transit bx Posted September 16, 2012 Share #5 Posted September 16, 2012 From what i heard is that you guys are suppose to get all three of our express lines, where as we may get two or three locals from you guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 16, 2012 Share #6 Posted September 16, 2012 Too many to tell....but this comes out of the Union office.....so it's alittle more than just a bus driver or a friend saying it!! It's still not "official" until it's reflected in an actual pick. Is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QM1to6Ave Posted September 16, 2012 Share #7 Posted September 16, 2012 Would this mean more MCI's at CP? I hope my favorite B/O's stay on the QM1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted September 16, 2012 Share #8 Posted September 16, 2012 Is this going to affect the amount of new buses CP gets for their local routes? And how's LGA going to cover the local routes (as they don't run CNG buses), take the hybrids from SC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted September 16, 2012 Share #9 Posted September 16, 2012 Is this going to affect the amount of new buses CP gets for their local routes? And how's LGA going to cover the local routes (as they don't run CNG buses), take the hybrids from SC? I wouldn't say it would affect the amount of the new buses (C40LFs) as they'll be 20 short after the V CNGs are gone, so this all kinda makes sense. LGA might get the hybrids and some RTSs to fill in the gap. But of course, we'll have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted September 17, 2012 Share #12 Posted September 17, 2012 Q66 was a former QSC route, aka originally CP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewFlyer 230 Posted September 17, 2012 Share #13 Posted September 17, 2012 I think LGA should either take the Q19 or Q38 back. CP is losing all their locals soon it's going to be the Q25,Q34,Q64 and Q65 left. They lost the Q50 for good and is going to put the Q66 in harms way at LGA.

T J Trainman Posted September 17, 2012 Share #14 Posted September 17, 2012 Oh lawd here we go again........I freakin knew something was up when ECH got all of the Q-50!!!!! Smh. Yeah I very much see this happening Q-19/38/66 to LGA.. I agree this has been discusssed to death. Very simple ECH storage RTSs and probably some of SC O-7 garbage. <---- Formerly LGAs Garbage.

Fresh Pond Posted September 17, 2012 Share #15 Posted September 17, 2012 I didn't know the 66/38/19 were ex-LGA. When did they leave LGA? The 19 & 38 left about a year or 2 ago at the same time the 67 went from CP to LGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T J Trainman Posted September 22, 2012 Share #20 Posted September 22, 2012 @QM1Avia6th Ave, If CP were to get the QM-12 CP would need approx 15 of more (LGAs) MCIs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted September 22, 2012 Share #22 Posted September 22, 2012 Probably to the Bronx or either one of the Brooklyn depots (probably SC). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
