Takuma Ishizeki Posted April 12, 2010 Share #6 Posted April 12, 2010 I heard through the grapevine that someone saw NABI #5508. Can someone confirm this?(NJT)::eek: Yes, it is at Hamilton Garage. The first transit batch of NABI 416 is confirmed to be to Hamilton Garage. When I was on Amtrak train on April 2, 2010, I saw it on 606X, which is operated by Hamilton Garage. Now... I believe suburban batch of NABI is complete with last one to Market St Garage. Order is for 1,145 and not 1,365, as written on NJ Transit's 2007-2009 annual reports. Just remember that.

Takuma Ishizeki Posted April 12, 2010 Share #8 Posted April 12, 2010 hmm, so they changed the numbering... i though the transit models were supposed to be 4101-5170... If I calculate correctly, 895 transit buses are to be delivered. Since the order is for 1,145 (not 1,365) and there are 250 suburban buses delivered, it would be numbered 5501-6395. Do you know what I mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm questioning the existence of 5451-5495, cause well the transits are here... but there's no other place for them to be without anyone finding them... I'm 100% sure that they just simply don't Exsist, but there's an iddi biddy chance that they could be mixed in with the Transits... Sorta like the Metro-Ds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blinkerdoors Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share #10 Posted April 13, 2010 So, the transits are finally here. My prayers have been answered (not the way I hoped) but they're here all the same. I shall look forward to have them fill up the Orange Garage. Are we (NJTransit) supposed to get somemore after this delivery? Let's enjoy them.(NJT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blinkerdoors Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share #11 Posted April 13, 2010 I'm concerned about "Coach USA," which runs bus routes throughout Essex/Union, Passaic, and Bergen (I think) counties. Don't they want a piece of the action also?:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJT's concern right now is to push the Flxibles out, then the 1995-96 NovaRTS (NJT has them all), and then you'll start seeing the 1999-2000 NovaRTS get pushed out, which when the privates start getting them.

Yep. Coach USA in Paramus (Community Coach) which works all the 700 lines (Except 703, 704, 712, and 770) only have 3 Metro D's. Academy Hoboken only has 4 of them. (and Community has the B, or Bergen County Lines now. Academy previously had them.). I doubt Coach or Academy will get any NABI's until maybe 2013 the earliest. They have Nova B's from 1999-2000 and I'm going to bet that they'll push the crap out of them like NJT did with the Flxible Metro B's and right now with the Metro D's. SO much that when garages start replacing their Novas with NABI Transits, Coach might as if they could get some of those buses before they get scrapped. Makes me wonder why they don't get some of the Metro D's that is in the Meadowlands Park and Ride now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes?(NJT) The Novas will remain in service until their replacements start coming in. The 1995-96 Novas will be on their way out after all the Flxible Metro-Ds are gone. The 1999-2000 Novas still have time before they're gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That bus goes into Bayonne, which is not exactly FRIENDLY.....the times I taken the 81 or the 120 bus, those people can be rather ruthless......no thanks. Nova B's for you.
