8766 I think used to be in Manhattan... I noticed theres a little "plane" before the Q72 which is unusual. why is that?

 

Did you ever happen to look at where it was going.....

 

Yes, that bus used to be in Manhattan and then went over to Eastchester for Bx23/QBx1 service but was never re-decal-ed.

8766 was 126th, then ECH, now LGA. It's a full move, like 8750. Also, most of the airport routes have a plane in their programming. The Q3, Q10 and M60 have them as well.

0058 was on the B6 limited today around 3PM, maybe it did one last run on the B6 before it went to Quill? That's great news! As the bus would be really easy to find on the M42, wasted a lot of time looking for this damn 0058 on the B6 since its been there, when I'm not looking for it the !@%%$* pops up, like today, when I didn't have my camara on me, and a few weeks back, I was commuting using the B6 and that 058 was the bus that came.

 

Yeah, this is why i gave up on chasing buses. I've been riding the B6 as often as I can this past few weeks, but no luck getting even a glimpse of it. I'm glad I never bothered trying to wait for it. Horray for the M42!

 

As for LGA getting another 9300... adios :) Such a terrible end for those buses.

8798 was at ECH. I rode on the Bx23 a couple of weeks ago. It's wild that it's back with (MTA) NYC Bus.
