4119, 4278, 4601 are not daily loans. They are most likely long term loans.

CNG depots are not going to add standard diesel buses to the permanent fleet.

As I have stated long term loans. They aren't the same as the daily LGA loans CP receives. 4119, 4278, 4601 have been at the depot for more than a week now hence why I say long-term loan so as it is not to be confused with the daily LGA short-term loans.

This is more akin to the long-term loans Tuskegee Airmen have from other Bronx and Manhattan depots.

But they are loans, not transfers.

I guess the assignment has been changed. 9275 would also go to LaGuardia.

Assignments (Subject to change):

LaGuardia: 9272-9328 (57)

JFK: 9329-9353 (25)

It was only a loan. Bus was sent back to Far Rock yesterday.

5313 from West Farms has been at Tuskegee Airmen since January 16th. This means it is a confirmed transfer.

Some West Farms units stick around for a month or two. Its happened often with other units from that depot so I wouldn’t go labeling this a transfer yet.

9536 has been at Fresh Pond for at least a couple days now.

[MTAFoamer]

4278 has received CP stickers, this bus is likely a long term transfer to CP from LGA (This is NOT my picture)

Just spotted 4557 on the Q65 (at Parsons Blvd) heading towards Jamaica-AirTrain.

 

***UPDATE: Was told that this...like #4278...is now a College Point bus***

Is 4119 still at CP? I just saw it yesterday afternoon on the Q25/Q34.

It is shocking to see hybrids assigned to CP.

I understand the MTA has a system in place with how buses get moved/retired but I wish they’d finish BP’s order. 
However I am happy to see LGA getting their new buses now!

Given the fact that it has a College Point sticker, it looks like 4278 will be at College Point for a good while, we don’t exactly know when 4278 will return to LaGuardia.

Oh okay thanks but, for all we know, it could even be there until it retires.

since we are on the topic of 4278. It may make trips to LaGuardia for refueling incase it needs it in order to keep running.

Pretty sure CP can do that in-house. People seem to forget they have their own fleet of DIESEL coaches that they refuel there. Anyone can feel free to correct this.
