Yes, that's correct (forgot to pin that reply) I mean to answer as none left: there's none that's by the lot on the left of Tillotson Av/Connor St where all the retired VIIs/Vs were there before.

Those two looked like they were deadheading deep downtown possibly towards Brooklyn. Again, when I mentioned it yesterday it was an unknown destination. The buses didn’t have a red hold decal and or a transfer sheet on the windshield. I was driving north on WSH towards 42nd-MQ Territory. However, they are both back at MQ as of this morning. 5451 on the M34SBS, 5458 on M34A-SBS..

There was a group of teens in the middle of 6240. They pulled the E-brake in the middle section at the area of Broadway and Elmhurst Avenue and ran off. As I got off, they was talking about why you recording us you all P***y ain't gonna do S**t. Another group and I stood with the b/o (and now that I think about it I knew the b/o from way back and it didn't click at the time) and showed the superintendent what we got. We board back onto the Q53 going to Rockaway Park and one of the teens gets back on board in the same area. This time we was ready to record and catch him slipping. I moved up a bit to get him to notice me recording him and have someone else catch his face. As I record him he pulls the E-brake once again in the rear and attempted to catch him but wasn't really able to. However the plan I had worked and we got a CLEAR SHOT of his face as a result. @BigJay0130 It didn't click but I don't think you remembered me either (especially since I have somewhat of a different look now) but glad to see you again and I'm glad my group and I was able to help out with the situation on 6240.

I jumped on the Bx10 yesterday after voting to catch my Metro-North train since I just missed the shuttle bus and was surprised that the bus wasn’t run down. It was one of the new ones though.

It’s one of the later Ex Gun Hill units. A late #4770’s or one of the #4780’s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
