A picture would go great with all of this

 

Yes it would, but I was working, so I don't have time to "Wait director, I need a shot of this". Sorry maybe on an visit to Zerega where I am not constrained by time and need of equiptment.

[Grand Concourse]

Lol I wanted too....but I was going to brooklyn....now I'm in bk....gotta wait till I get to s.I to ride that Detroit Diesel 11! Omg! They need to put it on bustime asap!

 

lay off the caffeine.. it's not like they are going anywhere...

For a week or two -- or something... Started service out of Castleton.

Well does this mean Castleton is gonna be a 3G depot now?

[S78 via Hylan]

Assuming the swaps continue, then yes. Castleton will have Orion 5's and Orion 3G's.

I would think 7001 is at Castleton to replace the loss of 8017. Kinda surprised no one thought about that.....Castleton was short 2 buses (8017 and 4899), now they are short 1 bus (4899)

Uhh 4899 is at castleton , well thats what was said from xxgio. 8017 should be back by next year or maybe before.

Damn... I hope the damage wasn't too bad. I saw the wreck on the news and that H2 didn't even look too 'badly damaged'. It is a tank. Edited September 19, 2012 by Grand Concourse

Is 4899 any different? 7001'a HVAC unit is diff and motor sounds a little diff. stronger hum during idle. The shield is diff. as well.
