Bet you guys wasn't expecting an NG on the B9 tonight :-p

Sounds like the 46...

The B41 was so f**ked up they had an operator from Fresh Pond do an LTD trip from KP to Cadman Plaza..

Oh, fucck that. We have 2 MCIs from Ulmer Park in track 1, so I went to sleep in that bitch.

That was the plan all along; they just needed folks to get to where they were going quickly to evacuate the streets. Now, of course we were gonna complete our Sunday schedules since #1, what are we gonna do when we get back to the depot, right? #2, it gives the shifters enough time to park all buses coming into the depot at a slow pace rather all at once; trying to park the remainder of buses at 9pm would've been a madhouse. I stayed at the depot after my run last night, so got a full 24 hour shift in, then found a way home.

Eh, that's somewhat correct, but actually when the handle is in front-and-rear door position (or just rear door), the back doors will only open automatically when the operator flips the touchbar bypass button, and must do so every time he wants to open those rear doors at will. However, your scenario works on SBS buses. The LFSAs have a knob for SBS mode (which enables the flashing blue lights in front, and opens all doors automatically once handle is in the rear-and-front door position) and regular operation mode.

Good idea... ... but I suggested the B48 since it's low on ridership and this can attract many passengers from around Brooklyn going to LGA.

Just a wild thought I had over the past few days, but has there ever been any consideration of an direct bus route from Brooklyn to Laguardia Airport? We already have the B15 and the A train connecting the borough to JFK, why not have a connection to LGA as well? AFAIK, the only connection is via the F, G & R trains, then transfer to the Q33/47 buses. I took a look at the Brooklyn bus map, and one possible line that may get some usage is the B48 to LGA via the Kosciuszko Bridge into Queens. Possible suggestions?

The B41 has enough runs as it is. The only issue with the line is constant traffic congestion on Flatbush Avenue.

Mostly NGs, unless there's none available upon pullout.

You have it under the MJQ assignment per the roster.

Pay attention then, bruh. Better hope you don't get my bus on the B46 my man.

Not with me; I hit the emergency brake override button to get them bitches closed, quick.

Ok, moderator.

You're a dollar van op?

It was moved to 126 a few months ago. I've only had that bus once when it was at Flatbush.

I know exactly who you're talking about - that's my boy. I saw him on the fuel line tonight as I was going home. If you want a real LTD operator, you better hope you're on my bus one night. lol

Old news. We have 9560, 68-72.

Both 5144 & 9635 can die, slow. 5144 is worse piece of shit I ever had. Fucck that bus.

472 at Gleason, deadheading to Brownsville 2 mins ago

I'm fuccking with him. I know him personally. lmfao!

Hold on, fact or fiction?

9569 at Flatbush from Grand Avenue

The hoes must stop their fucckery.
