Few moves of the past few days:

 

5867-5871 delivered to Tuskegee (haven't seen 5866 yet but 5864-5865 are there)

6762 heads to Manhattanville

6766 heads to Tuskegee

 

Most of Tuskegee's buses, save for the earliest 5300s, are now stickered with TG stickers.

 

Latest Mannyville loaners were 9498 yesterday and 8989 today, the latter I rode on the M1 Limited and grabbed a few of shots of which I'll be posting up soon enough.

Welcome back nyctf!!!!! Some news .#1, 9002 is at CP for what ever reason. Its not staying there repaint?. #2 8989 was seen on the M-1 with MHV stickers on it. # 3, 3634 is now at the JFK depot. #4, 9319 is scrap.

 

 

8989 has 126st decals and it is a loaner and not an actual bus staying at MHV. Also spotted that bus yesterday on 5th and 27th on the M1. and welcome back NYCTF

No stickers, I rode that bus and took shots of it (up soon). As I said above, MHV gets an RTS loaner once to twice a day.

 

5864-5871 all at Tuskegee.

Actually Tom, sorry to have snapped at you earlier, I stand corrected.

 

8989 is a Manhattanville bus. No stickers, but it's out of Mannyville now from what I'm told, see how long that's for. Just saw it on the M1 again.

 

On that note 9499 was on loan to Manhattanville today as well, along with 6781. Two RTSes in a day, I like that!

I can't figure out how this new quote system works on my phone but 8989 and 9499 are both at 126th right now. Both drove by my as i was walking to the lunch room.

 

 

9499 was definitely a loaner, that was just a put-in.

 

But from what I had heard, 8989 was staying at Mannyville, having been running on the M1 the past couple days. Guess not. Shame, but they'll probably send out a few RTSes tomorrow as well.

 

It's the quote button on the righthand side of the post, btw.

New loaner of day for Mannyville.. 9494 on the M7.

 

 

Just wondering, when'd you see that? Would love to catch an RTS on the 7.

 

9639 on the M1 today.

 

Just to tally it all up, on different days the past couple weeks 126th has sent 9424, 9427, 9493, 9494, 9498, 9499, 9632, 9639, 8989, and 9216 for service on the M1, M2, M3, and M7 (they also sent 3898-3899 to be transferred). Quill has sent 5243 and 6742 which ran on the M3 and M2. 100th has sent 6762 and 6781, don't remember what lines those hit.
