jayden 973 Posted December 30, 2011 Share #1 Posted December 30, 2011 I just spoke with my friend from market st. & he said they are getting Oradell's 186 line which Oradell will discontinue in January's pick. its gets interesting tho bc he said that he already received word that they are gonna get the rest of newton ave 5300's for the line which is like 15 of em. so that means no more suburban nabi's at newton ave which is kind of upsetting bc they do at least deserve to keep some of em.

So that may explain why some NABIs from Ironbound and Hilton have been seen down here. Is NJT doing a bus shuffle around the system? What will replace these NABIs at Newton? Will Newton get more new NABIs to replace the 5300s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the 186 was at Wayne, they ran MCI Cruisers. Why downgrade the type of bus [switching from MCI cruisers to NABI Suburbans] due to the garage switch? Shouldn't the 186 continue to use MCIs ? The line's riders might rebel over the downgrade.:tdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible the 186 will become an Exact Fare Route? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJokaPlaya Posted December 31, 2011 Share #5 Posted December 31, 2011 The 186 will be just like all the GWB lines at Market Street: Full Service and use either NABI or MCI's. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayden 973 Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share #11 Posted January 6, 2012 it looks like the 5300's from newton ave. have arrived at Market St. I saw 5377 on the 178 & 5379 on the 182 at Hackensack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotham Bus Co. Posted January 8, 2012 Share #12 Posted January 8, 2012 I just spoke with my friend from market st. & he said they are getting Oradell's 186 line which Oradell will discontinue.... Your wording suggests that garage-level management at Oradell chose to end all #186 service; garage-level management at Market Street then chose to take over #186 service; and each garage is a separate and distinct business entity. Not so. The routes belong to (NJT) NJT, not to the individual garages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
