9643 is at Flatbush... was seen on the B41 on Friday and today by yours truly. I wonder if this came with 9644-9646 or it came later? Friday was the first time I seen this bus down here in BK. 8752 also made it to service, I seen it on the B44 on friday... it was spotted in the sickbay @ Flatbush these past few days by others but shes finally in service...

 

There also was a OG on the B103 today with a black-back, I think this is a new addition for SC but I forgot the number lol. As SC always repaints their buses shortly after they get them.

I think that's exactly what he saw. The LGA OG's aren't due to go over there just yet.

 

Ok well #3642 and #3645-3649 along with #3719 have made there way to JFK within the last year. #3642 and #3719 have returned to LaGuardia BUT #3645-3649 are still at JFK.

 

As a matter of fact, I think #3642 actually went back to JFK within the past week. I think "TJ Trainman" told me that.

#9643 has been at Flatbush for a few months now. #9643-9645 are there. I think #9646 is still at 126th St. Did you see that bus in Brooklyn?

I was the one that initally reported it, I rode 3642 on the Q8 with LGA decals. He probably used my info to tell you.

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.

 

Whoa, friggin whoa! I hope for the short term the O5s from JFK goes to LGA. Let LGA 'handle' them before they are sent to ECH. :P

Funny enough, I saw that very bus today [9643] on Av N heading to Flatbush Av this afternoon. Saturday I saw 9644 layed up at Utica, just across from the Petco store.

Yes, I remember seeing 9646 on the B41 a while back.

 

Interesting. I guess I'll be on the look out for that one. I've seen '43-45, but not '46 yet.

I think 9643 came at the same time as 9644 though.

3642 is back @ JFK. I rode it this morning on the (Q8), the usual driver. Its missing a decal on the right hand side and still has the LGA decal on the left
