553 Bridgeton Posted June 4, 2015 Share #1476 Posted June 4, 2015 Um guys...... 5303 is on the 67. Yes a NABI is on the 67 right now. Something isn't right here.... Do you have a location of that bus? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaTransitMan4608 Posted June 4, 2015 Share #1477 Posted June 4, 2015 Do you have a location of that bus?This morning it was heading to Newark, I caught it on MyBusNow after it just left Union Hill. I thought my eyes were playing with me and I was seeing 7303, but I checked twice. It was 5303 all right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlashThunder Posted June 7, 2015 Share #1478 Posted June 7, 2015 Saw some D4500's/4000's at Meadowlands graveyard where old CNG buses are stored. Any reason why they are there? (except for the bus that got destroyed by fire in Old Bridge) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
553 Bridgeton Posted June 7, 2015 Share #1479 Posted June 7, 2015 Those buses are buses that they dont want to find parts for so they park them. Its more of they dont wana waste time finding parts for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cait Sith Posted June 9, 2015 Share #1482 Posted June 9, 2015 Totally forgot that Howell covers the 321 in the morning. I got blindsided with CNGs on it while I was en route to Hartford. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
553 Bridgeton Posted June 9, 2015 Share #1483 Posted June 9, 2015 So they can't afford ordering parts? WTH NJT?!?! No budget for maintenance?? Basically. They dont want to give mechanics overtime. Sad thing is Academy find these exact parts for the state buses with no issue. Ever notice how little Academy state buses break down? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever notice how little Academy state buses break down? I praise Academy for that, being a diesel mechanic for the Army. They take good care of their fleet. Its somewhat embarrassing for a private carrier to outsource NJT for vehicle parts... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cait Sith Posted June 24, 2015 Share #1490 Posted June 24, 2015 Seen 5326 on the 126....and 7108 on the 320. Looks like Meadowlands is yanking buses for service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen NABI's on 128 tonight from 5200's, 5300's and 6200's (where did this come from...?) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a pointless switch, 5326 is a Washington Twp bus which was swapped for 5388. It was an even exchange but still wonder what the reason was for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
553 Bridgeton Posted June 25, 2015 Share #1493 Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) 7108 was a Howell driver i was next to that bus on my 319. Edited June 25, 2015 by 553 Bridgeton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Posted June 30, 2015 Share #1494 Posted June 30, 2015 What's the difference between the Hudson Bergen LightRail and Newark LightRail? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted June 30, 2015 Share #1495 Posted June 30, 2015 What's the difference between the Hudson Bergen LightRail and Newark LightRail? Counties, for one. Hudson-Bergen meaning Bergen County and Hudson County and Newark Light Rail in Essex County is actually the Newark City Subway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silk City Transit Posted July 1, 2015 Share #1497 Posted July 1, 2015 Counties, for one. Hudson-Bergen meaning Bergen County and Hudson County and Newark Light Rail in Essex County is actually the Newark City Subway. Not to mention the fact that the HBLR doesn't actually service Bergen County [yet] but that's a whole other discussion; -) Newark Light Rail used to be called the Newark City Subway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfs NJT459 Posted July 1, 2015 Share #1498 Posted July 1, 2015 what are the odds, this morning MyBusNow shows 7783 is on the 6:25am 315 towards Philly and 7784 is on the 7:13am 510 to Cape May then it will be the 8:15am 316 to Philly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BM5 via Woodhaven Posted July 2, 2015 Share #1500 Posted July 2, 2015 I think boycotting service is a bit unnecessary. http://www.nj.com/traffic/index.ssf/2015/07/nj_transit_boycott_urged_by_social_media_campaign.html#comments These "transit advocates" need to chill out. I agree. While service may not be the best, there are places that can be improved. However, there are things that can't be done.because of unpredictability or other factors. I believe most, if not all the NEC and the lines coming into Penn are owned by AMTRAK, and that's where priority comes into play. It's their tracks, so they have the right to prioritize AMTRAK Trains. If it can be adjusted, then maybe a schedule change would be of help. However, boycotting is not going to help. Fare hikes are inevitable because of everyday inflation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
