Major Bus Depot Swaps/Moves

Recommended Posts

The swaps continue 3054 is now at the LGA depot. Also, a friend of mine saw 3391 on the QM2A with CP stickers on it.

 

MCI D4500 Cruiser #3054 may not be at LaGuardia for long as that bus COULD be there for maintenance. That information can be found on http://www.ttmg.org fourms.

 

Also (per "TJ Trainman") MCI D4500 Cruiser #3100 (has returned), #3145, #3385, #3388, #3391 and #3459 (Eastchester...REALLY?) are NOW in service at College Point. This will definitely put an end to CNGs on Express routes.

With Bx12 Ochard beach service, all Bx12 local buses to the beach are based out of Kingsbridge depot. All Bx12 Gun Hill buses are ending at Pelham Bay Park.

 

7265, 7271, 9893, 9912, & 9931 are all at the WF depot.

 

Please add 9832 & 9845 to the WF depot.

 

Are these buses in service or are they at the West Farms lot?

I haven't seen any of them yet & wasn't 9845 sent to Gleason from WF not too long ago?

This is getting weird. Please add 7230 to the WF depot. A friend of mine saw it in service on Sunday. I forgot which line.

 

If 7230 was from SC, I don't understand why they can't just send it to JG which would be much closer. If it was from CP, then nm. Also a 7200? Can't they send out more 9800-9900s first?

7230 was from College Point; 7230-37 were at Spring Creek in 2007.

 

As for these buses, the only ones that are unlikely to ever go to NYCT garages are the units at Spring Creek and the high 7240s to 7250s----all of which still have soft seats.

 

BTW, how was 7230 marked---NYC Bus or MTA Bus?

 

Also, the 12 or so MCIs that had been assigned to Quill are all now gone; they should next show up at MTA Bus or head to storage, and my guess would be College Point.

For those O5s: Are they are at WF proper or Bronx Park storage? Keep in mind that buses in that series are being retired.

 

 

Actually, those buses should NOT be retired yet. They have another year. Most of those buses are 1999 models except for 7265 and 7271...those are 1998 models.
