  1. 2769: Charleston Prevost has version 2, vianova screens. Express buses are squared shaped.
  2. Two local buses that has version 2, vianova screens and one express bus: 4736: CS white XD-60 and 7153 XD-40 that's currently at ENY. Also, 2655: Prevost out of Castleton.
  3. 3888: returned to passenger service after two months of yard duty. Although, this unit rotates between passenger service of at the yard. This unit was never mentioned as retired to be clear of. Although, 3633 and 3663: these old Gens are now retired stripped off the OMNY and Farebox.
  4. Couple of notes to the first page update: * 3007 and 3048 at CP are still active. 3356 at Yonkers is active They only went through being repaired. 3431 at Eastchester -> retired from passenger service that was reflected from recent first page update but used for parts for the rest of their MCI fleet. The bolded unit, 3695 had repairs that looked like it was removed in my fault. Although, parts were added for it to be back in-service. In this case, 3621 is retired (meant to clarify this unit). Just now, the farebox and OMNY are gone. * 3888: removed from passenger service but converted to a yard unit (transitioned to yard duty) at JFK (driver partition roped between the passenger walkway) . Its parked and is in indication (like an object) between the units needing/pending major repairs or is retired and the ones that are active and parked for the day or next day or so.
  5. With 9010 and 9031 now present at JFK, 4395: before at Baisley Park now transferred, present and assigned to JFK/FR
  6. It's said that ridership is at pre-pandemic level, but the respect to others hasn't changed. For now, there's courtesy campaigns on their digital ads.
  7. I wonder what ever happened to the vintage buses that used to make stops along 42 St with the M42 during the holiday seasons. This was in my mind as just now, the city is starting to put decorations in prep for December and the tree by Rockefeller Center.
  8. 8992: delivered and present at Baisley Park with stickers. Farebox and OMNY ready for service.
  9. They can… If you walk on a public sidewalk passing by through the gates.
  10. These said hybrid units are also retired just now as they are waiting for 2 Novas, 9010 and 9031 to be delivered to JFK. 3653 and 3675: today, 11/5, both units Farebox and OMNY are gone.
  11. 4755: XD-60 B1 at U.P has version 2: vianova screens on-board
  12. 3537: JFK retired from service recently along with 3694 and 3695. This old hybrid has the farebox, radio and OMNY taken out while the front door is fully opened.
  13. 3694: Old Generation unit that moved from Baisley Park a while back now retired at JFK. No OMNY and Farebox today as seen this week. 3695: JFK unit old Gen as well retired just now because the Farebox and OMNY has been removed by MTA crew seen in person passing on the way to clock in for work
  14. I rode the BM3 today from Avenue X/Ocean Av up to Downtown Manhattan-WTC due to the not fully running getting the TOMC at South Ferry. While going up to Cortelyou Road, almost all the rows has one person occupied while leaving E 7 St, adding 8 passengers, the Express bus is almost full.
  15. The user is busy on the outside. It’ll be updated by the end or middle of this month or so. But, for now, listed units are noted to him.
  16. 3644 and 3654: JFK/FR old Gen hybrids now retired because the Farebox and OMNY cut off.
  17. Forgot to add, with the holidays approaching, 8768-8772 sports the Starbucks wrap to promote the festivities till the New Year 2024 or beyond.
  18. Just seen 8497-8500 and 8401-8404 on the train. The outside looks very different compared to last month with the steel dust shown.
  19. https://www.fox5ny.com/news/second-avenue-subway-harlem-extension?utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwAR1JOGa1XAwoXQ7cBLHVo7y_S9wKsRNR0qZjgvDtJdqoqh3QNQ_CVKscOb4 A note to 96 St-2 Av on the line. The extension is longer to be expected.
  20. Seems that in a guess 3888 at JFK Depot is in storage outside of the depot. Hasn't been used one month parked at the same spot day and night with the farebox still attached. It may or may not be used or awaiting maintenance but that's to be determined.
