R188 7857 Posted February 2, 2013 Share #1 Posted February 2, 2013 Well first, I saw a freshly decaled OG CNG #7785 without depot stickers on the BQE. It had two pieces of paper stuck to the outside with its number. Probably a deadhead. Second, I saw a codebreak on an MCI. Drove past with Q100 sign xD.

jgood6195 Posted February 2, 2013 Share #2 Posted February 2, 2013 #7785 is likely coming back from GA CMF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

User Posted February 2, 2013 Share #7 Posted February 2, 2013 Its lovely how people report things and don't have images or proof to back things up. I mean in general, not specifically this post. Anyway, you didn't say what direction the OG CNG or the MCI was traveling on the BQE, and where on the BQE you spotted these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the engine gets rebuilt (all the CNG engines get rebuilt when they come to grand), we take the bus on the highway for a test drive. We deactivate the speed limiter run them to make sure that they are running properly and that they have adequate power. Than they bring them back to make sure nothing is leaking. If everything is ok, the bus is returned to its depot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorgor Posted February 2, 2013 Share #9 Posted February 2, 2013 Its lovely how people report things and don't have images or proof to back things up. I mean in general, not specifically this post. Anyway, you didn't say what direction the OG CNG or the MCI was traveling on the BQE, and where on the BQE you spotted these. And what exactly would be the benefit of making this kind of stuff up and posting it here? He said he saw it on the BQE so I would assume that he was driving at the time and couldn't take out a camera for obvious reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he could at least give some more information such as location (ie. between what exits) and what direction the bus was going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4P3607 Posted February 2, 2013 Share #11 Posted February 2, 2013 Shouldn't this be in the BUS - Random Thoughts Thread? and I hope they don't give 7785 that cheap arial font numbering like they've been doing lately with repainted buses, it really looks tacky.

Okay, the Orion VII CNG was traveling towards Queens just before the bridge. The MCI was NOT on the BQE, it was traveling towards manhattan on the LIE.

Turbo19 Posted February 3, 2013 Share #24 Posted February 3, 2013 Yeah, I had him recently Awesome. That's a lie. I am very informative. On the contrary. Rarely do you provide any detail and background to your posts. This Thursday night you made at least 100 posts. All of then excluding about five were extremely redundant or provided no information what so ever. Furthermore before the night ended, someone decided to grow a pair and started calling out members among other things. I still get a headache remembering all that bullshit. You can make the effort when you want to as seen in topics that you are so passionate about, you just need to apply those efforts into all your posts. Maybe then you would be better understood, or at the very least tolerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
