[T J Trainman]

Just curious anything to LGA?

[B36 Via Ave U]

Be patient....sheesh.

[MHV9218]

3950 to Quill. Fresh out of the paint shops too, first local bus I've seen with those new turn stickers on 2490-2491.

[T J Trainman]

I'm always patient.

Lotta new shit to ENY:

 

8832 from GA

8866, 4934, 4937-4938 from JA

8941-8942, 8948 from LGA

 

Few days ago 8845 went LGA to JA, too. Obviously 8852 from GA as posted, too.

I guess that's to make up for the ones they lost to WF.

With the loans gone from Grand Avenue and the Orion Vs gone, is that depot still short?

Which Orion Vs gone? GA didn't loose any Orion Vs recently.

The loaners were only there because of the shuttle.

Generally speaking, sequentially-numbered transfers are more than loaners. Not clear how long they'll last, but "loans" are day-week long things. These buses have stickers and all.

So did GA's. But you're right about the sequential numbers.

8943 LGA to ENY.

[Armani]

Unless this has been said which I'm sure it has 8866 to ENY. Can someone tell what is up with these recent bus moves

It's due to ENY losing 4968-4977 to WF..... And LGA is borrowing C40LFs 533 is on the Q-33

[Kingsbridgeviewer382]

7617 & 7618 have returned to Jackie Gleason.

[B36 Via Ave U]

7617 & 7618 have returned to Jackie Gleason.

Oh ok. Btw 8941-8943 is at ENY from what I'm told

IIRC, the orion V's are still there. They never left the depot to begin with

4463 is now on the Q20B. Borrowed from QV?

[NewFlyer 230]

I saw 4472 on the Q20A borrowed from QV.

[Orion VII 4 Life]

Maybe the LFS are going back to QV like the rumors were saying.

[NewFlyer 230]

I don't think so yet. Most likely some Orion V's were being fixed up in the depot and it resulted in CS borrowing from QV.

That seems to be the case from what I've been hearing.

Aint no Orion V problem because there were plenty of them out and about. LFSAs are down, so the Q44 is using more 40fters than normal.
