There are only 9 Orion V CNGs left at ECH, all on the scrap side. Eight of them are separated into two groups, with four in each group. There is another one (9865) in-between a bunch of other damaged buses.

 

The buses are placed in this order:

DF (defective):

713, 9980, 7235, 7252

9918, 9934, 714, 9986

 

Scrap:

9865

 

It seems at this point the rumors of 9918 returning are all false. The bus is still in one piece though.

 

9871, 9872 & 9967 are off property. A farewell to my favorite Orion V CNG (9967).

 

Also, all the storage bees at ECH are scrap. They will be moved to the scrap side eventually. The ones currently in service at ECH will stay there.

Excellent report here. Shame about the Bees, but those buses were dying. Wonder if the repaints are getting a new lease on life or just a paintjob.

 

Luckily enough, LGA is still getting its share of the buses. 9889 and 9905 both ran the Q39 this morning.

 

Interestingly enough.....4708 on the Q10.

 

Wonder if that'll get renumbered to a 1000 lol... Bunch of 5400s are all there in their original numbers.
