3 things I saw tonight.
1. rode 7178 on the 129 which I thought was clearly a egg harbor bus but it had da meadowlands garage sticker depot so I'm guessing its a meadowlands bus now.
2. 7170 has a clever device as well.
3. saw 6258 on the 72.
Orange & Hilton have traded buses & this is a offical move. Orange got 5831 - 5851 but there maybe b more but as 4 Hilton idk which one's they got in return. I'll have to keep an eye out 4 that. but the reason behind this move was so that hilton would also have buses with the shields as orange does.
I was on 5665 on the 83 last night & asked the driver bout it & he said that bus been there 4 the past week. also Orange has all their nabi's complete all 5935-5999. but as for 6000 I have no idea bout that bus.
Here are the remaining of my last 2600's & 2700's left at Orange as of today.
2620, 2661, 2663, 2690, 2711, 2721, 2729, 2731, 2735, 2740, 2744, 2746, 2751, 2753, 2754, 2774, 2775
1437 is back at Hilton & refurbished looking brand new. Also when I went down to cherry hill mall last week on Friday I didn't spot that many novas expect the one I took on the 405 which was 1577 & 1263 on the 455.
I just found out from the garage supervisor today that some of orange's nabi's are being recalled back n some r being sent back down to Alabama bc these 5900's were built improperly n were always in the shop n were giving the mechanics trouble.
Add 1504 to Orange Garage. Saw it while in the garage & also seen 5944 & 5949 in there. Thats the highest 1 their at now. its starts from 5935-5949 but they missing some in between. Also 553 if u read this y is egg harbor sending their novas up to orange.
Add 1498 to Orange Garage seen tonight on the 34. & as 4 8855 it is indeed the rodeo bus. it was on 190 when I seen it & the drivers name on the bus was Thomas 4got his last name tho. I'm sure he's mad they sent his bus up north.
I know most of their 30ft Novas went to Montgomery & Westside IBOA. But I have no clue where 4001-4003 went. Also the 94 line from Orange is not split with Hilton & the 39 is now a Hilton route no longer split with Big Tree.
Well most of them are scrapped. But some of them are still being kept just in case 1 of Orange's novas goes outta order & they bring it in as a replacement. Also 1 more thing I don't think Hamilton has anymore RTS-06 (30 Ft) novas.
Ok here are of the mistakes u have to fix. There are no more 1995 Novas at Hilton & Meadowlands. Only Orange has em. Also add 1437,1481,2605,2620,2645,2656,2661,2663,2664,2678,2757 for Orange roster & take away 2724 which has been out service for almost 4 years now & 2606. Also Hilton starts with 5406-5430, add 5756 to Big Tree, & add 1286,1487,1488 to Egg Harbor.
