SevenEleven Posted January 21, 2013 Share #876 Posted January 21, 2013 Not exactly. Quoted directly from New Flyer: Futhermore, the new release goes on to say... You can read it directly below in the link provided. The only reason I'm not quoting the entire thing is because I didn't provide the link. http://www.newflyer.com/index/2013_01_17_mta_new_york_award In which I said above. Before any options were exercised, we had up to bus 643. 185- 569 off the NYCT order with 90 remaining options, then 570-643 from the Bus order with the 30 options. 14+15 options exercised from their respective orders leaving 76/15 (91 total). 29 buses after 643 is 644-672. 185-319 [135 Primary | 340 Options] 320-569 [250 Options | 90 Remain] 570-643 [74 Primary | 30 Options 120 Collective] 644-658 [15 Options | 15 Bus Remain 105 Collective] 659-672 [14 Options | 76 NYCT Remain 91 Collective] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

depotofrelax Posted January 21, 2013 Share #879 Posted January 21, 2013 The last C40LF is supposed to be # 701. The last C40LF is supposed to be # 701. Ok.. What lesson is West Farms Depot is learning the next purchase of C40LF new flyer will go up to #701... They will not receive more new batch of C40LF new flyer.. it will be only for Jackie Gleason Depot again they will receive new batch again. Come on.

NewFlyer 230 Posted January 24, 2013 Share #888 Posted January 24, 2013 WF is probably going to get more Orion VII's from JG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Pond Posted January 24, 2013 Share #889 Posted January 24, 2013 They don't have buses to give up. The last batch of C40s coming in is pretty much a bus for bus replacement of the older ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
