^Is that SBS wrap for the Bx6?

Most likely. If that's the case, I would think that 720-741 are for the Bx6 SBS.

The wrap seems to suit it better than the XD60, weird. Or I’ve just gotten so used to the Q44 wraps that it doesn’t bother me anymore.

The scheme on the Q44 is growing on me. This will have to as well (eventually). They really should have put light blue on the whole bus.

6121 is indeed at GH and all units there are not SBS Wrapped.

Why the Bx26 tho? Do artics appear as it often as it does on the Bx30? Smh during schools, they’re not around but during the summer yea why not. 4789 was on the other day.

One articulated bus is on the Bx28 AM rush

Once the even buses have been delivered, then MTABC picks up theirs starting with 6126

My pending cancel post has now been 100% Accurate. Grand Av is officially pending cancel, however 6115(waiting on its destination now) is out on the road now for the first time since it was sent to Grand. Gun Hill will get the buses now in an 11th hour decision. This also means the LFSA assignment and possibly the 4700 assignments will now change as well.

 

We also should have had at least 6-10 LFSA's in service by now, but this order is now at least a month if not more behind schedule. It is unclear how MTA will move forward with the fleet until we get some details on the LFSA order. Everything about that procurement has gone silent, which is very strange to me.

 

Summary:

Some buses were mentioned already

 

5992, 5993, 5995, 5996, 5997, 6003 all in.

 

6103 to OH

 

6117, 6121, 6123, 6125 to GH

That's good because those lines need them. Those 40 footers are too little.

Do you have the disposition of them and how many that MTA Bus is getting?

6126-6178 (53). When updated, fleet assignments are always posted in the first page of this thread. MTA is currently reviewing proposals from Nova and New Flyer. However, it will be going to New Flyer for various reasons.

 

 

Update on 6115: The bus went out on driver training today so we will see how things go.....

Scheme wrap training? What's that involve?
