This TOPIC is strictly for bus deliveries, moves & transfers.

Any discussion related to these moves should be done in the MTA Bus Operations: Fleets and Depots and Bus - Random Thoughts threads.

I am confused. So the only type of information that belongs to this post is the type: "XXXX (bus number) from Depot A to Depot B"? What about historical information relevant to transfers in general? How is that a "nonsensical drivel"?

 

Read the description of the thread above:

What are the new radios for and why can't they leave Castleton?

It’s the CleverDevices system like what NJT has, just a newer version with radio integration. (Hence new radios)

Castleton is the depot doing the pilot and it will be expanded to the rest of SI and eventually the system.

Is this also the project that will combine NYCT and BC radios?

You mean the building that everyone refuses to work in and is a huge laughingstock lol?

That East New York command center. What a complete waste of resources.. Could of built at least another depot (Staten Island) along with the re-construction of Jamaica Depot at the same time with those resources.. No need for a state of the art command center and meanwhile it's not in full use.. SMH.

😂😂😂 see? THAT would be along the common lines of LOGIC. i mean, how do build a whole new facility from scratch and STILL find a way for it to be botched? imo however, even if they reallocated those resources for a needed SI yard or JA's reconstruction... theyd find a way to eff that up too. you can't make this shit up.

Wasn't that suppose to be the main command center for when MTA Bus becomes absorbed into NYCT?

no. it's supposed to be the main command center for NYCTA/MaBSTOA & MTA Bus when both radio systems (which are currently separate) become fully integrated. this has absolutely no bearing on TA/OA & BC "merging" or OA "absorbing" Bus Company. THAT will not happen for quite awhile. it took approx. 40+ years from the creation of MaBSTOA (1962) to fully "merge" with TA (the creation of the true consolidated seniority list, effective dec. 2, 2004)

Will 9500-09 from Grand head over the ENY as well or those are just the prototypes ? 

Answer: no: it won't move to ENY and not a big difference.

I think 0011-15 are the prototypes: they went back to New Flyer after.

Says who? They're BAE units, but they're are not part of the new order.

Look you'll hear more news on them moving eventually when the time comes it should be soon idk. let's just say I heard the news from a specific person that works with MTA and he always have the right information and was confirmed.  Just know the Allison's are staying in Brooklyn  which makes sense and the BAE's will go to Manhattan  which also makes sense because if I'm correct Brooklyn is getting all the Allison's... which hence would make sense for the BAE's to leave since obviously Manhattan  is getting all the BAE's as well.
