I must say I'm SHOCKED to see 8025 at Charleston and quite pleased too! But I have to second what someone here asked, why is it at Charleston?

 

We'll find out soon enough, i'd hate to be on one of those on the S74.....

 

3349 at Spring Creek.

9201 is being ripped apart at ECH and 5946,5982 and 3 other I couldn't see. Yeah better get your 5900s Orion Vs photos in. Oh and 176 from BP is there as well.

 

Interesting about 176 being @ ECH

 

I heard a driver on the Q8 say those 59XXs days were VERY numbered.

So I guess they're going to start retiring them.

Regarding the Q-8 driver he/she is 100% correct. From what I have heard. JFK is about to become 100% hybrid. The 3700s from LGA will be making their way to JFK. Replacing the LGA 3700s will be RTSs. Im not sure from which depot(s)? *This is what I have heard. Im not sure how true this is*

That sounds bogus imo.

That's actually quite accurate. The OG's are going to push out the 5900's. LGA is supposed to be getting more RTS, and sending some OG's to JFK well. I can't remember all the details.

 

In short order, JFK will be all hybrids and artics.

My friend who's a bus driver at Charleston just told me that he saw Nova buses 8026-8029 on the West Shore Expressway on Route 441 headed Northbound not too long ago. Maybe they are headed to Castleston.
