Aren't #8207 and #8214 at Castleton? They SHOULD be there by now. I know I've seen pictures on THIS site of both buses in service.

 

 

Also, I don't think #8374-8375 have NOT been delivered to Kingsbridge yet. Can someone from Kingsbridge confirm?

 

 

 

Otherwise, very nice update with the roster!

I never heard of them going directly to a depot.  They go to a facility by JFK airport for acceptance before they go to the depot.  They do not go from factory to depot.

 

I thought the new flyers usually go to the JFK Facility and the novas to jersey or Zerega than to respective depots. (unless I'm wrong)

I wonder how many miles those buses put on just making that trip and if any of them have ever been in accidents along the way?

Still waiting on 7120 I believe. Got into an accident delivering to the depot. Correct me if I'm wrong there.

I thought it broke down. I didn't know it was in an accident. Anyways, yeah I figured it didn't arrive yet. Every time I checked BusTime, it never showed. I would remove it from the roster unless someone has proof.

And I'll be doing just that until someone can track it or catch a pic of it.

 

My mistake on #8207 and #8214. They are NOT at Castleton. My apologizes!

No problem, I think Johnathan fixed that.

 

All is updated as of 1:54pm.
