5786 at Quill. Just seen it on the M34 and it still has the Gun Hill sticker on it

 

5786 has been a Quill for at least a month or so

not anymore as of now

Would be good to see what is supposed to be delivered where...

You know, I have debated whether I should put assignments on the roster or not. I am considering something like that though, when I have the time to work on it.

Also, the Prevosts... what are the assignments?

It would be helpful...

I don't think it's necessary to post the assignments on the roster. We already have a thread for that, which includes the prevost assignments.

The LFS assignments were changed. Shold be around the end of the thread.

Alwasys note that anything can change at anytime.

Well I think it would be helpful to have it on there and have everything in one place for those of us who aren't aware of that page. Quite frankly I didn't know about it and would never look for it.

8372 delivered to KB.

So when are they (KB) going to stick getting rid of those damn Orions?  Seems like they're holding on to them for dear life.  Sick of seeing those worn out buses rolling through Riverdale.

I agree with you 100%. The Orions lived a long life but they have to go.

[Micstromme]

Was he referring to the Vs or the VIIs? The Orion VIIs need to return to Brooklyn, that's for sure.

Also, spotted 4183 on a QV route.

The Vs.

KB is still using them heavily.  They don't have that much space anyway, so they need to start sending them out as the new buses come in.  Aside from them being old, they can't be that environmentally friendly either, so that's yet another reason I'm glad they are going, although not fast enough.

2664 and 2666 in at Castleton

 I haven't seen 8363 in service, my assumption is that some buses are being used for training. It's going to take most of the 83xxs to kill off those 6xxxs so it'll be a couple weeks.

Well I hope to start seeing fewer of those Orions.  In other words, the roster of them at Kingsbridge hasn't decreased at all and they don't have any space to begin with.  They really should claim some more space over there and expand that depot.

Which neighborhoods do you feel "deserve" those buses?

[Kanarsie Guy]

Does MCH have Trippers on the M42? 6771 was on the M42 around 5:30.

It probably was a loaner as MQ is still short on buses.

[T J Trainman]

8409 and 8415 to JAM..

The parking annex should have been built with another floor. MHV was constructed with the structural beams going straight up through the roof. This was so another building could possibly be erected on top of it. I wonder if the KB annex was built inn the same way.
