The Grizzly Bear Posted July 6, 2023 Share #4702 Posted July 6, 2023 (edited) Let's not post anything listed for scrap unless we are absolutely certain that it is listed to be. So much misinformation being posted and can be rather confusing. If there are parts are off of the bus then it is listed for scrap. Radios and fareboxes can be pulled and replaced back into the buses if needed. The OGs should be first out the door right now. If the NGs are getting scrapped then they have a major issue with them.

It is in service. 4245 from LGA is now listed for scrap. 4245 is yet to be transferred to Eastchester Scrap. The unit is currently at LaGuardia as a parts bus. Also, 4175 is also yet to be transferred to Eastchester Scrap. That unit is also at LaGuardia, possibly used as a parts bus, Edited July 6, 2023 by RSMG106 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually when an incident like this occurs, a bus would head to Eastchester for reports. Edited July 7, 2023 by RSMG106 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it at the Ulmer Park when you posted it? I ask because the link I posted AND confirmed by Eyewitness News at 11 that same reporter was at Eastchester. I can tell by the car passing by (which was kind of high if it was at Ulmer Park) AND that giant...tall billboard (which was shown during the 11 PM newscast) above the bus itself with other buses. Just saying based on the news report...BUT if I'm wrong, then I'm wrong. No worries. Edited July 8, 2023 by The TransitMan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some shots, you can see the other coaches pending scrap there. The newscast in the link provided does end on the note that the bus is repairable. Whether or not the MTA will bother doing the repair is another question. Edited July 8, 2023 by Kingsbridgeviewer382 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I send all prayers to the people who were injured for a full recovery. The driver of the minivan ran past several red lights before crashing onto the Bx9. The driver was saved by people and family who were in the area, and he's well known as the driver lives nearby. Aside from the driver, 3 people from the bus and 3 from a sedan that was in front of the Nova had minor injuries. All are expected to be fine, even the driver of the minivan.

Calvin Posted July 26, 2023 Share #4720 Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) 3125: College Point MCI to scrap at Eastchester. No farebox spotted by the thruway lot. * And a little note, majority of the 2009 Next Generation units reflected to this list as scrap have been removed from the system. The yard has no Next Gens sitting at the lot minus a ex Hale unit out there. Edited July 26, 2023 by Calvin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With fire damage like that, I don't think that will be in service anymore. It may get scrapped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
