Damn, thanks for the info! What about 839 and 979? Are these the only ones left at EC grounds? I hope 824 becomes a museum bus for JG

It might be... 839 & 979 are probably history.

[mta B43]

Yea cuz last time I checked the ttmg roster it said that they were System Reserve at Zerega but they were probably there for stripping of usable parts, so thanks!

TU has been loaning a bunch of buses, saw 6780 the other day. Saw a 126 bus out as well (NG), don't think anything permanent is up.

590, 598 to CP

[Calvin]

are these transfers to CP from SC's C40LFs there for just the summer b/c of LGA shortage?

[-CT1660-]

are these transfers to CP from SC's C40LFs there for just the summer b/c of LGA shortage?

According to sources I know, It's in preparation of CP getting the Q29 and the Q72 beginning on Sunday..plans are subject to change though at the last minute.

[Q101viaSteinway]

q29 and q72, where did you hear that

[BreeddekalbL]

q29 and q72, where did you hear that

it was mentioned earlier in the thread that they would be moved to CP to give relief to LGA PER CT1660
