My friend told me that his dispatcher friend at LGA said they may get the XEs or HEV On 10/3/2020 at 3:38 PM, Q39 to Ridgewood said: im not saying that it WILL happen, but it could be a possibility from the information Dispatchers, drivers, ect, they sometimes tend to be the last ones to know what's going on in terms of new buses....so don't take what they said seriously. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, from what I heard..(because I left NYC), East New York Depot is now under construction for articulated busses... so im assuming the articulated buses will go for the B15 and B82/82SBS, but anything could happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The option orders have not been paid for, and it is not certain whether there would be any option orders anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainfan22 Posted October 5, 2020 Share #4962 Posted October 5, 2020 I hope the build quality on these upcoming XDE40 is better than the ones we already have... every one I been on is a rattle trap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They weren't like that when they were brand new. They took two years of beatdowns especially on the Q58, B47 and B60, rattling was bound to happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d put the B62 in that same equation due to the ongoing construction in Downtown Brooklyn and parts of Kent Avenue currently. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSMG106 Posted October 16, 2020 Share #4968 Posted October 16, 2020 (edited) I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post this, but I'm currently planning to go to Queens as my first time experience with Bus. I wanted to know if anyone can rank all of the depots from NYCT, MABSTOA, and or MTA Bus that you rode with, and give out pros and cons for me to check out which depot can be different? I will be using routes from JFK depot in and out of Manhattan, and that is the reason why I wanted to see if anyone has any answers.

I can compile a list of fast and slow routes per depot (from a rider stand point). Just let me get home and I'll do a Google doc for you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
