It never left... It's been at JA for a while now. Unless it left recently forgive me but i saw it last month or back in September at JA.

Well I can tell you the little bit that I know. But I heard it's getting a different engine so they have to do some testing just to be sure. But it didn't have a fire or accident because I was behind it when it was leaving New York 2 guys came to pick it up and I was returning home from PA and saw it heading into PA.

Right, but that bus will be scrapped. They're not gonna waste money on a 1999 bus model that had a fire and that's bound to get scrapped soon anyways.

SCRAP... They're not fixing that. Look at the year of the bus, and how bad the fire was. It's still registered to YU but they have to investigate then get approval for scrap from the big man then they send it off to EC and pick off whatever's left of it.

Ahh okay, didn't know you shot 4899 either. I hope they could find a solution, well the only thing they have to do is get the transmission that matches that engine. They put a truck engine - a city bus transmission, typical MTA =(M)oney (T)hrown (A)way. 6529 has been at EN for a few weeks now. I saw it 2 weeks ago (I believe) on the 82, didn't know it was a move so I didn't post it lol.

Where did you hear it over heated and burned some parts? I heard it was something with the transmission but I know it's not in New York I believe it's in Oriansky... Well I don't know about now but last year in Oct it went out of service. I actually rode it in the Airport, transmission sounded bad. Can't officially take things off the roster just yet. Just sayin... and 7088 will be back soon (if it's not back in service now) Oh & speaking of OOS, you can list 4899 at the Vendor. Well it's not out here anymore either, since the engine continuously crapped out they're going to do either A - Run some rests and find a solution or B - Say to hell with it and repower it to a simple ISL9. It's been away since June

Ahh, never knew it went back. Thanks for mentioning it, are you using the Wiki Site ? Or did you create your own?

It never left (recently) it's been at GA for a month I believe. Fresh Pond was first to mention it weeks ago though. Yeah only 8975 is at EN. Only 8975 is at EN.. 9240 is at GA its been at GA for weeks now but it still has EN stickers, even though they didn't change the stickers that doesn't mean anything really.

8975 is at EN, 9240 is NOT at EN but it has EN stickers it's been at EN for a few weeks now, I just shot it yesterday morning on the B47.

Ahh, alright thanks .

Yeah it went there for a part. It came back though. Don't know if these were mentioned or posted but 8857, 8921 at JFK no stickers on either bus.

Actually it already has a new back. They just have to do some more things to it. Should he here by umm.. I'd say maybe next year January-March maybe. Btw.. 5112 is back at UP from Zerega.

5112 is a VENDOR move. Not a DEPOT move, it has an engine/transmission problem. It also won't go into reverse.. It's been sitting out back for 2 weeks I believe.

4944 EN - UP (again) . Has UP stickers..

Whoevers doing it they're just messin with you. Shit they probably watching the conversation now o.O

What a Random thought ehh.. * I think this belongs in the random thoughts section lol .

Hasn't it always been at MA or was that CH?

Well because.. Those buses aren't staying. Why put gps on buses that aren't staying. They're just here for a short period of time. Just because the ad is on there doesn't mean they have gps or will get gps they're just advertising. That's like when the gps first got activated on 320-345. 346 had a GPS ad and it was never activated. Plus, private contractors come along and change ads on buses they don't know any better lol.

Well 320-324 have been there for a few months. Didn't know about 325-330 going there.. And I don't think the bus time has anything to do with it... It was MANDATORY for all buses to get their GPS activated on them. The Bronx has theirs, they send guys out there in company/private cars and they get them processed. They do it at night though, that's what they were doing here at Ulmer Park. The people would come at night,, 3 guys per buses a night. But there was a Memo that all buses in the Bronx get their GPS activated, you could be right but I don't think the bus time had anything to do with it.

Don't know if reported but 327 JG - WF. Don't know why Gleason is losing buses, hopefully they're getting ones in return.

Oh, thought it came from JA. Thanks for mentioning it though.

Don't know if it was mentioned but 5143 JA (I believe) to FB .. Just saw it on the 49. Has MTA Bus on the sides.

Age/Mileage thing. But I do agree with what your saying ... All though it is good to swap around so you can see what they're all about .

I couldn't tell if it had EN stickers or FB stickers. I do know that FB is gaining/losing buses.

4977 EN - FB saw it in the yard Saturday. Don't know if this is a move, loaner or just for repairs.
