Jdog14 Posted April 28, 2016 Share #17651 Posted April 28, 2016 By the time when most of the buses(2011 & onward) are covered with the new color scheme, people that takes the +SBS+ should not have any problems determining whether an approaching bus is an +SBS+ vehicle, right? I would think the new signs and programs would make things easy lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

checkmatechamp13 Posted April 29, 2016 Share #17655 Posted April 29, 2016 I was trying to remember the date the S79 was rerouted to run clockwise in Bay Ridge. Turns out it was 9/1/09: http://www.mta.info/press-release/nyc-transit/s79-changes-bay-ridge-brooklyn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubBus Posted April 29, 2016 Share #17657 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the info, so 47 buses for BP..... Is it enough for the Q111/13/14? I see Flatbush have 38 buses for the B44SBS. I believed that a couple of artics are used on the B49 during the rush as well....

The Q111 has over 20 buses during the rush, Q113/114 have less than 20 combined. I think the numbers are just fine.

FB had to send 2 artics over to Gun Hill within the last month. Thanks for the info. I don't think that keeping those 2 artics for the start of the B46SBS would help matters. However, I wouldn't be surprised if one or two showed up on the first day of SBS....

More routes around the MTABC division will see more artics in the future. At least that's what I've heard and why not. ......In another note, these OGs are gonna go fast.

Far rockaway Posted May 1, 2016 Share #17672 Posted May 1, 2016 does GA want OG's hybrid buses , since ENY doesn't want their hybrids buses anymore but it looks like they have to keep them for a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Future ENY OP Posted May 1, 2016 Share #17673 Posted May 1, 2016 does GA want OG's hybrid buses , since ENY doesn't want their hybrids buses anymore but it looks like they have to keep them for a while. GA had them once a upon of time. I doubt they want them again. What's making sense right now the OG's are going over to Fresh Pond. The last bus to leave ENY to FP. 6588. Hopefully more will possibly follow suit to Fresh Pond soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAlam Posted May 1, 2016 Share #17674 Posted May 1, 2016 SO they were repairing on the Q44sbs machines and I kid you not, it was running on windows 95, WHY??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted May 2, 2016 Share #17675 Posted May 2, 2016 SO they were repairing on the Q44sbs machines and I kid you not, it was running on windows 95, WHY??? I think it's a version of Windows CE/2000, not 95. Most of the machines and the FIND displays on the R160s work with Windows CE/2000. I think it's some kind of corporate version, forgot the story. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
