NovaBus 5121 Posted July 12, 2012 Share #77 Posted July 12, 2012 Not sure if this was posted, haven't posted in a while but 7578 and 7579 were overhauled, saw both of them riding back to back on Flushing and Williamsburg St S about an hour ago. Assuming they are coming from Grand Avenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming they are coming from Grand Avenue. Yep. 7573 and 7583 were sent over to Grand today. 7579 (?), 7580 and 7610 came back. For those keeping score, the last blackback CNG OG is sadly leaving Grand bleached! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming they are coming from Grand Avenue. 7579, 7580, 7610 were the ones you saw being driven back to Gleason. I was in 7610 (the last of the 3). Also, 7596 ( the Blackback CNG), 7618 and 76xx were also being overhauled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blitz Posted July 19, 2012 Share #86 Posted July 19, 2012 What?! No new engine? Isn't the 8 year the big one? Brand new (remaned) engines only come as needed. Usually they will do an up-grade (rods and pistons) but not even that. The buses imo came in half assed. Zerega's work quality is really slipping...

MHV9218 Posted July 20, 2012 Share #87 Posted July 20, 2012 Is Grand Avenue still doing 8-years or is their status as a CMF not like it used to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted July 28, 2012 Share #88 Posted July 28, 2012 Interestingly enough, no new plates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHV9218 Posted July 28, 2012 Share #89 Posted July 28, 2012 Love this new look on the D60s, hope a few more buses get that look. 5602 was already a whiteback, so they've got a few blackbacks and a ton of whitebacks that could still be decaled like that. 9451 is a fresh overhaul.

Blitz Posted July 30, 2012 Share #92 Posted July 30, 2012 (for some reason the site won't let me edit posts on my comp) Is 5602 decaled like 5635 or painted like 5693?? judging from the stripe on the front, i assume its painted. but i haven't seen the bus in person so i don't know for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like that's what they did here like they're doing on the OGs, I think 5635 was just an oddball white the blue decal and the black decal.

Gong Gahou Posted July 30, 2012 Share #96 Posted July 30, 2012 5602 looks interesting. It still looks weird with that big, blue stripe, but I'll get used to it. Reminds me of the front of the C40LFs. Now that I think about it, what about 5529? Did it get an overhaul, or is it just a repaint? I took this on the beginning of this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the MTA started ordering black paint again? 5602 looks interesting. It still looks weird with that big, blue stripe, but I'll get used to it. Reminds me of the front of the C40LFs. Now that I think about it, what about 5529? Did it get an overhaul, or is it just a repaint? I took this on the beginning of this month. I'd bet it got an overhaul, almost all of the D60s are getting their 8-years now while the RTSes get their (overdue) 12-years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted July 31, 2012 Share #98 Posted July 31, 2012 And now we have two more.... 5547 5526 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHV9218 Posted July 31, 2012 Share #99 Posted July 31, 2012 Excellent catches. I really like how these buses are coming out, I gotta find some of them tomorrow. 5547 looks fantastic, but unfortunately I think this means 5543 and 5575's days in their as-delivered paint are numbered.
