Those three buses were inspected today at Blackwood, but I have the fleet numbers as 20059, 20061 and 20062. I think my VINs may be off by two. I have a feeling some of the VINs (two to be exact) are for later buses in the order. I know they used to do a lot of that (if you look at the production charts for the 2001-2003 cruisers, the fleet numbers are all over the place). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you didn't have to tag all of us. Shuttling health-workers. Academy is not running no commuter service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemackey Posted April 16, 2020 Share #630 Posted April 16, 2020 All of the remaining Wayne cruisers have now reported to that garage and some are running in revenue for the first time today on the 161, 190 and 194 routes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were two vehicles I had as NJT buses but are in fact not. The VINs were -LP015768 and -LP015769. This brings the three Blackwood inspected buses under their proper VINs. Corrections made to CPTDB Wiki. Last delivered unit is 20062, -LP015800. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemackey Posted April 29, 2020 Share #634 Posted April 29, 2020 VINs now confirmed through Carfax for units that would take us to Bus 20167. These have not been built yet - can't imagine 100 buses sitting in Pembina, but I can imagine that when the plant reopens it is going to be a frenzy of activity to get these buses built and delivered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemackey Posted May 26, 2020 Share #635 Posted May 26, 2020 Pembina appears to have reopened. Buses are tracking out of there once more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemackey Posted June 2, 2020 Share #636 Posted June 2, 2020 As noted last week, buses are now being built again in Pembina, and deliveries of new buses have resumed. Here is the latest update: * 20059 and 20060 are in revenue as of yesterday out of Ironbound Garage. * Multiple buses have been delivered to ADD in Piscataway over the weekend including 20065 and 20068. * State inspections have not resumed as of yet. * Buses through 20084 have been built. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemackey Posted June 24, 2020 Share #650 Posted June 24, 2020 Two more buses were inspected yesterday but there are a bunch of them now sitting over in Ironbound. There were about ten over at Atlantic Detroit Diesel yesterday, but some of them might have been already inspected and moved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
