Need confirmation of the 2002 NF artic renumberings:

I have 100 now 5512, 101 now 5519, 102 now 5518 103 now 5525; need these confirmed as well as needing 104-106.

Where are you getting 104-106 from? Is that just a projection/guess or do you know if the MTA is planning ahead for any potential renumberings from the 5531-5602 order?

New 5512 delivered to Michael J Quill

[LegoBrickBreaker101]

5471 at GH, their LFSA order is now complete

[Calvin]

6099 GA to MJQ (seeing if it's confirmed or hasn't moved yet)

[T J Trainman]

6099 is still at GA.

[Calvin]

Alright. Too early to tell then since that M Shuttle is done.

5982 MJQ to GH

[Calvin]

Not sure if this is considered an assigned unit but: the Double decker bus has a Charleston depot logo

[MHV184]

Don't know if it's a transfer but 4122 is running on the M116

It's been said on here before that MJQ and MHV tend to do afternoon loans than return back to original depot. In this case 4122 is MJQ. Hope that answers the question. Carry on.

Noticed that 4229 also made the trip down to the island. Are these moves in preparation for the 76xx buses for SBS46+

And I’m guessing Flatbush keeps its 80 or so RTS buses until retirement I’m not mistaken. Am I right?

...... This one I'm not too sure.

If I understand it correctly, the 7600's will push the 7300's into local service and those will retire the RTS.

You may be correct. Which would mean pushing the rest of the 42xx buses to Staten Island (YUK) from the looks of things.

I’m guessing Staten Island wants no RTS buses?

Your guess is my guess sir. Staten Island Division likes newer fleet and NG's. Hope that answers the question.
