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). 

Still 9, actually. 5108 is running today. 5090 was supposed to but crapped out. FB keeps 20.

Soon to be all done with RTSes with lower flipdot screens by the window. Every RTS in the fleet came that way, with the switch in the 1998 order to the higher display. Then all of the 1997-1998s and most of the 1996s were modified during their service for the high display. This was also true with the Orion V and D60HF orders. Some reason the 49xx 1998s (most, at least) kept their lower displays.
