrowding) 24 31 62 ( need to do something about increasing service levels and have more luggage rack buses. Too many luggage rack buses on other routes) 70 ( having artics run all day weekday besides the weekends) 72 ( revert service back to every 20 minutes during the weekday and increase service levels during late evening. Buses are always late and overcrowded) 74 (weekday peak and weekends) 84 (Bergenline Ave. says it all) 88 99 (has seen artics on the route currently) 107 (NJT needs to get with PA for gate assignment change just to have artics run throughout the day and weekends. Currently, only a few inbound artics into NYC and outbound fro the PABT during rush hour) 119 (needs to limit the usage of 40 footers on that line, especially during the weekend and holiday service) 125 ( Has seen artics on the line along with MCI cruisers. One artic has been used throughout the day on non peak weekday, Saturday and possibly Sunday 171 ( hate 40 Nabis on that hourly line. Route does need artics if Market St doesn't get the return of their PABT routes. The route gets crowded during peak period rush hours since it runs every hour, which is stupid. Saturday service could use the artics and most definitely during the holiday season.) 400 ( Maybe the only route in South Jersey from what I've read in past posts that needs artics 703 709 ( NJT needs to take this route back. Overcrowding, lateness and no-shows. ) 712 ( stupid crowded during peak periods and holiday season. Only line on Union Ave) Those are my suggestions routes that either need artics or additional artics
  14. Do they have 21280? I've seen that bus twice on routes 190 and 161 respectively
