KNIGHTRIDER3:16 Posted August 13, 2011 #1 Posted August 13, 2011 So it seems there are a couple of ??? All because 230 has left and the Farebox has been taken out which means it's going to NYCT so keep your scanners peeled everyone. Farewell to A Great bus
T J Trainman Posted August 13, 2011 #4 Posted August 13, 2011 Thats probably why some 6000s went to KB. To start making room for 230 and its companions.
SoSpectacular Posted August 13, 2011 #6 Posted August 13, 2011 230 is originally supposed to be at West Farms but College Point will be getting their order soon... I hope. With all the slight modifications they made to 230 at least those panels they replaced should be flush with the rest of the body... Yeah, that rear grill sticks out like a sore thumb with its off-white color
4P3607 Posted August 13, 2011 #7 Posted August 13, 2011 Damn! I never caught this bus in service! The only time I ever saw it in person was sitting infront of CP depot gate. If you look at mtattrain's profile pic thats how I saw it as. Oh well, but anyway in a few months CP should be getting alot of them.
IntExp Posted August 13, 2011 #8 Posted August 13, 2011 230 is running on the Q66, if anyone wants to know. I keep seeing it zooming past my house for the past 3 days.
MCID4500.3224 Posted August 13, 2011 #9 Posted August 13, 2011 Wow. and I never seened it on the Q38 route. but all will.:eek:

All because 230 has left and the Farebox has been taken out which means it's going to NYCT so keep your scanners peeled everyone. Farewell to A Great bus the farebox being taken out can also mean that the bus is going back to newflyer or atleast thats what they do when they send NG's to cummins or oriskany...
KNIGHTRIDER3:16 Posted August 14, 2011 Author #11 Posted August 14, 2011 Blitz I'll find out tomorrow but I'm guessing it's going to West Farms
Cait Sith Posted August 14, 2011 #12 Posted August 14, 2011 Blitz I'll find out tomorrow but I'm guessing it's going to West Farms Might be, passed by the West Farms lot last night. No sign of it. I would've thought the more logical thing is to send this bus down to the creek since they get the first batch.

To me CS but the Farebox was taken out and if it went to any MTAB Depot then the farebox would of stayed .I hope it didnt fail on it's test run
4P3607 Posted August 14, 2011 #14 Posted August 14, 2011 Wow. and I never seened it on the Q38 route. but all will.:eek: 1) This bus has run on the Q38, I've seen photos from a few people that have proof. 2) The Q38 is getting switched over to LGA in a few months, so them C40LF's probably will never be seen on the Q38 again.

R188 7857 Posted August 14, 2011 #16 Posted August 14, 2011 I have created a group for the C40LF fans : http://www.nyctransitforums.com/forums/group.php?groupid=78
Acela Express Posted August 15, 2011 #18 Posted August 15, 2011 230 is Zerega as of this morning behind the LFS unit. Still with College Point decals.
KNIGHTRIDER3:16 Posted August 17, 2011 Author #19 Posted August 17, 2011 230 is back in College Pt as of this Afternoon so now I'm really confused:confused:
SoSpectacular Posted August 17, 2011 #20 Posted August 17, 2011 I hear there's been some major changes in the new bus order...
aemoreira81 Posted August 17, 2011 #21 Posted August 17, 2011 Is there a set schedule for 230, or is it just luck of the draw at this time?
jemcclain1 Posted August 17, 2011 #22 Posted August 17, 2011 Knightrider are you sure you saw 230 back at CP. Cause this morning I could have sworn I saw it at Zerega when I went for Simulator training. I also saw a brand new Novabus LFSA bus number 0059.
Metro CSW Posted August 18, 2011 #23 Posted August 18, 2011 I also saw a brand new Novabus LFSA bus number 0059. WHAT!!!!! :eek::eek:
aemoreira81 Posted August 18, 2011 #24 Posted August 18, 2011 WHAT!!!!! :eek::eek: It was mentioned a while back on BusChat; this bus should be demoing on the M15 in a week or two for 30 days. This will be a preview for the next 328-artic order. As for 230---it has definitely left the building; it's now at West Farms and decaled New York City Bus.
