I can assume now that Flatbush and MJQ will be splitting the 43xx buses. I thought 4336 made the move this morning. Don’t forget 5179 went to the scrap yard today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, as of today, I believe the count is 47. 15 days left is about 3 buses per day. On a side note....who would've thought the legacy fleet would have a countdown date? 😭 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Posted April 26, 2019 Share #2074 Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) If May 10 does speak the fact that RTS is gone, then all the originality is no longer there. -Seats were reduced, but, with a bright side of USB ports.

Coney Island Av Posted April 26, 2019 Share #2075 Posted April 26, 2019 While FB and MJQ have been mass retiring the RTS as of late, it's been slow the last few days for Ulmer Park. 4996 and 5090 are both out right now on the B6 and B3 respectively and it remains to be seen if the last eight RTS out of Ulmer make it through the weekend (knowing MTA, they probably won't). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
