Its long overdue. Also, any videos of it in action? Dude relax they will update the boards when they have the chance lol. Right now they're worried about just getting the buses in for the shuttle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Statty Posted December 30, 2018 Share #102 Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) 3939 bus has the announcements turned on. It's on M10 right now. Announcements are pretty spot on. Only front screen works, rear is blank. Only grip I have about it is that it says 'underscore' inbetween transfer buses.

Orion6025 Posted January 2, 2019 Share #103 Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) 4038 (LGA) has screens. Rear one is blank, front one is flashing myMTA and LGA airport ads on the right half while the left half is black with blue "WELCOME ABOARD" text displayed. also it smells like someone shat on board this bus..

Around the Horn Posted January 11, 2019 Share #108 Posted January 11, 2019 A lot of the NGs on the S79 are frozen or completely off with only the announcements working 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The screens are either completely off or show the ads. No talking or nothing, you can't even see if the stop request sign was pulled or not. At least with the Novas, the Stop Requested sign on the screens work, along with the ads, but the next stop info is frozen on a stop with no announcements.

A good hand full have them reactivated. 4265, 4269 and a few more. I only see the Nova issue on the the S57 and probably the S54 coming out of the hospital. (It would work fine until it gets out the hospital and then freezes) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares how long it takes. They installed the Version 2s on all the Novas in S.I and boom, they don't work LMAO. What's the difference from not having one and it not working? The ones on the MTA Bus C40LFs are spot on in terms of accuracy leaving and arriving at stops, refresh rates, announcing transfers and more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were probably on one of those Orion NG buses that were used on the M34 with the red-letter text making announcements on the top front of the bus. I don't think those have any correlation to BusTime, so who knows when those were last updated smh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
