The Grizzly Bear Posted March 2, 2023 Share #4456 Posted March 2, 2023 Why aren't these NGs sent to JFK FR or BP to finish off the OGs? These NG Buses are getting retired too quickly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These NG Buses are getting retired too quickly. If I remember correctly, the retired Next Gens few weeks ago or months were not capable to run over to MTA Bus due to the conditions they were in (mileage is part of it). However, the recent ones, 4531 and 4532 were accepted and are able to run to MTA Bus, hence them being sent to LGA. They [JFK] could get a few from LGA like BP with 4204 and 4278 but, it depends if LGA wants to send them there. For now, JFK and BP seem to have the OGs running because the NGs have more problems than their remaining OGs to be retired. They (OGs) might be retired if they have the future Nova order in effect.

If it's a CPTDB issue, mention it on CPTDB. They have a page on their forums for the MTA, which they use to update those wiki sites. They pull some of their info from here, but this forum ain't the place to fix their roster 🤷♂️ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm one the few who edit on CPTDB. I fixed 3389 on CPTDB. I think I may've put it as retired and I didn't see when someone said it was still active. Sorry about that there's a lot of inaccuracies I have to fix on it right now 🥲 I also suggest to not really rely on the CPTDB wiki as well as they might not be accurate and even I can't keep up with all retirements and false alarms. Sorry for the misunderstanding as well. Edited March 3, 2023 by DCTransitFilms 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lately, there are recent Next Gens from NYCT that do not have trackers but they do have their farebox with MTA Bus codes from what I've noticed for past units. 4630 out of LGA is one of them and was spotted doing a run on the Q33 to Roosevelt Av train station. Others such as 4233 and 4601 in different locations. Edited March 5, 2023 by Calvin A note for upcoming Next Gens to be retired 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already knew that tidbit. I only made mention of this as the bus was reported as scrap back in January, but nobody mentioned it moved to JFK on these forums. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, to make sure if it's retired, I would check to see if the unit has a farebox or not or that a MCI out of LGA came to replace it. 3000 scrapped from CP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
