    No bitchassness.

    Correct. The bus wasn't the cause of anything, but due to the impact of the two cars, the red car heading northbound on East 5th bounced into the front of 9570 (bus was sitting still since he saw the black car doing 70+) causing some damage I believe, but the operator is fine. Not a pretty sight. Check the roster next time, rude boy: http://www.ttmg.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=MTA_Regional_Bus_Operations_Depot_Roster lol

    9570 will be the next bus to be moved to UP once it's finished with an investigation by officials. It was supposed to be moved with 9644 on Friday night (Saturday morning), but, again... An incident occurred during the move.

    That don't mean shit bro. My handle is "Acela Express" and I don't know 100% of what's going on with those trainsets at the moment.
  7. Acela Express
    I'll be the judge of that because when we got 9633 from 126, it was a piece of shit when I drove it on Utica Avenue. 9633 is at UP now btw, and was out of service since October prior to the movement.
  8. Acela Express
    That hasn't been confirmed 100% yet, so I'm sticking to a "few weeks" until I hear otherwise at the depot.

    Not sure why we (the Bush) got 9638 when they've been pushing out the '97-98 models to Ulmer Park and a few to Grand Avenue. And pretty soon they'll be all pushed out with the arrival of our new LFSAs in a few weeks.

    5840 transferred in from Quill to the Bush this afternoon.
  11. Acela Express
    Uh, no... That's the run-on/off route for us heading to JFK for the A Shuttle. Some us (including myself) put up different signs as we deadhead. My particular trademark is B46 LTD to Kings Highway, via Utica. But the deadhead is via Utica from the depot, right on Flatlands, right on Pennsylvania, left onto Belt Pkwy entrance, exit at Lefferts Blvd, right on Lefferts, then another right at Aqueduct Rd to the end if the long term parking lot and enter on the left.

    By the way, 5821 was moved to Casey Stengel this afternoon. That was the best LFSA at Flatbush!
  13. Acela Express
    Correct. They want to preserve the lifespan of the 9600s and sending them to UP will be less wear & tear, and get more out of the buses before their retirement.
  14. Acela Express
    I know - I've driven both in the past month before the move to UP. I drove 9644 only about 2-3 times since I've been at Flatbush, and I know about it's whirring sound, but it's great takeoff. Most of the 9600s we had/have are pretty damn good though, and I'll miss them.

    9612, 9618, 9648 & 9649 being moved to Ulmer Park tonight from Flatbush. I had 9649 and I had to bring it back to the depot for the bus move. All 4 buses listed above are BEASTS!!!
  16. Acela Express
    5319 & 5320 delivered to Gun Hill earlier today.
  17. Acela Express
    I got some hoes lined up if you guys need to release any stress or tension, because fighting over who saw what bus is lack of bedroom activities.. #justsaying

    Talk about being late. lol http://www.nyctransitforums.com/forums/topic/37474-b7-makes-a-movement-this-january/#entry590991
  19. Acela Express
    Well, I found out the official reason why Flatbush is losing a good bit of our 9600s to Flatbush -- it has to do with the mileage put on the buses, and Flatbush is pretty much wearing them out with the routes we operate, so moving them to Ulmer Park will be suitable maintenance wise during the final duration of their lifespan. The only line that will be putting those buses to heavy usage now is the B6.
  20. Acela Express
    9625 at Ulmer Park from Flatbush.
  21. Acela Express
    4965 and others (see TTMG roster) have been moved to the Bush from East New York.
  22. Acela Express
    Add 9691 to the list as well.
  23. Acela Express
    9617 & 9623 at Ulmer Park from Flatbush
  24. Acela Express
    4966, 4976 & 4978 can be added to the ENY -> FLA list. The transfer was a late follow up as they were delivered within the past hour.
  25. Acela Express
    4964, 4967, 4973, and 4989 have been transferred to Flatbush from East New York.
