If that’s the case I’m immediately putting in for field salary work. I despise those low floor MCIs. Now if they came without, like a D4520 model I saw testing, then maybe I’ll change my tune 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

553 Bridgeton Posted May 30, 2022 Share #2937 Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) Same with the CRT it’s basically a J series with the height of a D4500CT. As of now NJT is working with MCI to change the drivers area for the D45 CRT LE. NJT spec team is looking to change a lot. The first D45 CRT will go to Egg Harbor/Washington Twp/Newton Av and Meadowlands, which push the 18000s to Market St and Wayne. I honestly think they should put 4008-4044 in Market Street.

davemackey Posted June 1, 2022 Share #2938 Posted June 1, 2022 Back to the 22000 series.... 22018 22087 and 22088 inspected today. The Winnipeg flight of buses (22056-22088) is done for NJT, all those VINs are now confirmed (and in numerical order, too). I don't know who's building the Academy buses at this point; there are supposed to be 30. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemackey Posted June 2, 2022 Share #2939 Posted June 2, 2022 22013, 22017 and 22084 now active out of Oradell Garage, or today, the mall parking lot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys have the updated ISX12s 19150s on up. The low 19000s you have are just like the 18000s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawrence St Posted June 3, 2022 Share #2943 Posted June 3, 2022 This may sound stupid but why did transit decide that giving the private carriers new buses first was a higher priority then replacing their own fleet first? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea behind those (and they were all test buses) was that almost every garage that was scheduled to get cruisers would get two of the 2019 units with the X12 engine. Wayne, Ironbound, Howell, Meadowlands, and Newton Ave. I guess Washington Twp. was left out of that batch as they already had all the buses they needed. And Oradell wasn't even supposed to get new buses. That way, when the 20000's came out exclusively using the X12 engine (ISX engines were discontinued), the garages were ready to support them. (For the record, 17185 was the first bus built with the X12 for NJT, although the VIN says it has an ISX-12.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemackey Posted June 16, 2022 Share #2947 Posted June 16, 2022 All buses 22056-22088 now in service. This was the Winnipeg portion of the NJT-branded coaches. Last two, -087 and -088, went live today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
