cartmn1210 Posted March 29, 2011 Share #1 Posted March 29, 2011 Castleton recieved the first of 30 NOVA'S yesterday 8002. To me Not as nice as the Orion NG's or the New Flyers. We'll see how the work out. Castletons Orion NG's (HYBRIDS) are supposed to be going to Fresh Pond. Thanks to my buddy Andrew for the new pics!!

trainfan22 Posted March 29, 2011 Share #3 Posted March 29, 2011 If true that the NGs are going to the pond, awesome! As FP routes are nothing to write home about (Exception of the B38, Q54, Q58, etc), they can make that mofo all hybrid for all I care, thank goodness FLA is not getting them!!!!

Also, YES QV is last to get the LFS. I posted that as that was what the TA sent to the AGM in the memo for new bus assigment. It stated that the NG's from Cast were goin to FP to replace EOL Buses (end of life) Im new at this stuff, dont know much about other depots. JUst an FYI.

Queens Surface Posted March 29, 2011 Share #14 Posted March 29, 2011 Wow they look much more roomy than the NGs....comparing the NGs with that set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cartmn1210 Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share #15 Posted March 29, 2011 Wow they look much more roomy than the NGs....comparing the NGs with that set up. they are MUCH SMALLER INSIDE!! only 33 seats! not much leg room in the seat area either. I can hear the farebeaters complainig now about the crowded buses!!! lol they complained when we got the NG's, now they have less room inside the LFS's. we'll see.

NovaBus 5121 Posted March 29, 2011 Share #18 Posted March 29, 2011 Nice shots!!! Unfortunately, it seems as if the MTA decided to use the seating arrangement of NG#4229 at FB where they reverse the seating in the low floor section. I don't know if they feel that there should be more standing room on a low floor then seating room, but I could see some complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIR North Shore Posted March 29, 2011 Share #19 Posted March 29, 2011 Nice pics! I'm hoping they keep these buses off the busier lines though because it looks even more cramped than the NGs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRG Posted March 29, 2011 Share #20 Posted March 29, 2011 Nice! I really wish those buses went to Charleston, but I'm not gonna complain. Finally some more variety in Staten Island at long last since the RTS' left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32 3838 Posted March 29, 2011 Share #21 Posted March 29, 2011 If I see NG's at FP, That ridgewoodbus Buff or whatever the hell his name is will jizz his pants, Other than that I will pay a vist to SI to ride these buses, They look better than the NG's, As for Qv getting the Nova's I can't Wait, and When the Next 30 buses come in (orion 3G's or New Flyers) those OG Orion VII's will go somewhere ( I think Jamaica Depot, in December I seen 3 OG's @ Jamaica Depot from QV in training!!!) but lets see.
