Been there for a couple of days now. It hasn't hit service as of yet though.

Good ol' Cummins.

[T J Trainman]

Same as the other XDs?

[Kingsbridgeviewer382]

So for the moment 4970, 4976 & 4977 are indeed at West Farms, two on the Bx36 and one on the Bx27.

Mother of God, just checked in on the Bx36 and that RTS is there, but man oh, man, there are 41 buses on the Bx36?

[MTA Bus]

4918 & 8852 GA to JA.

5264, 5265 @ CS.

 

GA has no more 99 RTS.

WF has 4968, 4970, 4973, 4974, 4975, 4976, & 4977.

Add #4974! It's on the Bx36 to G.W. Bridge. No RTS on the Bx27 as of now.

 

4968 GA to WF. Currently on the Bx33.

Still there on the Bx33.

WF has more 99 loaners than GA had..

WF is short. That's why they have the loaners now.

[Thekilomoney11]

4975 is now on the bx17

[MHV9218]

WF is short. That's why they have the loaners now.

Generally speaking, sequentially-numbered transfers are more than loaners. Not clear how long they'll last, but "loans" are day-week long things. These buses have stickers and all.

[Kingsbridgeviewer382]

4933 & 9190 back at Jamaica.

4934, 4937, 4938 at East New York.

From what I've heard, WF was short because extra runs were added on certain lines, so they need the 10 RTSs.

[Cait Sith]

5265 and 5266 at Casey Stengel with decals. In service on the Q44.

[Orion VII 4 Life]

5264 at CS as well and in service on the 44.

[B36 Via Ave U]

Don't know if this bus has been there or not but 8942 is on the B82 LTD right now.

[Kingsbridgeviewer382]

That's kinda odd since it was at LaGuardia. Guess ENY needed buses to cover up the lost 4900's. 8941 also ended up at ENY, currently on the B45.

 

And what's up with Casey Stengel getting some 5200's from Quill?

Lotta new shit to ENY:

 

8832 from GA

8866, 4934, 4937-4938 from JA

8941-8942, 8948 from LGA

 

Few days ago 8845 went LGA to JA, too. Obviously 8852 from GA as posted, too.

4934, 4937, and 4938 came from Ulmer Park actually.

Whoops, you're right. Just saw the 4900s and thought Jamaica. Mistake there, but everything else happened.
