None of those have actually been delivered. They are still in New Jersey. As I said, they are assigned to Manhattanville, hence the roster update.

6030, 6032: Flatbush to Casey Stengel 

What I don’t get about these summer XD60 moves is why can’t other depots just send buses to LGA for the Q53 instead of doing this 3-4 way swap? I just find it unnecessary for CS to give up a few of their buses just to get replacements from Quill & FB.  Just have Quill & KB send buses to LGA and CS keeps what they have.

You mean FB.

I think part of this has to do with pick scheduling especially at Quill and FB during the summer months.

Quill and FB have less SBS runs during the summer, so they have a high enough spare factor to send buses elsewhere.

Yeah, so why can’t MQ and FB send buses to LG instead of CS doing so?

Because the distance between LG and CS is much, much closer. Buses between those two depots can be swapped much quicker.

CS also has a few extra runs during the summer as well, so they'll need buses to compensate for their losses.

Also anything that was recently  listed as of today from WF Roster  those buses are now back at GH Depot which include the recent long loans which was 4094 and 8351.

Only 4094, 8351 have returned. The artics are still there at West Farms.  5301, 5312-5317 are all now registered to West Farms.

I'm aware of the 53xx still being at WF which is why I didn't mention them. Aside from the 53xx that they still have I was talking about whatever buses they was loaning from GH had all went back last night.
