Since Gun Hill has XD40s now, Flatbush will also get some Jamaica XD40s as well.

7318: Flatbush to Ulmer Park.

A few of the ones I saw had them but a few still had the Jamaica stickers.

As of this morning, #7493 still had Jamaica logos on it (both sides) while on the Bx34.

That unit is a loan along with 7623 which also went to UP..

Refresh: 7484-7506, *7546-7547, 7549 (26) are at Gun Hill while 7694-7696, 7699-7700 [5] are at Flatbush (spotted today outside the yard)

Jamaica still have 7507, 7548, 7550-7551, *7568-7571, 7701-7705, 7753-7778, 7835-7838 (43 XD-40s) 

---------

Also: 4126, 4252 are in-service at Quill. However, they will be at Manhattanville by the next day. Noted from a bus operator out of Quill with friendly conversation that once the 2 pull-in, they will be moved to MHV base and in result, Quill will no longer have the Next Gens in depot local use.

Added from edit, just to keep count. 4126, 4252 was originally thought as a mistake move but approved by bus op with kind words

And just like that, Quill's 15 year era of NGs will come to a close.

4126, 4252: Michael J Quill now at Manhattanville. These 2 are officially parked with green light confirmed from above post being moved last night. No more NGs in-service at both Quill and MCH also to 100 St

It has not been delivered. This thread is for deliveries, moves, and transfers.

[RSMG106]

8898 is currently in Secaucus, New Jersey.

1542 is also in Secaucus, New Jersey. Once it moves from there, it will go to LaGuardia.

7623 was sent to ULPK for repairs, bus has been since sent back to FLAT

4126 & 4252 pending scrap.

7388 not moved and still assigned to STENG where it will remain.

7623 was loaned to Ulmer Park. It ran on some of their routes such as the B3 and B36. 7318 was also sent to Ulmer Park. Is that one back at Flatbush too?

7388 is running on the B41, unless someone can verify its a different bus out there.

Thanks. From what I’ve seen in past years, this is usually the time we’d see some bustime oddities so all users need to double-check before jumping to the forum to list the bustime view. Please do not take it as an attack as I’ve jumped onto the same trap multiple times.

7965: was delivered, although, it's now in passenger service at Flatbush. 

* Flatbush Depot is now finished with their 2022 XD-40 order, 7930-7969. Also, 7852 and 7853 are what's left for Fresh Pond then it'll be a wrap for the 2022 order. 

Edited February 13, 2023 by Calvin
7965 wasn't noticed last month until recently. 7969 arrived first then 7965

[Ultimategamer12c]

7854 is delivered to FP Depot.
