nycbusfan Posted October 7, 2008 Share #2 Posted October 7, 2008 Ok, I just wanna get a lil bus knowledge in me... Related to CNGs/Hybrids (The Hybrids) MaBSTOA uses CNGs ONLY NYCTA/Bus Company Uses Hybrids ONLY if im correct and what about Express bus Mabstoa and NYCT use CNG and Hybrid buses. CNG buses operate out of Jackie Gleason and West Farms while Hybrids operate out of Amsterdam, Casey Stengal, Castleton, East New York, Fresh Pond, Grand Ave., Manhattanville and Queens Village. 7560-7819 are CNG buses 6365-6905 are Hybrids 3800-4649 are Next Generation Hybrids and are currently being delivered. Bus operates hybrids out of all depots that have local lines except college point. 3500-3783 Orion V's used on Spring Creek and College Point express routes are CNG's while all MCI's and Orion V's at Far Rockaway are powered by diesel.
