4657-4658, 4660, 4664 Jamaica to Casey Stengel

 

#4657 is on the Q12 right now BUT I do think these are loaners since I've seen #4660 (with Jamaica logos) on the Van Wyck heading southbound towards Jamaica. Speaking of #4660, it's on the Q20A now.

 

 

Also, #4656 is on the Q13, #4664 is on the Q76 and #4658 is on the Q44 LTD.

[Q43LTD]

I get the feeling that Stengel will get Jamaica's NG's when the LFS orders kicks in...

[NewFlyer 230]

It makes sense if CS got both JA and some of QV's Orion VII's.

Thats what the plan is. Stengel is not getting any new buses.

[Q43LTD]

Thats what the plan is. Stengel is not getting any new buses.

Probably some of QV's OG's will go to Stengel as well

[T J Trainman]

I don't see QVlosing any hybrids. If JAM sent over all of theirs it still wouldn't be enough 45 hybrids replacing 67 O-5s?

The rest will be from Charleston's load as its upcoming local fleet is all NovaBus LFS

 

   Jamaica= 45 + Charleston= 38

[Q43LTD]

So Stengel will have surplus of 16 buses?

[Calvin]

1/2 of Charleston's Next Gens will be at Stengel for all I know

[Future ENY OP]

I really like the predictions to where Charleston's NG's are going..

However, can we actually see how the process would go first.. likes to change destinations to where buses are going to be.

It appears that CS will not get new buses. However, JAM and QV are getting new buses. Send previous buses to CS. That should cover the x-amount of buses needed for CS.

 

In past experiences Staten Island Division buses don't make the pilgrimage over to queens.

 

Last Staten Island Swap was Yukon to Fresh Pond 39xx buses and 40xx buses, and before that was Yukon to FB (RTS).

[BM5 via Woodhaven]

Yukon did send NG's to Queens before, so I think it can happen again (39xx/41xx), which are now at QV, and I think JFK.

[Orion VII 4 Life]

Those all went to JFK first then got moved fo QV

[Micstromme]

7325 is shaking things up at that Bush.

How about we just wait and see?

[MHV9218]

[Gotham Bus Co.]

Not so fast... Jamaica's allotment of Novas will be replacing elderly RTS's, so those NG's will have to stay put.

[Flatbush Depot]

Flatbush losing RTS left and right.
