If they do have any, I don't blame them for not running them. Those buses are pretty old.

 

They only have about 4 or 5 of them. CP uses the 1 it has almost all the time

Yeah whenever I'm on the BM1 or BM3, all I see on the local lines that SC runs are those Orions.

Well that's because the SC fleet is 99% Orion. 100% in service.

True, but it's still funny that I have yet to see one of those other buses out of SC considering how often I'm in Brooklyn.

lol... I thought they were in service based on trainfan's quote and just weren't using them. So what gives? What are they doing with them? :confused:
