3315 Baisley Park to Far Rockaway.

This unit may be a loan. Several Far Rock express buses are OOS.....

4537: East New York Depot to LaGuardia Depot.. Unit was observed working the Q101 earlier today. Now has transitioned over to the Q69 at this time.

The bus tracking under NYCT as 4537 is an error. 4537 has received LaGuardia depot stickers and has been seen on LaGuardia depot routes.

Nope.

4537 currently on Q24 out of ENY, bus was never moved to LGA...

Can definitely confirm, just saw it a few minutes ago on the Q24 again.

Maybe half of the 8 was peeled off while in the washer and thus you saw the [/b]3[/b]. Could happen.

True, although more often than not they just screw it up. I can't remember it exactly now, but before retirement 6701 or 6710 was labeled as the other bus on top, I think 6730 was screwed up too, and for years they ran out of 7s so buses like 6788 and 6746 ran as 6 88 and 6 46. I think they're much less careful with the aerial numbers than the rest of the bus.

The one that I remember was RTS #3486 with #3684 on the roof. Almost lost it too!

Talking of which, I think it was 6685 was numbered 6885 on its roof....
