T J Trainman Posted August 25, 2012 Share #2 Posted August 25, 2012 Um ECH gets the Q-50 regardless next week. The RTSs are going to LGA. Actually not all of the RTSs ECH will be an Orion/ MCI depot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No RTS Nova bus on Bx23 . for CO-OP city riders First of all the MTA doesn't care if the riders hate the RTS as long as they get you from point A to B then they shouldn't care. And I know some don't have AC but tough but in life you can't get everything you want. Sometimes I believe you just hate the RTS. you can't speak for everyone else. How do you know if they hate them did you servey every rider on the Q50 and Bx23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted August 26, 2012 Share #7 Posted August 26, 2012 The only reasons the Orion Vs are at Eastchester is mostly for the Air Conditioning issues with the RTSs from what I know, and to also boot some RTSs to LG and JK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T J Trainman Posted August 26, 2012 Share #10 Posted August 26, 2012 Ok let me "try" to clear some things up here. #1 there are NO A/C issues with the ECH RTSs. #2 ECH is getting 25 orion Vs from CS to be exact. Those O-5s will push ECHs RTSs to LGA and scrap. #3 NOT ALL of the RTSs at ECH depot are going to LGA. Some are for scrap. #4 the RTSs from ECH depot are going to LGA to replace the LGA Orion Vs (Ex Bees) They are already in the beginning stages of scrapping the LGA Orion Vs (LGA Bees). I hope this some what clears it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T J Trainman Posted August 27, 2012 Share #21 Posted August 27, 2012 What R 32 3838 is asking is will BP get the ECH depot batch and the answer is no.LGA is getting MOST but NOT all some will go to scrap. However, BP WILL be getting 1996 RTSs to replace their Bees Im not sure from which depot or when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32 3838 Posted August 27, 2012 Share #22 Posted August 27, 2012 those Bee lines are being replaced starting with LGA, its Obvious that LGA is getting more RTS, Basiley Parks ex bee lines are in better shape but they are also due for retirement their REPLACEMENTS will ether the 3 that im gonna mention 1996 nova RTS (has a better chance), More Hybirds (seems possible) or 2000 D60HF's from NYCT/MabStoa (most likely will not happen) they can only handle 5 at the momnet but THEY can store more artics due to the back lot being modifed, the ex bee line Orion V's are gonna be going this year enjoy em while they are here, and on top of that the MTA WILL be Rehabbing the 1996 Nova RTS to last for 2 more years due to the Orion VII Hybird to Clean Air Diesel conversion and etc., the pilot bus will come out of Spring Creek, and NYCT is getting more New buses so all the leftover (1996 Novas) that are in NYCT will get bumped over the MTA bus or scrap (most of them if not all) just like they did with the 8000's back in 2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric B Posted August 28, 2012 Share #23 Posted August 28, 2012 Why are they rehabbing 1996's instead of sending over the 1997/8's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
