Not quite, it's still out of FP

Yeah, I keep forgetting that that route and/or its depots are interchangeable from time to time.

 

Anyway, is 4572 still in Maspeth or has it gone back home?

I was just thinking .... With JFK, BP and LGA (later) taking delivery of the XD60's where is this going to push all the left over OG/NG to... Since (Per ENY) ECH doesn't want, nor can accept Hybrids. The Artics alone will rid MTAB of all RTSs except ECH, so will the OG/NGs there become Storage at ECH or will MTA push the overflow to NYCT to get rid of more RTSs?

Now that really depends which NYCTA depots want to take on MTA BUS fleet. With all the complaining and bus swapping that's going on in the Bronx. They can desperately use some of the MTA BUS fleet and stop taking from other boroughs.

 

Real educated guess: ECH storage.

The artics are more of a fleet expansion, than a bus replacement. Only place the artics will replacing anything is at JFK and their D60s. If anything, whatever overflow hybrids left will push out whatever RTS is running at JFK/LGA, and ECH and get whatever 94/9500s RTS mainline MTA is pushing out.

 

Idk, just my take on it

Ok so Meredith basically just went ALL Prevost. That would explain the 2400s going to Meredith instead of Ulmer Park. Didn't see that coming...well at least not this early. ;-)

Honestly, Ulmer Park should of been included in this bus order. Totally not fair that they had to get used 2400's. Totally surprised that Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst and Coney Island Folk didn't put a stink on those 2400's. Would of been good if UP had the CT's from Castelton since the 2100's at UP are on their last leg.
