I'm not sure that I'm right, but both the LFS HEV and XDE40 orders have 4ONE Gemini seats. In addition, I counted on the amount of seats on both of the buses, and the LFS HEV has seats of 34, and possibly the XDE40s have either a seating of 37, or 39. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I’m wondering is what type of info screens are installed on the new XDE40s. 9500-9509 has Version 2, but most Xcelsiors have Version 3.

Pretty sure all new buses coming in will have Vianovas (Version 2). Disappointed that the XD60s, 6126-6286 and XE60s came with unClever Devices (Version 3). Those screens barely work properly across every depot, so it's clearly a manufacturing issue.

That’s been there for 2 weeks. However, 9511 is definitely new and I believe 9503 is there for repairs, maintenance. My only question is once 9560 is certify and ready for training + in service will it go Fresh Pond or Grand Avenue? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Future ENY OP Posted November 18, 2020 Share #4983 Posted November 18, 2020 @NBTA: 9503 at GA. not at JFK NEBR. Check the moves page. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I saw, I only guessed what it was because I rolled past the plant on the Q10. Saw that 9503 wasn't active, so my assumption was those 3 buses. Thank you for clarifying however. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Posted November 18, 2020 Share #4985 Posted November 18, 2020 With more Nova LFS HEVs (or future LFS buses) on the way being delivered, is the seat that's close to the operator being removed or that it's a temporary thing due to covid? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any still have them, they will probably be removed unless they want to use them for Q33/Q47/Q72 service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a bit surprised that they (FP) haven’t received any NG’s or possibly more XD40’s from Ulmer Park. Their last delivery was about 3 weeks ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHV9218 Posted December 3, 2020 Share #4996 Posted December 3, 2020 Fillin' in for Dante, huh? 😉 This is about to make things pretty damn interesting. Looks like Manhattanville is replacing a nice portion of the fleet with these LFS HEVs and XDEs, and an even larger portion if the option order goes through. It has been so long since Manhattanville got a genuinely new order of buses, lol. XDEs to Hale and Stengel look like they're designed to knock out the OG fleet entirely. I wonder where Tuskegee is gonna send those lead acids, too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Valiant Posted December 3, 2020 Share #4997 Posted December 3, 2020 If these assignments are true, most of the new buses will go to Manhattan Division while only 25 go to Brooklyn, Queens, and Bronx. Manhattan could finally get the new buses they deserve if these assignments get finalized. I am looking forward for all these buses to be delivered and see where our current buses get moved to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHV/TU/MQ/MCH Lead acids: My guesses are Grand Avenue (GA), Fresh Pond (FP), Flatbush (FB) and Queens- bus. 52 minutes ago, Cait Sith said: Preliminary assignments of the new fleet are as follows.

I was hearing rumors of it from all over, I think Dante was hearing the same thing from higher ups, we had a whole little thread on it lmao. That one didn't exactly pan out. Real shame. Edit: just went back to and read through... whooo-eee were we all wrong as hell lol. But at least we all had the same wrong info at the same time!
