Q43LTD Posted November 30, 2013 Share #10076 Posted November 30, 2013 There buses are most likely going the other depot. CAS gives 3G's to Yukon, Yukon gives Orion V's or NG's to CAS. This is similar to how JA gave the NG's to QV in return for LFS's from QV.Come to think of it, I would have done the UP-ENY swap differently. Execelsiors for their O7's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it's not that bad I still miss the LFS's & Xcelsiors lol Edited November 30, 2013 by E For Erica 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S78 via Hylan Posted November 30, 2013 Share #10078 Posted November 30, 2013 Okay I get it now. And I honestly never rode a NG on a Castleton route. I hope it's not that bad I still miss the LFS's & Xcelsiors lol When the NGs were delivered to Castleton, I was still living in Staten Island, so I rode them. I actually like the 3Gs there better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staten Island buses can have any bus from any of the depots (except from Meredith) running at anytime. CaitSith already stated that the driver with 7014 was doing overtime so don't expect any 3G's coming to Yukon anytime soon. Just expect them to show up as short-trip runs. Remember, the S78 was running under Castleton when 7014 showed up on the S79. Edited November 30, 2013 by Kingsbridgeviewer382 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say anything about a swap... but what does that last part mean the s78 was running under castleton when 7014 showed up on the s79? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't towards you. What he means that there is a small possibility of an S78 to turn into an S79 during the holidays or sometimes when the operator is doing overtime, but that's not always the case. It could come from anywhere and be an S79. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E For Erica Posted December 1, 2013 Share #10089 Posted December 1, 2013 When the NGs were delivered to Castleton, I was still living in Staten Island, so I rode them. I actually like the 3Gs there better. Me too. My only thing with them is when the driver goes full speed the back seat viberates a lot and it gets uncomfortable & there's a annoying ringing sound in the transmission. I can hear it through my music sometimes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E For Erica Posted December 2, 2013 Share #10091 Posted December 2, 2013 I saw two next gens on the Q54 today & as much as I hate them, they actually looked mad fresh, clean & brand new. I was impressed Fresh Pond actually put the emphasis on FRESH with those buses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted December 2, 2013 Share #10092 Posted December 2, 2013 Come to think of it, I would have done the UP-ENY swap differently. Execelsiors for their O7's. I thought the reason UP doesn't have hybrids was because they weren't equipped to handle them or something about the roof tops being too tall for them to change the batteries. Otherwise, i guess ngs would be a good fit for UP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo19 Posted December 2, 2013 Share #10094 Posted December 2, 2013 I think I found a new way to make a quick buck, a way that's not illegal, well at least not under the law. Yeah, I think I may bid on a few buses and go take them to claim my cash. Better than the can and bottle deposit earnings. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo19 Posted December 3, 2013 Share #10098 Posted December 3, 2013 Right on, you could make a few extra bucks scrapping it, if the mass dealers don't out bid you. In other news, Prevost's on the S89 tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XcelsiorBoii4888 Posted December 3, 2013 Share #10100 Posted December 3, 2013 So this morning at Hylan and Narrows Road South... two ladies were speaking and she said to the lady "since my job relocated I'm now taking the 2X instead of the 1X." Why must she say it like that instead of X1 and X2? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
