The buses don't have to go there. With the Novas, they go from Plattsburgh to the assigned depot. With New Flyers, they get delivered to the JFK vendor, then go to their assigned depot.

-As for the 8073-8089 LFS swap, the only unit that has not been transferred is 8085. The swap is also 8072-8089, not 8073.
1004 was an ORIGINAL 1996 D60HF that was only renumbered to 1000 because we had the former 52/53/54/5500s that were renumbered 1001-1009, 1011-1027. That bus was not a 1999 unit.
Happy new years folks!
It is with a sad stomach that I report the following buses from the museum fleet are going to or already have been scrapped:
-MTA NYC Bus 6000 (1999 Orion V)
-MTA NYC Bus 1000 (Ex-1004; 1996 New Flyer D60HF)
-Command Bus 4904 (1994 TMC RTS CNG)
