Speaking of feeling new, 5138 on the B41 today was blowing air ice cold, now that's what I like in the summer. Seen 4248 still with Yukon stickers running out of FB today as well.

With all the swaps going on, and assuming 4596 and 4220 are loaners, wouldn't it have been simpler to give ENY 4248 and 4278 to borrow? Imo, the fewer the swaps, the simpler... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHV9218 Posted August 5, 2012 Share #2262 Posted August 5, 2012 man 4248 has been there fir a while & they just hvaent change the decal & no one has seen 4220 on a ENY run & is 4596 still only on the 15 & thanks for the info Np, btw 4220 has been seen, check Adam's post in the photos. With all the swaps going on, and assuming 4596 and 4220 are loaners, wouldn't it have been simpler to give ENY 4248 and 4278 to borrow? Imo, the fewer the swaps, the simpler... I agree, but who even knows. I gotta assume they're only loaners based on how random the numbers are, but who knows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta assume they're only loaners based on how random the numbers are, but who knows. but im confused as to why they would loan them NGs a bus ENY has never had ... why not a RTS This is what is convincing me that it isnt , but i never get my hopes up with the MTA 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted August 5, 2012 Share #2264 Posted August 5, 2012 Best guess is testing and maybe ENY getting 2nd hand NGs from other depot's. If so, I would say it's about time as they have such an old fleet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S78 via Hylan Posted August 6, 2012 Share #2266 Posted August 6, 2012 Caught Ex-Yukon NG 4248 on the B44 not too long ago. Bus looks fixed up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Via Garibaldi 8 Posted August 6, 2012 Share #2267 Posted August 6, 2012 Caught Ex-Yukon NG 4248 on the B44 not too long ago. Bus looks fixed up. Fixed up how so? Also why are Flatbush and Yukon swapping NGs??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S78 via Hylan Posted August 6, 2012 Share #2268 Posted August 6, 2012 Fixed up how so? Also why are Flatbush and Yukon swapping NGs??? It looked cleaner, engine sounded better and A/C worked well. As for the swap, I'm not too sure of the reason..... But I have a feeling once Yukon gives back 4581 and 4630 to Flatbush, they will get their original 4248 and 4278 in return. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted August 6, 2012 Share #2269 Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) Last I saw 4248 last week, the rear area of the bus around the exhaust pipe looked filthy. I am wondering how much longer SI needs those buses. I mean what's the hold up? Edited August 6, 2012 by Grand Concourse 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acela Express Posted August 6, 2012 Share #2270 Posted August 6, 2012 Caught Ex-Yukon NG 4248 on the B44 not too long ago. Bus looks fixed up. Fixed up? The bus looks the same. My boy was operating that bus today and it looks the same as when it was transferred in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My boy was operating that bus today and it looks the same as when it was transferred in. Maybe it did. Point is, it looked better than the condition of current SI NG's to me.

Jdog14 Posted August 6, 2012 Share #2272 Posted August 6, 2012 4278 is the filthiest bus I ever rode in my life. Some of the seats are gummed up and there is a dust bunny at the back on the right side. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkmatechamp13 Posted August 6, 2012 Share #2273 Posted August 6, 2012 I found a blue MetroCard on the ground today. It reminds me of an episode of SpongeBob called "Jellyfish Hunter" where he says "Ah, a Krabby Patty with blue jelly. BLUE JELLY!" (and then the blue jellyfish brings him to a factory where Mr. Krabs is squeezing jelly from the jellyfish). It's amazing how long this stuff sticks in my mind. (It would be better if I could find the clip). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B36 Via Ave U Posted August 6, 2012 Share #2275 Posted August 6, 2012 4278 is the filthiest bus I ever rode in my life. Some of the seats are gummed up and there is a dust bunny at the back on the right side. 4248 is just as filthy, thats just how I would describe 4248 and the rest of the Youkon Buses at FB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
