Novabus 5000

6110 is at the FACILITY, not the depot. It may go to the depot later, but for now it is NIS. We also have 6112 and 6114 siting there as well.

 

None are SBS wrapped at the moment.

And this photo along with it being in the system at JFK states otherwise...

Yep. We have 20 96’ in service. 4 97’ were put in storage recently so the rest shld be 98-99’s.

We have 4 97s still running. 9457, 9511, 9667 at Grand and 9674 at Fresh Pond. In addition 9503, 9580 and 9590 are non revenue buses at ENY.

Both 5102 and 5111 are now in the system reserve/storage section of the roster. Also in system reserve/storage is 5557-5558, 5585, 5616, 5636, 5674, 5692-5693, 5716, 5718, 7442, 9539, 9690 and 9699. 

5111 has been moved to the system storage list. 5102 is on the scrap list.

Seen a bus last night at the facility. It looked like 725 but couldn't make out the # correctly. Did anymore buses pull in yet?

Up to 726 at West Farms.

5690 to WF. 

5111 officially retired and on the scrap list in the system. 5102 listed at UP but has no GPS.

Any word on 4975? The back of the bus overheated and caused a [emoji91] yesterday

That bus is done. Transit won't bother to fix it given its age and state of damage. 

Ah so it was a recent move because it was at JFK in the afternoon. Guess the MTA Bus order isn't delayed after all.

Nope. They are coming in right after the transit order is 100%. They are using this bus to prep ops on the 53 for artics. 

What is the issue with 5111?

Transmission issues.

3419 off the roster, entire right side of the front end is done. Saw pics today

Tours of ENY & FB will do that to a bus.

That came from UP. When it was at ENY it was a great bus

Nope, not buying it. The light blue is painted. Look at the signal light covers, they're light blue. On the wrapped new scheme buses 5364-5411, the signal light covers are white.

No it is not painted. It is a wrap. 

You have to remember, on 5364-5411 (minus 5368), those buses were extreme rushjobs to debut the new scheme. Can't use those much for comparison other then that it is a fully wrapped bus. 

4995 & 5002 to FP

I've seen this bus and it has a few distinctive features from the rest of the orders, like a newly designed LED headlamps, side cornering lamps and either lights or some type of device over the rear wheel fenders...

Preview photo of 6004, which confirms two things:

1. They will have the flood light behind the first wheel.

2. The light blue on the lower half is blue SBS.

*Not my photo. Credit to whoever took this picture*

I stand corrected. I just checked the delivery details and it was in fact delivered to SC brand new. So when the hell did it go to SC? It's been there for a at least 3 weeks or more.

 

It's actually on loan to JA and it's on the hawk. Lol. Run 001. This could be an indication that it's headed to SC afterwards. However I didn't see it on the transfer list. I could have overlooked it as more moves are pending.

Actually it was out on the E shuttle lol 

Why is CS getting LFSA's from Flatbush for? Is Flatbush getting something in return?

More then likely they added runs to the Q44 for the summer, and because none of the even XD60s showed up, they had to borrow buses from elsewhere to compensate for the added service. Let the first 5-6 even buses show up and hit service and those buses will be gone

need photo proof

Ditto for photo proof, and I'm assuming it's the village's bus?

Yes it is QV's bus.

8017 back in service
