Right now those 2 buses are registered to Quill. 

For those keeping score. Yukon NG’s left for pending transfer to mainland: 4251, 4265, 4272, 4276, 4012, 4674. 

At least 2 of those most likely will stay. Yukon is a 7 day training depot and the NG is the standard training bus. They have to have at least 2 for that purpose.

That is correct. Appreciate the clarification. To my knowledge it's either Day 7 or Day 8 new ops complete the course at Yukon , I think 4674 and 4012 may end up staying while the rest will go elsewhere.

4012 and 4674 at MV finally. There are no more blue and white NGs left on the island now unless they unwrapped a few 4200s

Apparently Yukon has to keep 2 NG’s (Training) unless they wont be a training depot anymore if the TA wants all NG’s off the island.

Honestly stupid imo. Put all the NGs in the mainland and call it a day.

I know what you mean. @Novabus 5000 and @Orion6025 both explained it clear to me that Yukon is indeed a 7 day training depot and that NG’s are standard for training at Yukon. 

Now, unless that changes and they swipe 2 3G’s from CAS than I can see a full displacement of all NG’s out of YUK. However, the probability of that happening is a bit slim for the 3G’s to leave CAS for YUK.

7045 was on the S79 +SBS+ two days ago, so I wouldn't throw it out the window.

A lot of 3Gs have been on Yukon routes lately. Wonder if Yukon is having a shortage because they are currently letting NGs out faster than the LFS' can come in.

I think there was a mention by @SevenEleven that CAS and CHA may jump in to help YUK with the S79SBS+ or any other local route within the island as supplement service (please correct me please Seven if I’m saying this incorrectly) 

So that might be the reason you saw 7045 on the 79.

Open trips are able to be covered by all depots here. I did the first half of the 74 hawk last week. (With a new Nova at that)
