Bracamonte Posted October 24, 2009 Share #1 Posted October 24, 2009 7176, 7178, 7181, and 7183 are the four ex-Triboro RTS's still remaining. Ride them as soon as you can. 7180 and 7182 had recently met their fates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken S. Posted October 24, 2009 Share #2 Posted October 24, 2009 7181 in Woodside on Thursday working the Q53. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32 3348 Posted October 25, 2009 Share #3 Posted October 25, 2009 Here's a picture I took back in January, of 7183: BTW, according to TTMG, 7176 was sent to ECH for scrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted October 25, 2009 Share #4 Posted October 25, 2009 This is a total shame. As for JFK's 5926, I hope they preserve that bus. If it survived Green Lines, it deserves to be saved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted October 25, 2009 Share #6 Posted October 25, 2009 No offense, but I'm not too familiar with the ex-TBC buses compared to the ex-Green line ones. Q35 is my 'home line' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Trainman Posted October 25, 2009 Share #7 Posted October 25, 2009 7176 is gone as well. Te following 4 are still around but their time is extremely short:7178, 7179, 7181, & 7183. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTS CNG Command Posted October 25, 2009 Share #8 Posted October 25, 2009 Sad to see the Triboro RTSs being scrapped. And I only saw 7180 about a month ago at Jackson Heights. (It wasn't in service, and it was far away, but I did get a good shot.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bracamonte Posted October 25, 2009 Author Share #9 Posted October 25, 2009 7176 is gone as well. Te following 4 are still around but their time is extremely short:7178, 7179, 7181, & 7183. I thought 7179 was already scrapped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ride them as soon as you can. 7180 and 7182 had recently met their fates. I saw 7182 on a deadhead to LaGuardia Depot yesterday but it was not in service. Or, was it not. I definitely saw a 718x bus.

R32 3348 Posted October 27, 2009 Share #14 Posted October 27, 2009 It was probably 7183 then. Today I was walking to school and I saw 7178 along 37th Ave., heading for the BQE. Buses usually take that route from the Jackson Heights bus terminal to deadhead to LGA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q25toJamaica Posted October 27, 2009 Share #15 Posted October 27, 2009 Whys 7178 have to be one of the last, that bus is UGLY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q101viaSteinway Posted October 27, 2009 Share #16 Posted October 27, 2009 Whys 7178 have to be one of the last, that bus is UGLY At least it is a memory of Triboro. Before long you will have all MTA NYCT buses and no variation as to its history except for what depot it came from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
