The only RTS I like, and these are getting retired before the 4900s or any 8000s or 9000s still alive😒. I blame UP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame to see that one bite the dust. I remember the brief stay it had at Quill, was a runner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why several depots got pieces such as Jamaica with #9051, #9053-9056, #9065 and #9070-9073 along with their original order of #8939-8978. Other depots such as Flatbush, Manhattanville, Ulmer Park and 126th St received pieces too. The bus order was split between 8752-8924 (8752-8806 to MV (first wave), 8807-8854 to WA (this was WA's final order of new buses), 8855-8898 (first wave) to GH, 8899-8924 to ENY) and 9075-9249 (9075-9110 to UP, 9111-9139 to OF, 9140-9185 to FP {9140-9149 had CUMM11} 9186-9228 to OS & 9229-9249 to GH (second wave) Express service saw the last 100 buses with 9250-9281 to YUX, 9282-9284 to OHX, 9285-9344 to UPX and 9345-9349 to JAX. The Express assignments in Staten Island was only a two year temporary until the MCI batch started popping in, then they had their cushion seats removed for hard ones which was then assigned to local service and transferred over to JA. Meanwhile, UP's Express buses stood until the MCIs popped in, then assigned to local service and stood there until they was transferred to LGA in 2006-7. OH's service went over to WS (now MQ), then got replaced by Orion V 100 series, and discontinued in 2010 (You know the rest).

GojiMet86 Posted July 6, 2018 Share #1412 Posted July 6, 2018 Though it seems they were there for about two years, I have not seen many photos of the RTS in express service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took photos of them as they was in service from both YU & UP during the 1996-1998 campaign. Matter of fact, the older RTS buses was on the sea of Express routes (including the BMs as well when they was part of Command.). Now you don't see them anymore since they "uniformed" each level of service Edited July 6, 2018 by FLX9304 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was close with FP’s order. As for Quill, it was formerly known as Westside: a combination of the old AM & OH buses that at that time had: M10, M11, M16/34, M23, M42, M27/50, M30/72, M79, M86, M96/106, M98 & M102. The M20 came later its roster had: 4113-4166 (AM & OH) 4508-4553 (OH) 8201-8229 (OH/HP) 8600-8670 (OH/AM) 4834-4853 (HP) the artics & the 5000 series Buses came a year later.

I remember them on the M-15 & M-15 Limited. I remember that 4567 (JAM) had Chicago-style windows. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the very first time, but as years go by, new bus fleets come in & older buses get either shipped elsewhere or scrapped, depending on how old they are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
