Ultimategamer12c Posted April 21, 2021 Share #2903 Posted April 21, 2021 2910 is left it's the last flipdot that's in service atm. Could be retired by today or tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTABusTransitFanner Posted April 21, 2021 Share #2904 Posted April 21, 2021 2926 is now retired. As of today, the era of the MTA operating buses originally owned and bought by the private bus line has come to an end! This now ends the era of the Bronx operating D4500s and flipdots(2826 retired earlier) 2910 is still active as of now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q39 to Ridgewood Posted April 26, 2021 Share #2913 Posted April 26, 2021 2910 ran on the QM1 earlier this morning, so it is not scrapped yet. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I was going to put a post on here yesterday asking if anyone knew if this unit was confirmed as legitimately retired or not as the wording of the previous posts only suggested it was heading to scrap, not confirming it was. There's been quite a few situations in the past with one or two units left of a retiring series that sticks around for a while longer. (174 & 180, 6333 & 6025, 9849, 6432, 6600 etc) I knew I should have asked but waited to see if anyone was going to confirm, my gut feeling pushing me. Would have been out there this morning lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHV9218 Posted April 27, 2021 Share #2916 Posted April 27, 2021 How about 1305-1306? Those buses outlived the entire fleet by, what, almost a year? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is visible from the westbound Grand Central Pky. west of Francis Lewis Blvd. looking to the right (opposite the gas station). IIRC it is a former NYCT 18XX.

That bus is assigned to NYPD Highway Patrol Division 3 (Queens).. I believe NYPD Highway Division 2 (Brooklyn) also has a MCI (Correction needed if I'm wrong) I did spot a MCI at a protest at Barclays sometime last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
