A bus which is probably 19118 was inspected yesterday at Newton Ave. which might be its assignment. Hey Dave and everyone, This morning during the rush I saw coach 19119 on the 190X New York Exp. Wayne garage is already at 52 new coaches thus far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranzitfan81 Posted March 1, 2019 Share #477 Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) It looks like Newton Ave (Camden) is getting their next batch of new buses, 19126 is on the 317 and 19128 is on the 418 Express. However does anyone know what happened to 18126 ? That has been MIA ( Off MyBus now) for almost 2 months.

davemackey Posted March 8, 2019 Share #481 Posted March 8, 2019 N.B. Buses 19119-19127 were delivered with Cummins X12 engines (2017 EPA) and carry the VIN code N for the engine. All other units so far have the old ISX-12 engines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemackey Posted March 9, 2019 Share #483 Posted March 9, 2019 BTW the last bus inspected on Thursday was 19143. 41 buses to go to complete the order and my understanding is they have all been built. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfs NJT459 Posted March 13, 2019 Share #485 Posted March 13, 2019 I thought Newton Ave can't fit all the 45 footer Cruisers and the turns on the 409 are too tight for them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw 18126 running the 317 this morning, in Brick headed towards Philadelphia, so it's probably still out there somewhere by the Joint Base MDL by now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh cool. Thanks, I am guessing maybe the GPS tracker on it isn't working then because it has not been visible on MyBus now for weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemackey Posted March 19, 2019 Share #489 Posted March 19, 2019 19140 is on the 317 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranzitfan81 Posted March 19, 2019 Share #490 Posted March 19, 2019 Up to 19144 is at Newton Avenue; Camden ( I think). 19144 on the 409 . In fact tonight, all of the 409 buses out tonight are all new coaches, the oldest bus that is running tonight is 18129(which is hardly old). No 75s in sight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranzitfan81 Posted March 20, 2019 Share #491 Posted March 20, 2019 I think 19124 is at the Meadowlands garage, it is on the 320 tonight per MyBusnow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Around the Horn Posted March 20, 2019 Share #492 Posted March 20, 2019 So I assume the next batch would be 20xxx for 2020 models? Or is the order completed? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except if option buses are built, the entire NJT order of 184 buses for 2019 models has been built. and are from 19001-19184. About 20 buses are still to be delivered; highest inspected so far is 19162. The 2020's, which will be numbered from 20001 and up, should begin showing up in the fourth quarter, which will be the fourth year of the order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave, i have seen both 18136 and 19137 on both the 317 and 409 in the last two weeks, so they are in service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corrections to the above page with all the VINs will be done as soon as I can get confirmation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
