What about the older Orion VIIs? The CNG ones out of WF did. They like the warmth of the engine area plus ppl leaving garbage on the bus makes the perfect environment for them. There's nothing to be concerned about if you're a rider. It's just nasty when one comes out in the open from time to time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamaica depot was the first Queens depot to get RTS right? It would be dope that Jamaica was the 1st and last depot with Queen's RTS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 7357, 7362, 7363 are left at ENY. 7357 and 7362 were working ENY lines this morning. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BDNQ2345 Posted April 11, 2019 Share #1984 Posted April 11, 2019 That's means we're down with MJQ and FB, and i think Flatbush might be the last Depot in the city to finish off the last RTS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABOGbrooklyn Posted April 11, 2019 Share #1986 Posted April 11, 2019 This means UP is about to be the most boring Depot with all the same bus. Still glad the RTS will be going. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it, MJQ is looking to be the last depot, as more artics and lfs comes in. More buses are being pushed to to Brooklyn to displace their rts. Remember fb is getting artics for some of the B46 as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was reasoning that since Flatbush has a solid 40 RTS, Ulmer Park and MJQ were eventually fall off. Ulmer Park and MJQ have around 20 RTS, while Flatbush has 20 more than both of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion6025 Posted April 12, 2019 Share #1991 Posted April 12, 2019 Rather slow day in retirements for jamaica and Ulmer after the dramatic previous few days. Only 5006 carted off to scrap (so far) from Ulmer. Jamaica's 4 all ran today and it remains to be seen if they make it thru the weekend (all are OOS it seems so i wouldn't count on it, but what do i know about jamaica depot operations). In the meantime, FB has gotten started; 4952-4953, 4959, 5036, 5144 retired today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Future ENY OP Posted April 15, 2019 Share #1997 Posted April 15, 2019 Slow weekend with RTS scrapping in the Brooklyn Division. Things should pick up later this week. Bronx NG’s are starting to come into Flatbush. So far 2 from Kingsbridge, and possibly more to come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk why MJQ likes the RTS so much, would have expected Manhattan to get rid of the RTS before all of the other boroughs..
