I wouldn’t use the word “swap” unless East New York gives back.

Looks like College Point now has a wrapped driverside bus now with 232..

Just saw 231 in service on Saturday morning before being moved.

That's a fresh move actually. That was a LaGuardia unit. It was on the Q47 last night.

Those buses haven't hit service yet. They're probably getting prepped for service.

CP has 5 of their C40LFs at Grand Avenue CMF, with others receiving routine maintenance at the depot.

I was about to ask what the heck happened to 6268 until I saw that it went back to the vendor. Oh lord, I wonder what happened with it.

Is the MTA planning on converting the B46 SBS to articulated service and move 7615-48 and 7650-2 to local service? I would presume that Flatbush has more than enough blue-and-yellow buses for the B44 SBS.

7650 is already unwrapped and in local service.
