Weren’t those already reported? I think 6168 is the only one at MQ that isn’t a part of a consecutive batch.

Nah 6126 has been at Hale since it arrived AFAIK

6127 on the other hand went to Quill in January then went back to Hale in August

Bus is back at Fresh Pond.

Not sure what's the status of 4063 and 4406, the other two units that were at Flatbush yesterday.

4063 is back and it’s on the B13. 4066 and 4406 aren’t running right now.

4406 is back at Fresh Pond. It’s on the B26 today

Copy. Looks like all buses were loaned to Flatbush between Yesterday and Today.

8212 and 8224 are on the B68. 8143 also did a trip.

They're loans for the weekend to beef up the B68 during the shutdown in Brooklyn.

[Xcelsior Man]

8300 on the B68 also

They're not loans. Staten Island got called up for extra runs on the B68 for the weekends.

Should we expect to see Staten Island buses on the B68 every weekend for now?

Not too sure honestly. It's possible.

The B68 has been getting screwed over ever since these weekend shutdowns have started. There have been more short turns on the line than usual.

Very good that Staten Island is helping out Gleason since that  project is a long term project to end sometime in late 2021 into early 2022. 

[Cait Sith]

You guys also have to bear in mind that Gleason is also covering the L and 2 shuttles as well, so this could be an on-and-off type of scenario.

[limitednyc]

why mot just put the shuttle buses a long  the f line were they belong?

They had to cancel the Culver link subway shuttles because of the Coronavirus

[MHV9218]

Any time anything interesting like this happens (SI runs on the '68, Bx99 and M99 runs), all I can think is how cool this would have been only a couple years ago. Orion Vs on the B68? Now that would have been a sight. O7 CNGs (and O5 CNGs) running through Manhattan? Also would have been something else. The last times that happened were Hurricane Sandy and the 2010 D shuttles/L supplement, which the Bronx division covered back when their fleet was incredibly diverse.

Just realized I'm in the Transfers thread. Mod can move this to Random Thoughts if it bothers anyone.

It’s actually on the B60 rn so it might still be assigned to Grand Avenue Depot.
