MTA Bus Operations: Deliveries, Moves & Transfers

[MTA Bus]

8184 was in service today on the s40.

[LegoBrickBreaker101]

As well as 8185 on the S46 right now. Guess those are finally hitting service at CA...

Updated.

 

Question: All these Novas are starting to come into Castleton, what's leaving? Orion V's I assume, but any news on which ones?

[FmrCUSAOp]

They've already started setting aside Orion Vs for scrap. There are already quite a few (6099 comes to mind as it was one of my favorites to drive). I'll work on getting numbers.

8120-8123 at ENY.

[The TransitMan]

Yeah, Orion 5s are going BUT don't get too comfortable because #8125-8134 are leaving for Charleston soon. Castleton got those buses because they had Novas before so they are familiar.

8120-8123 at ENY.

Guessing ENY order is done

8091, 8092, 8093 is what's missing.

 

I don't believe 8124 made it either, but it may or may not already be here now.

7400 at CS

 

2-3 more weeks the CS order will be done and HOPEFULLY the option order will begin (if and only if).

Honestly NF knows how to deliver on the orders. Totally better from back in the days.

[T J Trainman]

7397, and 7398 to CS.

2053 and 2107 to QV but why?

2053 and 2107 to QV but why?

I would think because its ridiculous to expect them to make express service with only 35 MCI's when 30 are needed. The buses they have aren't brand new anymore... Edited September 26, 2015 by Blitz

So is it still confirmed that 8090-8125 will be heading to Jamaica after ENY gets back whatever RTS they lost?

8125 is in Staten Island..

 

As far as that rumor is concerned.. Let's really see what happens. So far NO buses have not moved from East New York to Jamaica.

I think so too. It's pretty easy for several buses to possibly be worked on and for one or two to not be able to run in service. IMO, it's spare ratio is pretty low, I think even LGA has a better spare ratio. It's never needed transit buses on the regular runs, compared to QV, which has had several occasions of them running.

In IMO I don't think those Novas are leaving ENY. 1. Because they keep on getting more and more of those Novas 2. ENY just some 2 RTS to Ulmer Park 3. And why would the MTA wait until ENY Nova order is finish then send off to Jamaica.

[FmrCUSAOp]

8196-8198 and 8200 now in at Castleton (not sure if 8199 came in)
