With the Q12 going artic, how many buses will they get? When will the deliveres start for CS

They'll most likely get the rest of the non-2019 batch from Quill and keep the ones they currently got for Quill. They also got 8 buses on loan at LaGuardia that they'll get back, that should cover it.

They may remove the SBS showing like 7649, as an example for the Quill units that is

Or just run them as is, like they did when the M35 was using SBS buses. Branding doesn't always matter in some cases.

23 buses are left with the current LFS order, buses numbered are 8504-8507, 8646, 8720-8722, 8724-8726, 8731, 8738, 8743, 8746-8754.

I would assume 8504-8507, 8646 will go to Queens Village, 8720-8722, 8724-8726 will be at Yukon, and the remaining will end up at Gun Hill.

As for 7787, I expect that to be delivered to East New York and 7848 to Ulmer Park.

Anything could happen though.....

7787 is at ENY.
7848 still at the vendor. No longer at Zerega.

I'm assuming deliveries on the XD40s are on hold till next month.

Has 8701 been given to Castleton yet?

Going to 7905.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but that’s 30 extra XD40s for MTA NYCT, plus the 25 for MTA Bus, correct?

Also, What happened with that option they had on the table to change the MTA Bus order to diesel-electric hybrid? Is that not going through anymore?

Unless it has changed, it's all NYCT.

As for that second one, wait and see.

I was just asking. Apparently, East New York took down the section from the first page that detail the orders and deliveries through 2022. That’s where I found the plan for change.

I wasn't getting on your case. I just stated that because as always, things can change in a heartbeat.

Very true. I believe this is the reason why some of us shouldn’t be relying on the forums info, though I remember you saying this to me in the comments of one of your videos:

Y'all gotta stop relying on the forum for info. Things change so often that it's not solid until it's actually solid.

And that comment came from this video:

There are some major changes coming to Washington heights on the bx11, bx13, bx35 & bx36 to  accommodate the bx35 Articulation 

• bx11 & bx13 buses will now terminate where the bx35 terminate on

 179st btw Wadsworth Ave & Broadway  

also eastbound stop on 181st & wadsworth Ave will now be shared with the bx3 

 

• bx35 & bx36/LTD will now share the terminal on 179st btw Broadway & ft Washington Ave 

eastbound stop on 178st btw wadsworth ave & Broadway has been eliminated and is being combined with the first stop on 178st & ft Washington Ave 

Bx35 & bx36 will now share the same route pattern west of 181st & wadsworth Ave
