The buses are where they want to be, not in passenger service. More for them to cap and degrade in the future... Awesome.

TU/MCH seem to loan back & forth for the M15 & M15 SBS, nothing new to me. I moved 4686, thanks Calvin. I'll second that! BTW, all those XD60's are confirmed to go to College Point, I heard that through the grapevine at the DOB. When the Q52/Q53 SBS is implemented, they'll both move to CP. Now stop speculating and POST ACTUAL MOVES!!!! Also, yeah JA - got that already. Gotta double check on tracker again, thanks man. Yeah I got that one - was the bus in too bad of shape, like scrap bad? Also, roster updated: https://sites.google.com/site/nycbuses/ No, I'm not a mod - but please, I don't like scrolling through pages of speculation and "usuing my brain" to get to the actual moves and factual information. You guys can post in the random bus thoughts thread about that... a place I can't remember posting in ever. Oh, I'm not moving any buses around today, because while the MTA continues regular day-to-day operations today, because it's a regular day, some of you do not. I'll be double-checking every single move today.

Thanks for updating it bro, I just made one minor addition, 7094 is on the B15 right now. https://sites.google.com/site/nycbuses/

I meant 2490-2491, 2493-2511, 2513. It's on the roster as such. Ok, I'll add 7318 and move 5039 back to UP then. Our roster's year column is based on model year, as now specified in the key. The model year of the Bees that are currently in service are from 1996. The NYCT O5's are from 1998 (6000-6003) & 1999 (6004-6349). They are separated as such on the roster. If you are referring to why the amounts are combined - that's because they are the same make and model. They are Orion V Model 05.501 buses built by Orion Bus Industries. Though they were built in a different year and spec'd slightly different, they are still all Orion V's built by the same company. Example: If I had 8 Granny Smith Apples picked on March 10th, and I had 6 Granny Smith Apples picked on March 20th, I have 14 Granny Smith Apples. Some were newer than others, but they are all Granny Smith Apples. If I had 8 Granny Smith Apples picked on March 10th, and I had 6 Macintosh Apples picked on March 20th, then I have 8 Granny Smith Apples and 6 Macintosh Apples. They are two different kinds of apples. Refer to the MCI fleets for a roster example. I hope that clarifies things. It shouldn't be the biggest deal though.

I might just put it back at UP. I mean it hasn't hit any kind of service at FP, or anywhere else. Another 98' RTS went to Fresh Pond a few months back from UP (I think it was 2 of them), and it never saw service there - then went back to UP.

https://sites.google.com/site/nycbuses/ Updated: (Some of these moves were already done, I'm just refreshing you guys. If there's any errors let me know, I'll fix it. 133, 184, 6012, 6016, 6022 gone (from EC). 9331 gone (from LG). 6011, 6020-6021, 6026-6027 EC to GH. 5007, 5134 FB to UP. 5140-5149, 5171-5174 FB to EN. 5039 is sitting at FP, don't think it's hit service there. 7255-7256, 7264 are back at FP. 9043, 9052, 9056-9057, 9072 EN to JA. 7304-7307, 7309-7317, 7319, 7322-7325, 7327 now at FB. 2512, 2514-2517 now at YU. 2490-2511, 2513 now at CH. That's it for now.

Ok, got it. Got it I'll take care of it soon.

https://sites.google.com/site/nycbuses/ Updated, thanks for hounding FB lol. Question: 7386 - anyone spot that bus?

Ok that's understandable. Yeah that's how I feel as well.

I know sometimes people ask where a bus is, or mention the fleets possible destination, but that doesn't seem off-topic. What would be considered off-topic in this discussion?

https://sites.google.com/site/nycbuses/ Updated, thanks guys. I figured, this is just like the Fresh Pond XD's loaned to FB, which have since returned.

Thanks man, and yeah they'll hit service in that training, as there are new modifications over the original 90. Got it, i'll keep an eye on it. Interesting, I'll put em on! I got 7325 on tracker too lol. Awesome! Ok, so those 6000's must be going to GH to stick around for the Novas coming in down the line.

Mentioned already, but thank you. Yukon? Ok, cool thanks. What were the assignment amounts for the Prevosts again? And, 7316-7317 were added. Mentioned a while back, thanks though. No, I'm not adding it to the roster yet, but 7295 is in Fresh Pond. I don't think it's hit service yet.

https://sites.google.com/site/nycbuses/ Updated, thanks guys.

Could be a loan, I'll keep an eye on it. 7313 I heard as well, I'll place it. 5142-5143, you tracked those? Yeah, heard about that one too.

It isn't trackable, but I found out it's there as well , so it's on the roster.

I'll do the update with those two, thanks bro. It's on the B46 right now. Got it.

I'll move 2416 in the morning, thanks MHV. The RTS' are separated by model year on my roster. For clarity through simplicity, the assigned amounts are combined - because even though they are differently spec'd, they are all RTS', with the same make and model name. The reason why the OG's are separate, is because they have different make/model names.

https://sites.google.com/site/nycbuses/ It's been updated. Thanks to anyone and everyone who helps and supports this roster. Updates: Scrapped buses are removed, which Kingsbridge did most of - I think he missed the second post Bill made. No biggie there. The OG/NG count at JFK has been fixed. 9072 is on the Q56, so it's been put back at ENY. Not mentioned on a past update, 7307, 7310, 7311 & 7315 are listed at FB.

I also find that even though FB's fleet has always been young, this NG/XD combo is insane! The more SBS'es Flatbush operates in the future, the more local buses to be freed. 7000-7089, the 3G's, are NOT hybrids. UP has never housed a hybrid. I'm almost certain anything pre-1999 is leaving Flatbush - IMO, there shouldn't be a single complaint about Flatbush Depot's fleet after these shifts, well except the steps issue that was mentioned by Grand Concourse.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that lol. Ok, that makes sense.

Updates: 9422, 9429, 9573, 9637 are wiped off the FP roster. 5146-5149 are now at ENY, expect more of these to be sent out over the coming weeks, as FB get's their XD's. 2401 at YU, also could be a loan, but I moved it just in case. 4919 I didn't move because I heard that one over the radio - it's a storage thing for the snow & train shuttle operations. A couple of them should be there. Updated: https://sites.google.com/site/nycbuses/

Interesting, thanks for the information.
