Bingo.

Also worth mentioning is that they were not paid for with federal funds, so they are able to swap between the two without issue.

Even if they were, the bus is now 17 years old.

note the 3000's are about to retired so busses like 30068 and 3072 transfers to si as they wait for the rest of  there allotment of 50 new buses to arrive.

I don't know. The C40s are getting up there in age, maybe the TA is considering them as an replacement for the C40s? Just *speculation* on my part. 

 

The oldest C40s are 10 years old, then again to me it seems like they can make it to 15 years with ease. Most of them don't even rattle which is amazing for a NYC bus that old, well the SC units don't rattle at least. 

 

 

Ethier way a Gillig on TA property is VERY interesting.

I was about to say why is he posting about a NICE bus in this thread, but Zerega changes everything.
