I'm a B/O from MJQ. They're requiring us all to attend a training session for the Novabus LFS HEVs. I saw 9726 parked in the depot last night with a MHV sticker. I don't know if this means we're getting Nova HEVs in the future but yeah

Quill will not be getting them. They are doing this because in the event Quill has to get loaners from MHV due to inclement weather, the ops know how to work them. 

Apparently, 9684 and 9726 are at MJQ

9420, 9422, 9426-9428, 9432, 9597 at MHV. (5 units already have MHV decals)

9420, 9427 currently working on the M4.

It appears a fleet swap going on between both depots.

As someone else already said in the thread, they’re temporary for driver training.

You might see more loans like this during snowstorms in the future. 

The slight problem is that MHV has placed decals on those potential loans. (I know this has been done in the past with them)

However, I think on the original order sheet that MHV was supposed to receive XDE's.  I guess it's a wait and see approach.

Nah only 9420 has an Manhattanville sticker. The rest still have Quill stickers.

Let me correct you on that. All XDE40s at Manhattanville have the Manhattanville Decals just saw all of them.

Are they officially property of Manhattanville?

This is incorrect. 9427 currently running on the M2 still has a Quill sticker. The only XDE I’ve seem with a Manhattanville sticker is 9420. 

9426, have Manhattanville Stickers on them on both sides. 9427 might get them later tonight.

That doesn't mean much. There have been plenty of times in the past where buses got new depot decals only for the bus to be sent back soon afterwards (like not even a day or two later in some cases).

LaGuardia...25

 

Delivery is set to begin in November. Of course...this is "Subject To Change".  Enjoy!
