Orion VII 4 Life Posted June 12, 2012 Share #26 Posted June 12, 2012 OF stands for (O)ne (F)orty six street depot. It's what MCH use to be called before they renamed the depot. And I don't know if there are any official plans to move the M102 back to MCH once It's finished, but i assume that they will just take on 126th's routes since It's suppose to close once MCH is up and running. And from what i understand and have seen, the depots that have been as of late are built with enough space to service/repair any kind of bus in the MTA's possesion with the exception of CNG buses. Some of 126th Street's routes can probably go to other depots, and some other depot's routes can probably end up at MCH. I also hear Amsterdam is reopening as well.

WorkerX Posted June 18, 2012 Share #29 Posted June 18, 2012 when 126 clouses and mch/of reopens. whats probably going might happen is: m15,m15sbs and m35, m60 to tg m101/2, m1,m2,m7 to mch/of m116, m103 m104 mv m31 to mgq also, will ncm/of be able to operate artic? I see it more like this M1, M2, M7, M60, M102 to MCH M101/103, M86, M96/106, M15/SBS to TG M31 & M79 to MGQ M116 to MV M35 & M104 to AMS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHV9218 Posted June 19, 2012 Share #31 Posted June 19, 2012 I see it more like this M1, M2, M7, M60, M102 to MCH M101/103, M86, M96/106, M15/SBS to TG M31 & M79 to MGQ M116 to MV M35 & M104 to AMS My bet is that the M96/M106 will head back to MHV. The M60 can't go back since it's being converted to an artic line, so that's off to MCH. The M116 could definitely go to MHV, since that's split already. But if the 15 and 15SBS go to TU, that's now about 180-185 artics at the depot, and I'm not entirely sure how well that'd fit. You'd have to use the the upper floors, and then god knows where the O7s would go. So those I'd bet could go back to MHV, since the depot is currently operating about 30-40 buses under capacity. As for what happens with AMS, I really don't know. The M1 / M7 could go either way, who really knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitz Posted June 19, 2012 Share #32 Posted June 19, 2012 I don't think TU could handle 180 artics. The only depot that get ls close to that is Gunhill (having about 170 artics). Even if you use the top floor for bus parking, I believe they would top out at what they have now which is about 155 buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1447 Posted June 19, 2012 Share #33 Posted June 19, 2012 Anyone knows if MCH will still be Bronx Division or Manhattan? And is the Bx32 / Bx33 going back there, or staying at the Farm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only reason I'm saying this b/c of a easier deadhead downtown vs being at TG. I dunno the real count to how many artics TG has currently. But taking in 126 artics + theirs and taking M101/103, M86, M96/106 could be possible overkill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennyj17 Posted June 20, 2012 Share #35 Posted June 20, 2012 How about 126's SBS Artics go to MJQ with the M15 SBS, by this time MJQ will have a SBS artic fleet on the M34/34A, so they could use those interchangeably. 126's D60HFs to OHS along with the M35 and M79 from MJQ MJQ's OGs to MV with the M104.. M1 M7 M60 M102 M116 all to MCH with along with the remainder of 126's fleet.....LOL RTSs back at MCH YAY!..... I just can't figure out what to do with the M31 maybe it too could fit in a MJQ.
