The Real

Yes they are, they are at the Morris Garage.

There is too many pages thats why we created the wiki which has all of that information translated into web format: http://www.ttmg.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=New_Jersey_Transit_Bus_Operations_Fleet_Roster ...and WE know that they labeled the 1600s wrong, but the VINs are correct.

Print out from NJ Transit database showing the NABI order...

Actually there buddy, it is correct. I'm looking at an official roster and bus order list from the NJ Transit database. They have UP to 6538 with the remaining units for Coach USA/ONE, Broadway Bus, M&W IBOA and NJT Depots. And if you would like, I can scan the file and PDF here for you guys eyes. Nothing I put out is put out unless it comes from an official source. 250 Suburbans+1,038 Transits for a grand total of 1,288 buses (1,145 primary buses+143 option buses) is absolutely Correct!

TTMG is bringing back the NJ Transit Rosters, we have already completed the Fleet Roster which can be seen here: http://www.ttmg.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=New_Jersey_Transit_Bus_Operations_Fleet_Roster We are currently working on the Depot roster which should be up befor ethe weekend is out.

1304 was never 4704.

4753 is not Gun Hill's bus...

Updated as of 3/7/13 @ 1:42AM: http://www.ttmg.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=New_York_MTA_Bus_Operations_Depot_Roster

As of INITIAL report...JFK is to get 1300-1304, 4705, 4707-4709, 5433, 5509 from System Reserve Storage and THEN the best of the best of the 2000 D60HFs from KB and GH. BP may very well get a few of these 2000 D60HFs from KB & GH as Baisley Park is ready to roll. Stops on Brewer are lengthened already and the depot is set up. There is a meeting of sorts tomorrow at HQ about the final roll out of Artics at these two depots. Stay Tuned!

Roster Effective: March 4th, 2013 @ 1:28PM ET (Bronx, Brooklyn & Manahattan Divisions Updated ONLY) http://www.ttmg.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=New_York_MTA_Bus_Operations_Depot_Roster

Bronx Division & System Reserve ONLY Updated at this time: http://www.ttmg.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=New_York_MTA_Bus_Operations_Depot_Roster Other divisions will be update between tonight and tomorrow.

6550 is actually paint. 491 is still under warranty, more than likely since Mike's came and got it, it went straight to NESF (Service Center).

There has been a significant fleet swap between CP/LG and JK/FR. LG lost the QM12 to CP. JK lost the QM15 split to FR.

164 BACK at LG as of this afternoon and on the Q69. 156 remains at CP for now, but expect it back at LG as well.

Because its temporarily until the C40LF deliveries resume, there is some kind of pause right now in the C40LF acceptance. And with the new pick, some runs have been added, so they needed the extra buses!

Updated as February 2nd, 2013 @ 11:40AM ET: http://www.ttmg.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=New_York_MTA_Bus_Operations_Depot_Roster This update has a lot of movements, it also reflects the new MTA Bus pick effective 2/4/13 which has a few route movements, some major fleet movements, too many to list, figure it out!

What I find is that even though a Vendor may advertise a specific company, they do work on other components outside of just Engines or what have you. So it likely there for something other than engine work, actually after some research H.O. Penn does emissions compliance work.

They've been swapping buses back and forth for months. MA has a maintenance rack but IIRC, something like 2 or 3 make-shift bays. So what happens is they send buses down to CH when they have an overflow, HOWEVER, instead of returning the buses directly to MA once the maintenance has completed, what has occurred is a sort of cycle....When MA brings a bus down for maintenance, they take a bus from CH to fill in for service. It's become a loop or rotation of buses if you will. Occasionally, MA will drop a bus by YU or CA and take one from them. But it seems the big cycle is between CH and MA.

If you look at the table of contents of the roster, you will see the MTA official abbreviation for each facility next to it. I bet 80% of the viewers just go straight to the depots instead of reading the top portion of the roster and studying it for a minute. 70% of the questions I get about that roster are answered in the top portion AND throughout the roster if folks would look at other stuff than just the fleet numbers. *SMH* So much for educating the transit fans...
