Seems 5189 (Last ran out of Grand Avenue in early November I think?) is not scrapped; I saw it doing driver training a few blocks away from Zerega in the Bronx today. I assume it's now a Zerega bus as opposed to being scrapped?

Another thing is that 5188 was scrapped in late October IIRC, but I saw that one on the move today also, heading west down Bruckner Boulevard by Tremont Ave... Wasn't being towed or anything and it didn't have any obvious signs of heading to Eastchester, so I assume it;s in the same situation as 5189?

Most likely part of the reserve fleet for the L line shutdown.

Both 5188, 5189 are Zerega training buses

These are the only Orion left at West Farms. 

7685, 7755, 7759, 7762-7763, 7766, 7769-7770, 7772, 7774

7781, 7783, 7785-7786, 7788, 7790-7797, 7802-7805, 7809-7819

 

There are quite a errors here. This is the active list:

7685, 7753-7754, 7756, 7761-7763, 7766-7767, 7770-7771, 7775, 7778-7780, 7783-7786, 7788-7789, 7791-7795, 7801-7805, 7808-7811, 7813-7819.

subtract 7753, 7761, 7767, 7771, 7775, 7779, 7784, 7801, 7808 if you consider the ones parked at eastchester "scrapped"

 When I put the active list it was 32 buses. They recently updated it again. So now it only  shows 29.

So this is the active list. You might wanna check for yourself.

7685, 7762-7763, 7766, 7770

7781, 7783, 7785-7786, 7788, 7791-7795, 7802-7805, 7809-7811, 7813-7819

Cannot wait. RTS are way past their prime, time to go. I won't miss those packed buses where you can't even walk.

Just saw that bus 2 days ago in service. Damn that was fast

It had a road call on the day Calvin reported that but from what I see it's still rostered at Tuskegee.

That said that bus seems to have been having problems (IIRC it was out for a whole week recently) so i suppose to only course of action is to wait and see
