Reason being it was at Jamaica depot. BF For Stengel (being fixed up, maintained )
Also all those MCIs pulled from EC For the shuttle are back in their resting place at EC
9360 had to be towed out to Grand the other day, wouldn't shift into any gear and something about the wiring harness
9654 had a tranny swap (would just rev at high RPM when shifted into reverse and barely move)
Noticed this long while ago when it came back from 8 year...
6443 is fitted with an "Ultracapacitor"
I guess that's what the new vent on the cover is for
Under the impression that 126th street and FLatbush don't like queens
With the exception of 9642 & 9652, every single RTS we got from both depots has had to be to worked on, or taken oos.
9426 -> Transmission, Air bags/suspension & AC Fan belt
9638 -> forgot why it needed work
9639 -> AC Fanbelt & leveling valve needed to be fix'd
9640 -> ....
9641 -> transmission takes forever to go into 2nd/no power
9651 -> Slow as hell, was written up three times in the past two days by operators
9653 -> Transmission & some engine work
9654 -> when in reverse just revs at high RPM and slightly moves
9655 -> was oos for a day I don't remember what it was
9657 -> uhm missing lights, or burnt out lights. Needs some electrical work too
Interesting here, some of the remaining in service Orion V CNGs at CP are ACTUALLY assigned to LGA, as in on LGA's roster.
9836, 9871, 9889, 9891, 9902 also at CP it seems only 9849, 9860, 9880, 9899, and 9919 are left active...
