XcelsiorBoii4888 Posted July 23, 2018 Share #23926 Posted July 23, 2018 I just noticed Baisley Park and LaGuardia Depots are the only two that have 40ft, 45ft, and 60ft buses. The ops there can basically drive anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, great spotting of that bus. Hopefully, they put more trailer ads on the other buses at MJQ and other Manhattan Divisions.. That's the only depot in the city that I find very sophisticated with the ads. Also, hope they can expand those ads to the Brooklyn Division (FB/ENY/GA/FP/JG/UP) Unrelated note: JG finally putting ads on their XD40's. 769, 772 are the only ones I've spotted so far. West Farms is also putting ads on their XN40s. Spotted 697 on the Bx32 with the "MY MTA" ad a few days ago 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calvin Posted July 24, 2018 Share #23934 Posted July 24, 2018 - Doesn't Far Rockaway store the local hybrids from JFK as well? - Also, there's at least 4 standard XN-40s that's still on the Bx6-SBS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're rotated. Far Rockaway does have their share of local routes too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAlam Posted July 24, 2018 Share #23943 Posted July 24, 2018 (edited) All SIM routes and schedules are now available on the transit app. Addon: Apperently all SIM4X and SIM8X buses will make 2 stops, first at the SI mall and then at the last stop of the SIM4 and SIM8 respectively before going to Manhattan. As for the SIM5X and SIM6X they will just be short runs. Father Cupertino PK and Ride is also not served by the normal SIM5/6 Edited July 24, 2018 by IAlam 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainfan22 Posted July 24, 2018 Share #23946 Posted July 24, 2018 What is a "Parlor Bus"? There was an RTS being used as a swing bus today saying it was a Parlor Bus in the window. Bus also had a red "Hold" sign in the window, bus still had its farebox btw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father Cupertino PK and Ride is also not served by the normal SIM5/6 IMO, I rather have the SIM4X/8X start at the ETC, make one stop at the Mall park and ride and then go straight to Manhattan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are the steps to getting the SIM schedules. 1. Download the "Transit App" (offline timetables) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tapgap.transit 2. When prompted to chose a city, click on "New York". 3. Click on "Routes" in the drag down menu from the left. 4. Scroll down untill you see the SIM routes. 5. Choose you're stop combo and choose the date (It won't show anything if you put the date before August 19, 2018). And you should be done.

No transit is a different app altogether https://transitapp.com/ I highly recommend them since it works almost anywhere in the country with a semi-decent transit system. It also works in a lot of other countries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
