  1. The LFS will happen more often when they get more units, the Q21 and Q22 has yet to be seen with it. But, for now, the old gens are near to full removal at JFK. You'll see next gens more but won't be instantly gone for a while. Only time they'll retire the next gens out of said depot is if the unit cannot be repaired.
  2. The bike rack used on 4027 and 4029 has been removed. 4031 and 4032 are preparing removal at Eastchester.
  3. 34, if you count 3500 and 3702 in training at Zerega. However, that will not last long.
  4. Ulmer Park should be okay minus that one XD-40 due to the recent incident (7565 is OOS but still have enough units). The B6 takes up most of their standards in fleet total. By calculation to how buses each route is used at the standard pool, they have 20-26 units leftover in each rush hour.
  5. There were two R142As on the yesterday with one R142 due to the 149 St-Grand Concourse yesterday. Brings back the old days with the R142As when they were all at Westchester. Ex units in-service were 7646-7650. - On the techs to 149 St-Grand Concourse, the strip map doesn't dot the said stops. It starts at Utica Av from what I observed. - Also, nothing bad, there was a lot of dashing and excitement with "honk the horn" as soon as that 142A went in and out of the loop. There was somewhat of a petition that's said, "Bring back R142As to the 6".
  6. Platform barriers are tested on the line, 191 St
  7. There were missing bolts found on cars 9338-9342 on the as said from a news link today. https://www.gazettextra.com/news/nation_world/mta-seeks-to-crack-case-of-missing-f-train-bolts-in-coney-island-subway-derailment/article_89865a91-5db3-5af9-b34a-64b4bc5a2121.html
  8. Still active. Just in storage at Far Rock for now.
  9. 3665: JFK, however, currently no longer has a farebox for passenger service.
  10. 7349 has a LED that says MTA NYCT right by the front doors.
  11. As of now, not yet. There hasn't been any recent numbers coming in.
  12. 2620, 2623: Prevosts from Staten Island has vianova screens
  13. Here's are the active M3s in passenger service on the LIRR, for those wondering.

  14. The streets around Rockefeller Center are back to normal. The M50 makes stops along 49 and 50 Sts between 5th and 6th Avenues with heavy crowds as a common sight between Thanksgiving week of November and before MLK Day of this month (January) a thing in the past until next years holidays.
  15. 3639: retired at JFK, farebox removed with parts.
  16. 2572 out of Staten Island has version 2 screens on-board
  17. 8573, 8589 both with bike racks for the S79-SBS
