3563 why did they send it back to JFK ?

I'm thinking this bus would have floated around so Drivers can get the hang of it

It hasn't seen LGA yet

There's nothing really to get the hang of...it's just a diesel version of the same exact bus they have been driving for years now

Except for the added weight at the rear and the actual transmission of the bus, which are two huge complaints.

The battery on top adds weight... Take that off and add a real transmission and the bus feels totally different

None of my friends have drove it yet so I haven't gotten a real good assessment of the bus

4932 back at Jamaica.

Back from UP or ENY ?

Curious: what depot has 1300 if it is on the roster at this time?

126 St.

 

Back from UP or ENY ?

ENY.

 

Also, the loan from ENY (4839) is a result of UP being short - it's reflected on the updated roster - but I don't expect it to stay there.

 

Updated Roster as of 9:46am today: https://sites.google.com/site/mtaregionalbusroster/

Definitely didnt stay at UP. Thats odd for it to be at UP now.

Why is it odd? It's just a bus #, and it is from EN. UP is borrowing buses because they're short as hell. 4858,4884,4887,4888,4890,4896,4899 are still

Out at the Vendor. 5088 was dragged out of the yard to EC, 9614 was dragged to CMF, 5081 has the doors taken off, no trans, and other buses are out of the building as well. 5052, 5134, 5194 & 5196 Are at UP from FB they're borrowing from them as well.

5041 was sent over earlier today (they had a few UP ops come over to pick em up).

 

But, these are in fact borrowed buses, most definitely.
