Ok so here is the LEGIT move list once Mother Clara Hale opens, and this is coming from a reliable source who saw this on the pick board for system pick...Here goes...

 

 

M31 - Quill
M60 SBS - Quill
M116 - Manhattanville
M15 local - Tuskegee
M15 SBS - Clara Hale
M35 - Clara Hale
M1 - Clara Hale
M7 - Clara Hale
M96 - Manhattanville
M86, M101/2/3 - Remains at Tuskegee
M42 - four morning runs at Manhattanville, the rest at Quill
M98 - Manhattanville

M1 is 46 runs, M104 is something close to that with all the interlining.

M7 is 33 runs, M96 is 24 runs. 

Taking the full M98 is ~5 more buses, full M116 ~8 more buses.

 

I'd count on MV getting either a chunk of the TU OGs or the remainder of the Quill OGs. What MCH gets will be an interesting question though--I'd assume the 126 RTSes will head to Quill for fleet unity, but we never know.

What what what.....

 

Well, the DH to Quill isn't too bad. Hopefully that means the 5900s go there with it, seeing 5800s and 5900s on the 34 and 60 select will be interesting. The 15 local to 100th Street makes me wonder how many artics will be sent there/possibly split with Quill.

 

As for the 98 and 104...get them RTSs while you still can!

From what I hear, the depot is not opening at full capacity because of a deal made with the community to not have more buses in the new depot than the old depot had. But I'm sure that the amount of buses and lines in the depot will increase over time as the "need" arises...

Would the M106 be changed? The M96 and M106 share the same fleet and I'm pretty sure that the M106 doesn't need artics (now that it seems Tuskegee is once again a fully artic depot).

its going to Manhattanville with the 96. The M96 and 106 are the same routes except different East Harlem terminals
