Definitely not our bus with the Prevost logo on the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCTransitFilms Posted February 12, 2020 Share #4603 Posted February 12, 2020 Does anybody have a listing of which buses are out of service or retired from the current section? I might try and update CPTDB for MTA NY buses. ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been editing the roster such that every bus that is no longer rostered is noted as such. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jova42R Posted February 20, 2020 Share #4605 Posted February 20, 2020 How many XE60s and XE40s are at Quill? Also, I heard that MHV might get some XDE40s. Is this true? If it is, would that mean an M96 SBS? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would *highly* doubt it. As much as I miss Alcoas, they're pretty much gone from the system. Interesting how wide that rear door looks also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 29, 2020 Share #4619 Posted February 29, 2020 On 2/28/2020 at 10:53 AM, XcelsiorBoii4888 said: “This wonderful news is a great way to kick off the New Year for Nova Bus and the hardworking employees in Plattsburgh,” said Senator Betty Little. “Any time I am in New York City, I always think of the tremendous role our region fulfills for downstate mass transit. The scale of this new order certainly reflects the confidence that NYCT has in the excellent product that is made here in our backyard by the professional and dedicated men and women working at Nova Bus. I couldn’t be prouder or happier!” “The MTA has once again chosen to trust the North Country by awarding NovaBus a contract for up to 500 buses,” said Assemblyman Billy Jones (D-Plattsburgh). Yet upstate legislators always want to defund the MTA and screw over the City. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xcelsior Man Posted February 29, 2020 Share #4620 Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) Speaking of the LFS HEV, I have drew that bus back in May(5 days before my birthday), and I am assuming that picture does make a miracle to the incoming LFS to arrive by the time my birthday comes.

Or it could be that OMNY is being implemented and we need wider doors for boarding on. Which was gonna increase fare evasion with or without wide doors. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fare beating happens more often through the front than the back anyways, so that's irrelevant. I also notice that the bus has those new seats found on XN60 1073. Does anyone notice the rear window on the rendering? I highly doubt the MTA is going back to that window...
