FR now has ##137, #141, #149, and #163, and also has #6027.

 

I gloss through all these numbers, and missed this, until I happened to notice it in the roster directly.

So they finally allowed a 1998-9 class bus into MTAB! It seems like they're holding off on the corresponding RTS's.

Why'd they allow this one to go over? Because they're out of 1996 Orions? (Now that I think of it, did any of those ever go over to MTAB? I haven't followed the Orions as much as the RTS, because my area was always strictly RTS when it comes to high floors).

Wildest thing! I was referring to 6027 this morning (the lone 1999 Orion at JFK), and guess what I saw at 165 Term. on the Q6 today!

 

(Waiting for the N24 to East Meadow to see the RXR tree, and apparently, the first one was pulled for some bad brakes, and they just dropped the interval! I guess they could get away with it, since that branch of the line is more lightly ridden).

Well you still got them Orions out at Eastchester for the Bx23/Q50, and they have about 20 of them
