Quote

The #MCIteam is happy to announce the completion of the delivery of 1,222 D4500 coaches to New Jersey Transit. The smooth and successful delivery was possible due to the high bar set for quality at the MCI manufacturing facility.

This delivery marked a milestone 4000th #MCIcoach delivered to New Jersey Transit. For over 40 years, New Jersey Transit has been relying on MCI's #reliabilityDRIVEN vehicles, having started our productive partnership in 1982 with the order of the “MC9” model.

What the hell is going on with the former CUSA 6000 series NABI's?? Some haven't even been at their new garage for 2 months and already are getting sent back to CUSA, what was the point of getting them in the first place??

Heard from a post from this forum ONE Bus was complaining about not having enough buses so transit sent 6041, 6048, 6050, and 6193 back that Ik.

And this is why money is wasted. All that money spent to get them and transfer them under NJT only to transfer them back. Makes no sense.

Don’t think logic when it comes to njt. They do stupid things. They waste money on nonsense it never put the money where it needs to go.

22901 is now running on the 457. It had been exclusive to the 452 since it went into service. Now does 22903 take over on the 452 for comparison purposes?

There are now three XE40s 22901-22903 running.  Apparently the 450, 453 and 457 were added to their exclusivity routes.  I think they tried to use them on the 455 but for some reason, it was pulled.

Oradell has returned to Garden State Plaza because of the apparent storm that's coming. It's always great and nostalgic of seeing both of those Metro D Transits, #1872 and #1885. Ahhh memories of riding coach 1885 on Market Street routes. I miss them Metro Bs and Ds

all are at Oradell I believe so likely 20 or 30. I'm not sure the exact though.

These are the remaining Oradell buses, near as I can tell. 

7412, 7586, 7605, 7668, 7690, 7695, 7703, 7705, 7712, 7718, 7727, 7229, 7750, 7755, 7781, 7823, 7853, 7859, 7866, 7870, 7881, 7926, 8033, and 8270.

7726 and 8979 are also active. 7726 happens to be tracking at Howell right now; think it might have covered a trip on the 139. Similar thing with 7755 yesterday; it was returned later in the night.
Is 7989 still around? Something out of Howell has been tracking with that number, but it seems to be a particularly lousy tracker since it keeps jumping to random locations.

19131/19133-34 transferred to EHT

18064/18069/18071 transferred to Newton

18069 currently on the 317

19126-19150 will be EHT buses in the coming weeks.

Its a mileage swap. 

Which 18000s will be going to Newton?
