Will the rest of the LGA batch be split between MJQ and Flatbush?  I have that feeling that this may be the case. Honestly that whole 5175-5199 batch should of went back to Flatbush. I will not discredit MJQ. However, they have more than enough fleet, and Flatbush has lost some fleet as of late over to CS (Queens).

Well 5183 went to storage 

As of now 5195 to scrap

I'm honestly sort of surprised the JFK RTS did not fully retire yet. With the move of the 99 RTS at LGA, the 96 ones may be replaced by XD60s and shifted OGs likely.

The XDs will wipe out the 96s. The 99s are supposed to go back to transit and some more hybrids will go to eastchester

I do agree.  When those buses were in JFK. The maintenance was OK. However, subpar. Those buses will be given life back at transit. 

Those buses weren’t at JFK along enough to say that

Why the switch back to  NYCT.  That switch should of commence way long ago.  But this is interesting. 

Because MTA bus ruined those buses. The 99s are very different buses from any of the previous models. Let them go back to transit.

Is it me or College Point is really that short of buses and Spring Creek inherited those Gleason/West Farms buses. 

30 minutes ago, James Goodwin said:

How is College point short? That makes no sense. Every CNG bus depot is short on buses seemingly (including NICE's MF depot) except JG depot. 

These buses are to help provide service to the Q102 shuttle being operated between 30th ave and Queens Plaza while the astoria stations gets rebuilt.

I would think so, but what ever happened to #4619? That bus was even that damaged and it's still O/S?

Yessir. Bus had frame damage. Worse then 4137.

First run of the day (the hawk) on the Q53 goes to 6046. It has begun!

It didn't make it out there very long. Bus road called around 4AM

Effective this Monday: the Q52/53 will be converted into artic routes, with the Q41 being based out of FR.

Incorrect. The 52 and 53 will see artics but not the entire route. Additionally, the 41 will not go to FR until November 12th.

What!? 

Yessir. 261 went out on the B6 and 672 did both the B6 and B64.

All 3 buses are back at Gleason

37 minutes ago, Around the Horn said:

So they're just there as insurance and probably won't get used?

261 saw service on the B6 already.

2 hours ago, Around the Horn said:

Ok so anyone know whats going on with the 3 C40's from Gleason at Ulmer Park?

Bus shortage. Buses are 261, 448 and 672.

To scrap or to Brooklyn?

 

It's the end of an era...

7674 and 7679 at at Gleason. 7665 is in the system at gleason but GPS has it at west farms. 

5049 & 5130 to ENY

How will the Q52/53 be divided?

Q52 all JFK, Q53 all LGA, or mixed and interlined?

This is correct. Additionally, with the 52 going to JFK, the Q41 will be going out to Far Rock.

That auction ended. Was 9207 assigned to 126th street for its 1st depot?

Yes, 9207 was brand new to 126. 

8 hours ago, TheHat said:

That makes more sense, it was sold off the roster & not for scrap. Now what is its current disposition, that is the question?

Oh it's in a good place now 

And yes, thats what it  meant is that is retired from service. Should have worded it better. In the purpose of this roster, it is on the scrapped side of things not meaning its scrapped but it is not stored either. 

On 10/7/2017 at 12:57 PM, UTC Bus Roster said:

1226 was reported by a very reliable source in ECH scrap yard. No visible damage.

While the bus is in the scrap yard, it may not be scrap. System roster does not have it on the scrap list, so it should not be deemed as such.

8126 is gone, waiting a tow to Eastchester. 

There is a good chance they will repair 8126. 1258 had similar damage and it got rebuilt. Lets not rush to judge it so quickly.

You can now officially take 9207 off the scrapped list.

From the MTA list you can deem it scrapped. 

8831 to scrap. 5035 to storage. 

9002 to scrap

6579-6588 all back to FP. 

6120 is at OH and not CS.

These are from the system directly as of tonight. A lot of buses that are not in this list but are in the lot are also scrap as well. Alot of buses never made it into this list. 

Before anyone reports that 6110 is at gleason, the bus is in the system still at JFK. GPS does have it at gleason though. 

Which has me asking this question....where the heck did 6113 go!?

Its at OH
