dman1455 Posted November 13, 2011 Share #177 Posted November 13, 2011 Finally! My body is ready for when these buses come to either JG or SC, whatever depot is first! I'm still pissed WF is supposed to get more buses than JG and they have a newer fleet and there getting new Novas too, that's BS man :tdown: WF is getting like 56 and JG is getting 34... come on. what are you talking about JG is getting almost 200 of these badboys... all of the 800/900's are leaving to other depots or being retired slowly check your info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainfan22 Posted November 13, 2011 Share #180 Posted November 13, 2011 what are you talking about JG is getting almost 200 of these badboys... all of the 800/900's are leaving to other depots or being retired slowly check your info It was posted in one of the threads on here what depots was getting buses from the base order and JG was only getting 34.... Isn't the base order only like 175 buses? IIRC, it was never posted what the assignments would be if the TA took all the option orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TransitMan Posted November 13, 2011 Share #182 Posted November 13, 2011 what are you talking about JG is getting almost 200 of these badboys... all of the 800/900's are leaving to other depots or being retired slowly check your info Actually New Flyer C40LF #800-856 are due to retire since those are 1998-1999 units. The rest are 2000 models and will be spread out to College Point and Spring Creek...at least that's the plan. If that has changed, then ok.

Isn't the base order only like 175 buses? IIRC, The base order is 135 buses = #185-319 and the option is 250 Buses = #320-569. CP getting 185-229, if I recall.

Gleason, followed by College Point will have the most C40LF's in the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Trainman Posted November 13, 2011 Share #188 Posted November 13, 2011 That is correct 185-229 are for CP. Question will these C40LFs push more O-5s to WF and to scrap? Im thinking yes on both. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queens Surface Posted November 13, 2011 Share #191 Posted November 13, 2011 Problem? Nah, he ain't got a problem, just tight and having the flow of agitation. But man I can't wait to see these buses on the Q65!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone? To me, it would not make any sense to send Orion 05.501 CNG buses to West Farms since the point of West Farms getting 56 C40LFs is to displace the Orion 05.501 CNGs, Orion diesels and RTSes. It would make more sense to just scrap them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Posted November 13, 2011 Share #195 Posted November 13, 2011 That is correct 185-229 are for CP. Question will these C40LFs push more O-5s to WF and to scrap? Im thinking yes on both. Anyone? All Orion Vs to scrap, West Farms is getting 56 C40LFs which will kill off the RTS, Orion V Diesels and Orion V CNGs there. Repeat, NO ORION V CNGs WILL BE DISPLACED TO OTHER DEPOTS, THEY WILL BE RETIRED AND PUT TO DEATH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
