Kingsbridge Bus Posted December 5, 2009 Share #1 Posted December 5, 2009 This afternoon there was a designline running as a training bus on 127st & Amsterdam Ave. I don't know what was the bus number but the screen said training bus and was stoping on bus stops along Amsterdam Ave. Orion VII NG 3961 & 3964 was also passing by on the M60 in different directions.

mark1447 Posted December 5, 2009 Share #7 Posted December 5, 2009 This was the first time I actually saw one in person. Its cool. My first time was seeing it on the m42 in Sept i think, next to Javit center.. Saw it again a few times on the route, then saw it on the Bx13, tho that was just the b/o having it as Yankees Std.. That was in Washington Hts of course. Then saw it in late nov on the M4 at 110th St/Broadway. Never rode one but i hope too! And the NovaBUS LFS!

aemoreira81 Posted December 5, 2009 Share #9 Posted December 5, 2009 That is bus 1302. Why would AMS have 1302 for training though? Are these buses getting spread around to more garages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
