still have the option order left and that goes to Stengel

Those 3Gs need to stay in Staten Island. They are out of shape. Recently came to Staten Island, and those 3G's aren't very nice. They are vandalised heavily and filthy. The NGs look in better shape than 3Gs IMO. 

So are a bunch of buses in Queens. It won't make any difference.

 

Those 3Gs can't handle Staten Island hills

1. That's not true at all.

2. Buses with Allison Transmissions don't handle hills that well either. The S66 is the prime example of some serious hill climbing.

False. Stengel is only getting 75 extra buses. The BIG option order is a lil over 100 buses.

Is there an updated depot assignments list for the Nova order after the recent moves?...

[The TransitMan]

False. Stengel is only getting 75 extra buses. The BIG option order is a lil over 100 buses.

I thought it was 72 extra buses. Was that changed slightly?

The 72 to Stengel are technically part of the big option order.

72, I thought it was 75, whoops.

Not exactly. Those were not part of the option order. Those buses were added to the main order to push out the Orion Vs faster. The options have yet to be determined as to where they will go and what numbers they will be. This will be interesting because they'll kinda clash with the Orion VII CNG numbers!

I think the 75 was for the XD60s 

[MysteriousBtrain]

I think the 75 was for the XD60s

7366-7437, that's 72 buses for the XD40s.

Originally yes, the XD60s had 75 but was increased to 128.

i would think the xn40's will be delived before the end of the xd40 option.
