  1. Making threats are we? No one knows who you are. I don't, and I'm sure the rest of this forum doesn't know, nor do I think we would even care to know. I don't know what kind of impression you're trying to make here, but it's not a very good one so far. The only impression I'm getting from you is that you want to get booted off of this forum. Keep this back and forth off of this thread for f**ks sake. If you can't act mature, see yourself the f**k up and out of here. Respect and trust from folks on this forum is to be earned, not demanded.
  2. I don't mind it on the 126 as much mostly because the line is short and passenger flow on the 126 isn't that bad on an MCI. The 150s, however, especially a reverse peak 158....HORRIBLE. And there's people that bring luggage onto the bus. I rode on a 22000 a few weeks ago on the 158 and the dwell time was forever.
  3. Makes more sense to send those back to Wayne than for Fairview to maintain two different fleets of MCIs. I still don't understand why Fairview has MCIs, those things are horrible on all of their lines.
  4. When Meredith first opened, that took a lot of stress away from Yukon and Castleton specifically since they always had a ton of express buses OOS. Charleston also had their fair share of problems maintenance wise in the beginning. And with it being a weekday-only depot and a mostly rush-hour depot, that kept the mileage on a lot of those 2400s down. At least with it going away by the summer, it'll kill off the shortages that Castleton is having(but definitely not their maintenance woes). But now, my question is whether or not Yukon or Charleston will have space for the extra buses that Meredith has gotten, especially the 1500s. Having been in and out of Charleston personally.....I have doubts.
  5. Removed the last few posts due to them not contributing to anything in regards to this thread, along with a few others just posting for no reason at all. And please, I'm only going to ask this once before folks get warnings applied to their account. Report buses ONLY IF they are at Eastchester scrap, being parted out or if they've haven't seen service for more than 3-4 weeks or so. As I've said before, removal of fare payment systems DOES NOT always mean its being retired. I feel like I've said this more than once already. As mentioned by Seveneleven in another thread, we do not want this place to be a source of misinformation, so make sure that whatever you post is 100% solid, this especially applies to you @Calvinwith your posting habits and history. If you have no business posting in this thread and is posting for literally no reason at all, stay out, you know who you are.
  6. There's like 5 of them in service right now.
  7. I'm going to need you to stop lying before you get the boot from this forum. You keep posting misinformation without proof. This is straight from DCAS themselves. As you can clearly see, it has an extension date up to next year. Look it up yourself if you'd like - https://data.cityofnewyork.us/widgets/vx8i-nprf
  8. The list has not been closed yet. It has been extended to 2025 as per DCAS's Civil Service page.
  9. You think discord is a politically supported social media network? You're definitely out of touch. It's basically Skype or any other messaging platform for gamers and regular people, nowhere close to being a social media network of any kind. I don't know how you're against something you know nothing about. As for the numbers, they may be the ones you mentioned, but let's not make any assumptions.
  10. They won't get these MCIs. A bit of training for buses that are technically 3 or so year rentals aint worth it. Better off sending it to depots that are actually trained with them, in this case, basically all of Staten Island. And Ulmer Park's maintenance has always been on the shifty side when it comes to their express fleet, so it's more or less their own doing.
  11. So, this isn't completely official yet, as it's pending FTA approval, but Green Mountain Transit up in Vermont is planning to transfer 7 2013 MCI D4500CTs over to NYCT. These buses have not been used in service for some time. I can definitely see Castleton getting all 7 of these. There is a pretty good chance that these will also be in the new scheme, just completely wrapped. Whether or not the signs or the alcoas will remain will be up for debate(they'll likely get swapped out). -edit- lol to whomever that reported this on Discord. Y'all are quick!
  12. They've been slated for a few years now to get electric local buses. They were supposed to get the 25 Electric Bus order for MTA Bus, but that's been postponed several times now.
  13. Deadline was a few weeks ago. We'll find out in Late March/Early April.
