Not yet. 101 is the only one left at Baisley Park in service.

 

133, 164, 174, 180, 183, 184 are still in service at Eastchester (Bx23/Q50)

 

Ok, here is an update regarding the Orion V scrappers at GA. I have the following listed:  6097, 6169, 6194, 6280, 6285, 6289, 6292, 6298,  6300, 6312. 

Why are they getting rid of those when there are still even older [second hand] units around?

7623 is on the B8 tonight in Brownsville.

Looks like some of the 7600s is coming back to JG. I remember one time they had 7560-7656 and 2 ZF'S 7733 and 7790. It would be so cool if JG got some ZF'S as well but that could be wishful thinking

Not yet, it seems ENY is sending some 5000s to FB to kick out the 9600s to GA and that would retire most if not all of GAs Orion Vs.

It would be cool if ENY got sum RTS or Orions in return aside from the delievery of the XD40s. They should get those buses back and let them retire at where they started but it is what it is

Grand Avenue, for a few months, is going to have one of the oldest fleets I've ever heard of an NYCT (non-PBL) depot having. The O5s were actually younger than the 9600s--the vast majority of the fleet will now be 17-year old buses, with the earliest ones close to 18. Historic!

 Ulmer Park has the biggest amount of RTS (mostly 1997-98) but,

 

Grand Av, too is going to be like before RTS and Next Gens except amount differences, 80-85 RTS and 60 Next Gens with 90% (110) RTS and 10% (40) Next Gens.

Ulmer Park should've sent the ZF'S to Flatbush or the 1997s to ENY or MTA Bus
