B36 Via Ave U Posted September 1, 2012 Share #3 Posted September 1, 2012 Yea they're slapping Ad's on a lot of them, 367, 384, 419, 418 etc, 450 looks smokin with 968 in the background, 433 and 5973 are great as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aemoreira81 Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share #6 Posted September 1, 2012 I thought they had to wait 30 days b4 putting ads on buses bcause of the paint I've seen buses given ads almost on delivery. Some of the mid-5900s got ads after only a day or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted September 1, 2012 Share #7 Posted September 1, 2012 I hope to find one of these on the M15..... This begs the question though, would these buses evidently kick out the 1996 RTSs from 126? Being that there are only a handful left there.

Future ENY OP Posted September 1, 2012 Share #8 Posted September 1, 2012 I've seen buses given ads almost on delivery. Some of the mid-5900s got ads after only a day or two. . Now this begs the question.. Will they (JG) slap ads on the side of these buses in the near future, at least on the drivers side. Just seen a front ad on 401 yesterday on the 68.

West Farms already has side ads on at least 5 of their C40LFs; last week, I posted 294 with a side ad a week or two ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The panels (on the new buses anyway) come white from the factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHV9218 Posted September 1, 2012 Share #11 Posted September 1, 2012 Excellent shots and catches. I hope to find one of these on the M15..... This begs the question though, would these buses evidently kick out the 1996 RTSs from 126? Being that there are only a handful left there. Hoping so as well...I'd bet on it too, the MTA has wanted those 1996s out of Manhattan for a while. Shame though, I remember those buses when they were at Quill, Manhattanville, the like. Now this begs the question.. Will they (JG) slap ads on the side of these buses in the near future, at least on the drivers side. Just seen a front ad on 401 yesterday on the 68. Why not? They can fit the BusTime ads, they can fit normal ads. The only C40s that I don't think can do front ads are the 100-200s and SC's batch, since those have the license plate to the left of the headlights where the ad would go.

The license plate on buses 185-319 and 491-528 can be moved to fit front ads. 529 and higher won't get front ads because they're MTA Bus units. As for the 1996 Novas, there are only five remaining in Manhattan Division. I suspect that the older artics will also be finished at MHV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
