7243 is GAs Grand Ave.

[T J Trainman]

Just to clear things up with the XD40s at LGA, they currently have 7439-7449, and 7451. Also LGA does NOT have 7438 or 7450.......yet.

These buses at LGA are coming in at a rapid rate..

Looks like the CS buses are coming in right after LGA or else the option buses are heading to Brooklyn Division.

Honestly, I'm surprised that the option buses didn't come down as of yet.

[T J Trainman]

They are coming in way to fast. Most of them now have LGA stickers on them fare boxes installed etc. Im not sure when they will enter service.

That is awesome those Orion V's are just falling apart and so on. They aged worst than the RTS and I liked Orion's more than RTS.

LGAs batch was already being built and was more or less piling up at NESF until drivers were trained enough and the depot was ready to accept them

 

And we still don't know who getting the option order just yet. Once LGA gets theirs, then Stengel gets their piece, the order is done save for a few sprinkles of missing buses here and there

[T J Trainman]

Looks like FLA was forgotten about lol.

[Bracamonte]

Looking at the roster, it seems that the majority of LGA's fleet are RTS's.

 

BTW, Spring Creek is now 100% CNG? I remember years ago, they had both Hybrids and CNG.

4801 is actually ex 5400, not 5392 like previously said.

Spirng Creek's local fleet is 100% CNG, the depot itself is CNG local buses and MCI Express buses

5364 sitting band spanking new at JFK 

[R179 8258]

Nice shot !!! Now where is it headed to first ? JFK or Baisley ????

[T J Trainman]

That will be a JFK bus.

[R32 3838]

A lot of you repeatedly ask questions to which the answers can be found on the first page of the MTA Bus Operations Fleet and Depots thread. Delivery info and assignments have been posted and updated there for 4 years now.... Please refer to that page before asking about what buses are going where and what the fleet numbers are... If you do not find what you are looking for, then post your question elsewhere... Some of you have been members here way too long to not steady know this.

 

@Q43LTD - as of right now these are the assignments and as always they are subject to change... I am being told the buses may go to the Woodhaven SBS in liew of Baisley Park. I am still awaiting confirmation.

yea it's rumored BP might get half of the Q53 for SBS, it's been in the talks for over a year now

[MysteriousBtrain]

yea it's rumored BP might get half of the Q53 for SBS, it's been in the talks for over a year now

Shouldn't BP get all of the Q53? Or be split with JFK instead of CP (assuming half means split with CP)?

[NewFlyer 230]

yea it's rumored BP might get half of the Q53 for SBS, it's been in the talks for over a year now

If BP got half the Q53 then the Q64 will have to return to CP to free up space.

[Future ENY OP]

Looks like FLA was forgotten about lol.

FB needs 7352-7365 to complete order.

[T J Trainman]

From what I have understood the extra artics for BP are for the full Q-53.

[NewFlyer 230]

If it is the full route than that means BP will have to lose more than just the Q64.

[tvega961]

The Q53 is planned to go back to LGA in January according to numerous sources out of College Point...the Q53 SBS is on HOLD right now...I believe they are more focused on the Q44 SBS and B46 SBS at the moment before they jump to the Q52/53 stage. 

The artics at BP are for the Q113/Q114...

The artics at JFK are for the Q10/Q52...or whatever route JFK wants them on. 

And artics to LGA is not out of the question yet...



And can we please keep this Q53 SBS nonsense out of this thread and keep that somewhere else but here...

Thank you...I was just about to comment on that.

 

Stop with the gotdamned speculations or folks will be removed from this thread. I've said this enough. Filling this thread with pointless nonsense. This is about moves, not foamer's wetdreams. The Q53 SBS is not for another couple of years, so relax with the damn speculation.
