    What's sad is that the Bee-Line Orion Vs were in like-new condition when they were handed over to the MTA. No rust, straight bodies, everything working. In less than 6 months, the MTA aged the buses 3-4 years. Holes in the body panels, rusting, body cracks...

    I'm more of a LFS man, myself.

    5822, 5830-5831 has returned to MQ (or will be before days end). 5856-5858 are in 100th St Temporarily. 5859-5962 are at MQ as well. There is NO gaps in buses between 5772-5862 on the property as of this posting.

    It is a Temporary 100th St Bus...

    You have loaner buses at QV and MV so that the older Orion 7 Hybrids can be repainted and decal-ed. This is also why West Farms and Gleason has not fully retired the Orion 5 CNGs so that they can "fastrack" the 8 year upgrades on the OGs.

    499?! We don't even have 320-498?! WTF...

    What I'm trying to picture here is how the transmission fell out period. If anyone has paid attention to the LFS's design, the powertrain is completely enclosed including underneath...If the transmission did in fact drop out the bus, then there is severe damage to the drive train, the axle, 9 times outta 10 the engine and everything around it as there must of been some sort of powertrain detonation that would blow that cover from underneath the bus and drop the tranny.

    OK.

    2081 has been off the UP roster for some time already.

    Told you guys, the MTA is still getting paid from Nassau, MTA is some pimps! Farebox Leases, Bus Leases among other things! MTA still getting that Nassau cash!!!! Should've just left well enough alone, left the MTA in Nassau and just give them what they required to operate. TRUST the candy wrapper is gonna fall off Veolia soon enough and you'll get the bitter ginger inside.

    315?

    Bx19

    Can someone PLEASE confirm this movement of 22 Buses (6724-6745) to MV from MQ. Credible source made no mention of this move. This move makes ZERO sense to me as MQ did not loose any routes in this pick and MV lost routes and gained no routes...
  18. The Real
    6766 and 6768 are still at MV pending maintenance work.
  19. The Real
    M98 is split between MV and MQ

    I D K, but yesterday afternoon, it was next to 230 and 9903 being pre-tripped (across from 5772 with drivers clambering over it). And I did a double take when I saw it because I totally forgot it was there. (And I take it back, it was around 3pm, just looked at a photo time stamp of another photo I took around the time I saw it)
  22. The Real
    8798 can't be back, I saw 8798 parked in West Farms next to 230 yesterday around 2:30pm.
  23. The Real
    Wait, Huh? WHAT?!
  24. The Real
    5772 is not at WF, left yesterday back to KB.
