Thats it!

Well CP still has 7 left even though they are only used on LGA routes to help out the shortage.

[Cait Sith]

Are these for service? So SC gives CP buses SC will be short and CP must give something in return right.

I guess they stopped loaning to JFK if they came back from SC.

Yes and no, yes, these are in service and no, SC is not short.

575 is on the Q35 now, shot 596 pulling Into CP earlier. It's a mess over at LGA.. CP has 2104 and they're taking parts off of it. 9874 is sitting outside idling, but its not listed on the roster so I don't know what they're doing with it.

sc needs about 56 buses so they had 10 extra they were able to spear

Cool, nice to see the c40lf on the line again*. Lol, upgrade over the ex-gL and ex-bl buses.

not a transfer, but 7729 from Westfarms > pending SCRAP...

Nah, that's a C40LF. The NYCT batch are long long gone.

[Grand Concourse]

Oh, mind slip, I keep forgetting the c40lfs took those numbers. Well looks like a chance to see how much the bus leans on the approach to the bridge from the Queens end.

Why so soon?

9034 Back at Ulmer Park again from LG

[T J Trainman]

The 4 at U.P. are most likely for maint.

U.P. is short, 9002's sheet said Pre-Service on it. If LGA took buses from here then this garage needs something in return & I think those buses will probably see service. Lets just wait and see... Really makes no sense to send buses all the way from Queens - U.P. to get worked on, MTA Bus can do the job,, shit send them to CP like they've been doing since Day #1. 9310 went from LGA - CP earlier... CP can fix it. 

[NewFlyer 230]

What is up with all these crazy moves? I never expected a 1999 RTS to ever go to MTA bus, btw 5218 was on the Q23 and I rode it. Why couldn't JFK lose their RTS's to LGA I thought those D60HF's were bumping the 1996 RTS's to other depots such as LGA? What is up with 1999-2000 MCI's going to CP don't they have a whole bunch of MCI's as it is? I guessing since 590-599 and 600-606 returned to CP I'm guessing that they are there because for services increases or maybe a line from LGA is finally being moved to CP.

Why so soon?

It ran over something that punched through the floor and bent one of the main beams in the process. They are evaluating weather they can save it or not
