My list of MQ transfers these past couple days, compiling some past posts by TJ and others. Correct me if I'm missing anything.

3992, 3998, 4111, 4454 MQ to GH. 

5302, 5304-5305 MQ to KB.

5834, 5897 MQ to OH.

6103, 6123 GH to MQ.

4121 MQ to ZEREGA, likely GH after.

NEW: 5484, 5487-5488, 5490-5491

 

Others:

5710, 5741 KB to WF.

4405, 4455 MV to GH. None of the other Lithium ion O7 NGs have run out of MV in a day or two so I think those are out too, have to check if GH as well.

Why is GH getting all those buses for? Also just because a bus doesn’t run for a day or two doesn’t mean it’s been transferred to another depot. Also are Quill and MHV getting anything back from what they just transferred to GH?

5303 didn't make the trip to the Bronx?

Damm, just saw 3992 and 3998 yesterday working the M55 via 6th Avenue.

I gotta ask the same question... Why Gun Hill?  Gun Hill has enough buses to make service.

Quill is getting brand new Nova's which are displacing the buses that are going to Gun Hill

So is Gun Hill... 15 buses for the first order and they should be in the running for the option order along with Kingsbridge.

I'm aware lol, but those buses have made pull-out every day and we know there's a shift going on, so would make sense if the oddballs are transferred out for fleet uniformity. Remember that's what happened with 3960-3964 to CS, 4429-4430, 4407, every Li-on NG MHV has had. Worth keeping an eye on it. Unclear what Quill and MV are getting, but the XDE40 should be in play soon too.

Grand Av no longer has the shuttle next pick but, Fresh Pond will take over till the 30th. It'll be like the weekend G.O with different buses in different depots.

(M) shuttle will officially end on 4/30/18?  Interesting how Fresh Pond will take over. Hope this is shared with the rest of Brooklyn Division.

The viaduct is nearly finished but not only Fresh Pond though.
