What's wrong with the F express (besides not having enough of them)?
The stops it skips have high ridership and because the
is maxed out in terms of frequency, there cannot be any more added express trips without making cuts somewhere.

So I catch the 4:31 s98 bus since the 4:30 was packed to the rim and instead of starting the route he brings me back to the terminal and makes me wait for the 4:50. No wonder ridership is dropping, you wait for a bus, you pay and then he goes back to the terminal.
5 minutes ago, Lil 57 said:True but if you have already picked people up and are leaving the terminal the dispatcher shouldn't make the b/o go back to the ferry. It's an inconvenience that discourages ridership.
They might have needed that bus to fill an extremely late or missing trip. Yes, it’s inconvenient, but sometimes that’s how service has to be made. It’s not the first time that has occurred.

I think this was said already, but 8185 is still at CA. Currently working the S40.

In addition, bring an umbrella if you have one.

The
uses up to 7-8 R46s during the rush, so it’s nothing unusual.

Is this the same case with ENY when they have the LFS?
I can’t say for sure, but probably. EN only had those LFS as a placeholder for their RTS.

How do you know that will Actually happen? Never say Never ,plans change all the time with MTA yes NGS will leave Staten island but they could send some 7000's over to Yukon for Locals and S79 SBS still get there allotment its a wait and see.unless you have some sort of inside info,
Transit also wants all SBS routes using buses with USB ports and WiFi which the 7000s and most 2015-16 LFS do not have, so it makes no sense sending them to Yukon.
Albeit slowly, Yukon is receiving all 77 of their LFS. As I said before, just because Castleton has a few, it doesn’t mean they will stay.

Remember, if anything, some 2015 LFS buses can be transferred to Yukon from Castleton. I'll like to see the new buses on routes other than the Yukon routes on SI.
Perhaps, but again, they’re slated for YU and they will receive them.
Also remember, YU has school runs on Castleton and Chareston routes so you will eventually spot them on other routes.
Neither Castleton nor Charleston have 10+ year old local buses that need to be transferred out or replaced.

Told yall CASTLETON was gonna get new LFS buses.
About time....
Now I just wish it was 90 LMAOO. But something is better than nothing.
Don’t celebrate so early... they won’t stay for that long. Remember, YU still has NGs that are being transferred out. Plus, it’s the summer, so school is out, and Yukon doesn’t need all of them right now.
Castleton’s fleet is in good shape. Their oldest local buses are only 8 years old. Just because the new buses there now doesn’t mean they will stay...

Is there a reason to how come the S79 is a SBS route but doesn't do machines with receipts and all-doors to open?
With the exception of the SI Mall and the first stop in Brooklyn, ridership at the stops aren’t enough to warrant off-board payment.

If you're using the old site, the schedules are not updated. They're slowly trying to transition everything on the new site, which is where they appear.
I see. I’ll start using the new site, then.

I am not doing the rest of the boroughs.
I moved this here since it has nothing to do with express buses. Could you post a link for one of the mentioned routes? And no, I’m not asking for the other boroughs.

Does anyone know if 3170-3173 has ever came out for testing yet? I saw it Passing through Euclid Av last year in October, since I was not expecting it I only managed to get a decent pic out of it.
I’ve seen that set in service before.
