  1. 9282: incoming XD-40 to be delivered to LaGuardia Depot
  2. That part of the consist was involved of the 96 St derailment around early January. It didn’t suffer much damage but used for parts, the other 3 cars may have that effect. 2176 suffered heavy damage back then.
  3. trains are bypassing Mount Eden Av in both directions due to a shooting that happened at the northbound platform. Northbound, the will run express from 149 St-Grand Concourse up to Burnside Av.
  4. Recently, around 5:20 PM, there was a shooting at a train station, Mount Eden Av. Both sides will have trains skipping this station. Thoughts and prayers to those at or passed that station, 6 people were injured: one was killed and five wounded. https://abcnews.go.com/US/6-shot-bronx-subway-station-sources/story?id=107171649https%3A%2F%2Fabcnews.go.com%2FUS%2F6-shot-bronx-subway-station-sources%2Fstory%3Fid%3D107171649&fbclid=IwAR2vzGFaJM6EcKsSI3XO9GGsYuaytmKpVqLXOOlJ03HSC4QrqwIrGbPzN5A
  5. 3000: CP saved for the museum fleet, for the past question if it's retired (only from passenger use). It was decided that it will not be scrapped but being alongside 2185 for MCIs in display.
  6. 9068, 9083 and 9086: incoming Novas being delivered to JFK
  7. That's true. It's not like the Franklin Av and 42 St that has its own car numbers and arrangement. The Rockaway Park is whatever's leftover from the train pool.
  8. I noticed the uses all the R211Ts in-service at once. But, I'm thinking they are at sleep overnight. Usually, with the subway, they'll have like at least 3-6 trains parked at the yard as spares. But not with this class type. Even their own R179s, they have 3 trains as spares.
  9. Yes, but there’s a station restriction to have certain doors open at Clifton. Hence how they are open and close.
  10. It does ruin the fun going out looking for the units yourself to collect evidence as a source (that’s to moves that are confirmed) and lazy without effort. And a shortcut way that leads to dead ends. That’s just my thought. The tracker is okay only if you’re going to school, a place to be or work from A to B looking to see if your bus is coming or not, but not as officially a straight point as it’s finished from what I’ve learned. Also, there are some buses that’s in service but has the tracker broken. Basically, seeing it is better than believing it but that’s my take.
  11. 4081: Eastchester from passenger service to JFK now to Eastchester for scrap. All parts were removed and is currently hooked into a tow truck to the scrap lot. * Said bus did enter service at JFK. However, it’s no longer repairable and not able to run properly so, it’s put to as retired from service.
  12. Towed out of the depot at 5 AM actually. Farebox pulled out yesterday night.
  13. Also, with the 2008 Next Gens being retired at JFK, there are units along with the 2009 units that has version 3, cleverdevice screens. I wonder if they can still be transferrable to other buses. I have yet to see the 4800s in Brooklyn (4810-4899) and the upper 8000 Novas in Queens (8061-8089) with the screens by the rear door.
  14. Swing (break room) or indicator bus at JFK. Indicator is like a obstacle to tell that it's around one of the buses that are retired from service not to use.
  15. 4278 has College Point stickers. They are at College Point, however, the other 2 with it goes to LGA for maintenance.
  16. 42, as of now: 9016 and 9027 have arrived at JFK Depot with fareboxes being placed on.
  17. 15 units. In Queens, it’s best to see them at Jamaica Av by the LIRR terminal during the rush hours.
  18. 3806, 3822: version 3, cleverdevice screens are no longer active on the said units.
  19. 3710: JFK retired to scrap for Eastchester And above said units are still at JFK but used for parts for the remainder of the old gens running in service for now.
  20. They are still sitting at the depot but not towed yet. Only 3712, 3753 and 3816 were towed today. 3759, 3806, 3984: now retired at JFK. But, not towed yet to ECH
  21. 2756: Only 2016 unit at Meredith has version 2 screens Also, 2679 at Yukon has V2 screens
  22. 2789: Charleston, also at Ulmer Park before to Yukon. It also has Yukon stickers on the quality control bus placement both sides.
  23. 3814, 3816: Version 3, Cleverdevice screens are disabled and no longer in use.
