Kingsbridge Bus Posted July 8, 2010 Share #251 Posted July 8, 2010 I noticed the LFSA 1262 has add's on the back of it, is this temporary because I noticed that Bx12 SBS buses don't have add's on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know one of the LFSAs that had a back ad on them. Cait Sith has a video of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen the put ads on a SBS bus before. Why mess up that pristine wrap with an ad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aemoreira81 Posted July 13, 2010 Share #254 Posted July 13, 2010 I've never seen the put ads on a SBS bus before. Why mess up that pristine wrap with an ad. Those buses with ads won't be SBS until October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East New York Posted July 26, 2010 Share #255 Posted July 26, 2010 Well, it's about that time. In the coming weeks, NovaBUS will build an LFS diesel demo for MTA. Why this bus will not be a hybrid is a mystery to me. But either way, I am interested in seeing what this bus will look like in full MTA specs and colors. I wonder which depot will test it out first?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be #0056 2,because stated that hybrids cost too much to maintain so there going back to standard 40ft clean deisle and CNG future orders. 3,I'm not sure but i hope FP and or BP depots.

Infamous85 Posted July 28, 2010 Share #258 Posted July 28, 2010 I think UP should have the priority. Then other depots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aemoreira81 Posted July 28, 2010 Share #261 Posted July 28, 2010 I think that Ulmer Park and Fresh Pond, along with Flatbush and Queens Village, should be at the top of the list, especially Ulmer Park which has not gotten a new bus in 14 years.

Agreed! I think you mean "which has not gotten a new local bus in 14 years". The MCIs came in fairly recently, but the RTSs are just OLD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to disagree on the Flatbush part since they just not NGs not too long ago. Fresh Pond last got new buses in 2005 with the OG's (the original number of them there were cut in half when Grand Av took them, then was again transferred to ENY) but the majority of the RTS's there are from 1996 (8800's, 8900's, 9100's)...Queens Village got buses back in 2003-2004 with their OG's. Agreed! I think you mean "which has not gotten a new local bus in 14 years". The MCIs came in fairly recently, but the RTSs are just OLD. IMO, they should be at the top of the list, although they got (used) buses from 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanarsie Guy Posted July 29, 2010 Share #265 Posted July 29, 2010 UP should get a good chuck of Nova LFS or D40LF since they might now have a chance. FP lost most it newer buses to GA but they kan step it up.QV should get some or send some to SI displace some 1999 ORION. To maybe WF,QV or CS or storage maybe even MTA BUS.

R32 3838 Posted August 2, 2010 Share #266 Posted August 2, 2010 If The Next (option order) Nova LFSA is ordered they will go to bus, Baisley Park and JFK will get them, its in the capital plan 2010-2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see them getting DE40LF's one day, but I don't see the TA placing any order for NFI diesels. But who knows. Strange things have been going on lately. I would love to know where the incoming LFS will go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJQ Posted August 3, 2010 Share #268 Posted August 3, 2010 Well this is the first I've heard about any new Nova's...well Nova's period (minus the RTS). Well whatever depots that still have 94-96 buses should get something new imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRG Posted August 19, 2010 Share #272 Posted August 19, 2010 IMHO, Ulmer Park needs new buses more than FP does. Meh...send them to Yukon. I'd rather ride an LFS than a NG heading home on the S79. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The LFS is the only new bus model that I like. The NG order can kick rocks. LFS and Orion 5s for life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That only depends on whether or not the brakes are new. Keep in mind that the RTS is heavy, and hard on brakes. But the NG's can get loud too. It all depends on how long maintenance keeps an old set on before they replace them. But I could never ever get tired of riding the RTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
