8315 is still in Manhattan as we speak, currently on the M50 if anyone wants to get a shot of it before it goes back.

8369-8373 have returned back to Kingsbridge depot from Castelton. These buses are currently working on Kingsbridge routes as of this afternoon.

(disregard this post, I'm aware it's already been reported... didn't see the previous message until after I hit reply... anyways, moving on...)

As far as I know I don’t think they are trained to drive Xcelciors

As for 9578, that bus belongs to Hale

Very good signs of these guys returning to the road

Is at Manhattanville I just saw it today. It’s just sitting at the lot.

The XDEs are being cycled around to get their door fixes as well.

Damn. I had 8369 on the hawk last night.

Question to that: Are the ENY units being fixed in-house at CMF and will this be the same issue for Grand Ave units as they get delivered and worked at their CMF area?

Disregard previous question on 4374.

They might have had looked into the OOS buses at Quill and Hale with New Flyer and got it sorted out with the incoming units.

Is there confirmation that 4374 has been re-activated from the scrap area back to Kingsbridge?

4374 was never sent to scrap. It was still at KB this whole time. The units that were sent to scrap were 4369 & 4372.

Honestly, I thought it did with 4369 and 4372. Appreciate the clarification @Kingsbridgeviewer382

Small update: 8044 has returned to Jamaica from Queens Village

4369 is being used for FDNY purposes, so it's not at scrap

8313 and 8317 still in service at Quill as of today, but generally the SI fleet seems to be gone. Quill's OGs are still out and about (including 6737, which I remember there was some doubt about). The Quill loans are still at Tuskegee, and MV still has a mess of other buses with few to no hybrids running regular service. I don't really understand the math here, returning the LFSes without returning the hybrids, but DOB must have something in mind.

The Yukon loans are still at Quill. All 5 were in service at some point this morning.

Some of the XDEs being delivered to Quill likely helped those LFSs return to Castleton, which in turn freed up 8369-73 to head back to Kingsbridge
