Ok It "looks like" BP is getting the 3600s and 3610s while JFK is getting the 3620s and the 3630s kind of. LGA is probably going to lose 3602-3610 with 3632 and 3635 again due to high mileage. 3717-3740 are next to leave again due to high milage. From what I have understood LGA is supposed to get all of JFKs RTS. And now ECH storage might be in the mix as well. *As always subject to change etc*.

3571-3599 are Stay at LGA or going to BP or JFK

3600-3610 from LGA to BP

3611-3619 from SC to BP

3620-3631 from SC to JFK

3632, 3635 from LGA to JFK

3638-3639 still at BP are going to JFK

3717-3740 are stay at LGA or going to BP

 

Please pardon my venting here: Really? Says who? I was SPECULATING and its partially becoming true. 3600 is at BP yes 3601 M.I.A. 3602-3610 have yet to go to BP or JFK Im not sure if they will or not. 3611-3619 and 3623 are at BP. 3620, 3622, 3624, 3625, 3627, 3629, 3630 is O/S till further notice. 3631? <---- They might go to BP or be split. 3638/3639 we'll see. 3717-3721,3723-3740 we'll see. Also, LGA has 49 MCIs.

Can you please update us as to what are the MCI numbers that went to YUK and also what QV is getting in return.

 

4707 is now longer in Quill. I saw it in the scrap/storage lot at West Farms. Still has Quill stickers though.

 

I suspect that the re-numbered 1300's may have been taken from WF Storage. There are quite a few artics missing from there.

@Q43LTD.... IMO in all honesty they really should have sent MTAB the EoL Artics

 

BP could have got those instead of the Bee's and JFK could have gotten then instead of RTS

That whole batch of Bee's could have went to LGA.... NYCT could have kept some 96 Novas in storage

Whatever OG Hybrids got that displaced could have filled the slack wherever needed...

Still making LGA the MTAB dumping grounds with Bee's Novas and NG's

BP would have OG Hybrids and Artics

JFK would have OG Hybrids NG's and Artics

IMO I'm just saying

They probably painted it at quill...gotta put that paint booth to use somehow

 

 

Just saw the bus myself, no new paint there, just missing ads since they took them off at Easchester.

 

Not sure if reported, 5671 and 5704 both at Quill.
