I saw RTS 9618 from FLA @ Micthell Field for driver training i don't know why its there but I saw it when I was on the N27

This is not a transfer or bus move; that bus is used for training classes from Zerega to pass qualification course. 9655 from Flatbush is also used for training purposes. It sounds like the Superintendent took his/her students to Long Island for the day.

Yea they coming in quick , ulmer park has to get them already . They getting 18's & 19's from staten island and those were supposed to be scrapped already a few weeks ago .

 

Are those 3 RTSs at Ulmer stripped of parts?

 

 

Yes they are being scrapped .

Smh , they got all these 18's coming in .

 

Um yeah...enjoy them as THOSE buses are my favorite MCIs. The 2700-2900s...eh but the 1800-2000s are my favorite.

 

1800s, 1900s & 2000s going to Yukon because of the Prevosts going to Yukon, sending out 27s and 2200s to Castleton.

 

1883 at Ulmer Park.

 

 

Yep! On the money. Keep one thing in mind, those 4300s at Ulmer Park COULD be on the move as well. Would not suprise me if they go to Charleston to balance their MCI fleet. Ulmer Park would survive with the 2100s, a few 2800s and 2900s and of course the Prevosts.

There are some good 18's , 1893 is very good it takes off and it rides good its not raggedy or anything its quiet as can be . I like 1888 from cp also that one has a turbo & it takes off ! There are some good 21's , 2194 is my favorite because it has a loud turbo and it takes off and its not raggedy at all . The 28's i cant really say much about them , the 29's there are only 3 or 4 of them . 2901 is good because once you start the bus the fans kick right in and its loud so you can hear them . It'll be sad to see these things go soon .

I hear that those 43s could possibly head to Meredith to knock out the other 2000s, I guess we shall wait and see!
