Kingsbridge Bus Posted June 24, 2010 Share #801 Posted June 24, 2010 Also, 1078 & 1087 are now in service at the WF depot 1087 was NIS. 1078 was on the Bx-36. 2 more Artics for WF 1083 & 1084. It's true, I just saw 1085 on the Bx36 LTD with 126st stickers, akamtabx36 spotted 1087 too, this is probably for the artics taking over the Bx15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M. Friday 1986 Posted June 25, 2010 Share #803 Posted June 25, 2010 1864 is now at the CP depot. Also, 7265, 7271, 9893, 9912, & 9931 are all at the WF depot. Pretty cool. Interesting I've seen lots of the 9800-series O5 CNGs and the 8900-series NovaBuses while I'm at work most of the day...but I've yet to see these 7200s and 9900s running. -MF'86 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lennyj17 Posted June 25, 2010 Share #806 Posted June 25, 2010 So it seems like 126 1000-series Artics are going to WF and the GH 1000-series will go to BP/JFK once they're Overhauled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who said they are being overhauled? Half of that fleet from Gun Hill have been stripped (so I was told). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The TransitMan Posted June 26, 2010 Share #808 Posted June 26, 2010 Per "Bee Flexible #823", Orion 07.501 Low Floor Hybrid #6742 (the straight blue line Hybrid) was spotted on the Q32 with MJQ stickers on it. Here we go with the movements! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Trainman Posted June 26, 2010 Share #809 Posted June 26, 2010 Please add 1045, 1082, & 1089 to the WF depot. Also, please add 144 to the LGA depot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainspot12 Posted June 26, 2010 Author Share #810 Posted June 26, 2010 5964 is back at Far Rockaway (on the Q35 5:26PM to Rockaway Park). There could possibly be more O-5s over there in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainspot12 Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share #812 Posted June 27, 2010 But JFK & FR interline buses on routes FR and JFK are not interlined during the weekends. They're only interlined during weekdays and they have been talking about balancing the fleet at Far Rockaway due to the fact that Far Rockaway has the newest fleet (why they want to balance it IDK).

KNIGHTRIDER3:16 Posted June 27, 2010 Share #814 Posted June 27, 2010 I was driving passed my Depot before and Something caught my Eye ,It was A NG ,I'll look into it tomorrow ,Those have never been in there before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is there probably for training purposes as you are suppose to be getting NG CNGs soon. Whether it is a Hybrid or a CNG from LI Bus, you need to be trained on it.

RokuSix Posted June 27, 2010 Share #816 Posted June 27, 2010 Any word on how soon College Point will be getting NG CNGs? Also, any news regarding Eastchester? Some of those RTSes don't look or feel so good. I hope they do bring back the Orion Vs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Trainman Posted June 27, 2010 Share #817 Posted June 27, 2010 Please add 1019 & 1021 to the WF depot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainspot12 Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share #818 Posted June 27, 2010 I can safely say that 5964 is at Far Rockaway (rode it on the Q35, the last run of the day the 5:10PM to Rockaway Park). That bus will go back to the depot and get it's sticker change and rest for the night. It should be on the Q22 tomorrow (however no guarantees of whether that will happen). Also there will be more Orion Vs will be on the way to Far Rockaway as they increased the Q22, and Q35. Pictures and audio of 5964 (as well as other shots) will come as soon as possible.

Kingsbridge Bus Posted June 28, 2010 Share #823 Posted June 28, 2010 9846 & 9903 are in West Farms service There are no more RTS in West Farms depot, I have not seen one all day after traveling around the Bronx & i did not see any after passing by West Farms depot. As a replacement, West Farms is getting more Orion V CNG's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q101viaSteinway Posted June 28, 2010 Share #824 Posted June 28, 2010 Yeah your probably right. Damn I'm starting to act like a foamer. That has to change fast. What is foamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainspot12 Posted June 28, 2010 Author Share #825 Posted June 28, 2010 What is foamer Not to offend anybody, but a foamer is someone who is obsessed with something until they will push people out of the way and run for the object they are obsessed with and they will stop at nothing to see or get it (ex-Bus Foamer, Train Foamer, I think you get the picture). But enough being off topic, all RTS and 1996 Orion V at West Farms should be removed from service (if there's still some in service, they will be pulled shortly) as the New Flyer Artics and Orion V CNGs have replaced them.
