UlmerPark B6 Posted December 24, 2008 Share #426 Posted December 24, 2008 There is a serious swap going on MJQs 50 & 5100S are going to FLA. the FLA 5000s are going to MJQ. It's due to the fact that these buses have cameras and they do not want a repeat of the B46 incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainfan22 Posted January 3, 2009 Share #431 Posted January 3, 2009 Slightly off topic but Orion V 6020 is at collage point. Looks like some 1999 Orion V's are starting to make their way to MTA bus too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UlmerPark B6 Posted January 8, 2009 Share #434 Posted January 8, 2009 As of today, there are only 2 running UPK suburbans. The rest are either at the depot or transferred to Bus. The ones without suburban seats like 9301, 9305, 9314, 9324, 9330 are gonna be the last ones to be transfered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q25toJamaica Posted January 10, 2009 Share #437 Posted January 10, 2009 Hasnt some 8400 been at LGA for a while now? 847X maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Trainman Posted January 11, 2009 Share #438 Posted January 11, 2009 LGA at one time did have 8466 a while ago, maybe last summer? It never saw passenger service at LGA. Right now 8466 is at ECH. 8476 is at the Baisley Park depot.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Trainman Posted January 11, 2009 Share #439 Posted January 11, 2009 The 3 winners are 8429, 8460, & 8468 at LGA. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petabread Posted January 12, 2009 Share #441 Posted January 12, 2009 I would assume they're here for the 80xx, 81xx, 82xx and 83xx buses at LGA but the way I look at it, anything old at LGA has the possibility of scrapping due to subpar maintenance.

T J Trainman Posted January 13, 2009 Share #442 Posted January 13, 2009 I have another correction sorry fellas 8460, 8468, 8560, & 9327 are all now at the LGA depot. 8560 now has MTA Bus with LGA stickers on it. The same with 9327 hard seats etc.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Trainman Posted January 16, 2009 Share #443 Posted January 16, 2009 Is there any reason why 9331 is at MHV? Is there a reason why 9332 with about 5 other soft seaters from U.P. are now at the Jamaica depot? 9332 still has the soft seats etc, was seen in service on the Q-17 on Thursday night by a friend of mine. This is weird.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bee Flexible #823 Posted January 18, 2009 Share #445 Posted January 18, 2009 The buses are at Jamaica because Ulmer Park wanted those buses out of their depot all together because they now have 5075-5099 (perhaps more, up to 5124) and because they are next to receive the NGs. Also, Jamaica is probably trying to fill up a shortage of buses so they were sent there for the time being. Once the NGs head their way, then you will "probably" see the rest of those 9300s heading over to LGA. As far as why 9331 is at MHV, I have no clue on that 1.

UlmerPark B6 Posted January 27, 2009 Share #449 Posted January 27, 2009 Tj, not many updates, except that all previous suburbans at UPK are now at LGA or Bus, except for 9301, 9305, 9309, 9314, 9324, and 9330. Those are set to go at a later time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
