The Grizzly Bear Posted May 17, 2023 Share #4652 Posted May 17, 2023 Please remove 4565 from the scrap list. It is still in service at LGA. Whatever repairs that had to be made were made. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're probably Maintenance and Driver Training Buses. I do wonder if there will be any hybrid buses saved for museum purposes. OG or NG or both. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m surprised they haven’t retire them already or transfer them to BP or JFK since they have the remaining Orion VII OG’s. They're probably being kept for driver preferences. A lot of ppl don't like the next gens, including bus operators. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some employees get certain privileges when they've worked with the company for a long time, which is why I named that as a possibility. I could be wrong though. Maybe they're waiting for all the new flyers that went for training to come back, then they'll retire those last two old gens since they would have enough next gens. Idk I'm just guessing. 🤷♂️ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfan22 Posted May 23, 2023 Share #4660 Posted May 23, 2023 Those two old gens are probably still around cause they are good performers, might have been better performers than the NGs that have already been retired from LGA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That did cross my mind before. A good chunk of those next gens at LGA (& MTAB in general) are former NYCT units with high mileage. This would explain why the NGs keep getting retired when you still have OGs roaming around (the ones at LGA are oddballs at this point even if they share common parts with the NGs). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
