Sure about that one? Bus was on the Q50 yesterday and the Bx23 the day before.

 

6759 back at TU from Mannyville.

 

 

ciboii22 wrote he saw 6011 at JFK and I was summarizing.

 

Talking about Bees, the TTMG roster of February 4, 2010 shows two Bees (#135 and #148) at Eastchester, and I've seen videos of #139 on the QBx1 (Q50). Now that seemed interesting:

 

Not my vidoes:

@Goiji: Ah, okay. Those Bees got delivered to ECH, then a few ran like SevenEleven said.

 

Couple other moves: 5635 to Tuskegee (!), 5661 and 5704 at GH from MJQ.

 

 

5635 at Tus! wow....and since when did 5704 go to Quill!?!? Ohh mann when this roster gets updated...the fleet is gonna look 100% noticeablely different

Dunno know if this is a change but yesterday night I thought I saw a Q53 which for one sec looked like a Q52. When I see it, it said Q52, and it was using an NG (4654 to be exact) Is FR Depot open yet for the buses or is all the buses at JFK, because if FR is open, then it could be a loaner

Wow, just saw 5635 a few weeks ago. That got to TU on Nov 30th, 5661 & 5704 went together to GH from Quill on the 30th also.

 

6011?? Lol

 

Yes 6011 from Eastchester...

RTS's. The reason is because they're not doing so well with the Orion V's..So it's basically due to maintenance issues...again, all this comes from B/O's i know...

 

 

wait, ECH is getting the RTS again?

 

so i dont know if this prediction is going to be true but when its 2013,

1) Is LGA getting Orion Vs from BP and RTS from JFK while JFK gets LGA Orion 5 and Hybrids?

2) Are all of Spring Creek Hybrids going to BP?

3) Is it true that LGA will get 2 local routes while the Express is moved to CP?

The MTA has a tendency to lose the stones they write on so things change constantly...

It wasn't sent to other depots they're all across the street from JFK sitting in a lot. Far Rockaway Depot shouldn't be closed too long, It looks bad out there though.

 

 

Spring Creek has the other half of the buses they aren't all in that lot across from JFK, and FR depot is expected to re-open in January
