Until 2 days ago, the NG HEVs came for them from FP and now they seem ready for the XDE40s. Oh and the OG HEVs from ENY, I almost forgot The Winter Fleet review said that East New York, Flatbush, Fresh Pond, Grand Avenue, and Ulmer Park are all in line for it. I even posted that list last week and this was also confirmed by @East New York. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just know that things can change in a heartbeat.....let's not get overzealous of these things until it actually happens. Nothing is confirmed, as things can change without notice....just like this unorganized XD40 order we're still going through.

Speaking of unorganized orders, I'm still a bit curious on the FB situation. Obviously FB is currently off the list for XD60s at the moment and I shouldn't take delivery assignments seriously, but how much is currently planned for Flatbush and Quill for now? Last I heard it was 28 for each depot and I lost the planned assignments way back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t noticed any movement as of late with the XD’s with exception of the 2 that went to FB last week.

You can tell by the doors and numbering that the it's a repaint though. The only unrepainted NGs I know of are the ex-SI buses. There might be one or two Flatbush buses still running around in a partial repaint. You're right... i totally forgot that a few units got the "oh hell no... we're not doin' alldat" treatment. lazy repaint in the old style instead of the straight blue stripe down the sides smh 😂 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion6025 Posted May 20, 2019 Share #3837 Posted May 20, 2019 I figured i'd make a post with an overview of the delivered 2019 LFS: Gun Hill (6): 8616, 8619, 8622-8625 Kingsbridge (29): 8543-8553, 8555-8572 Queens Village (32): 8509-8517, 8519-8534, 8536-8542 Yukon (33): 8573-8576, 8578-8583, 8585-8592, 8594-8595, 8598-8600, 8603-8611, 8613 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Department of buses is running this. The notion of buses being delivered in consecutive numbers is gone. Each depot will get about 25-30 buses in consecutive order than the rest is mixed.

Cuz 5991 was unwrapped for local service and plus TU does not have a share of the SBS. That’s all Quill. Although TU has a few trips on the 14 IMO: TU doesn’t need to be doing the 14A&D. That should all be for Quill since they want to take every bus from the city. Sheesh those buses should of went to Quill and not TU 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4P3607 Posted May 22, 2019 Share #3849 Posted May 22, 2019 What's the status on 3591? It was involved in an accident crashing into a bagel shop a few months ago. I'd guess it would be scrap considering it would be retired in the next two years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, this is where the M35 to 100 street rumor comes in. don't know how true it is, but it's been swirling around ever since two-six closed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
