5232 crashed near the PABT. I'm guessing it'll most likely be scrapped based on how the bus looks after the crash.

Hope everyone is okay :)

Yeah its done. Black paint time. A fairview bus right ?

Yeah its a Fairview bus. Most likely won't be repaired since the NABIs will retire in a few years.

Damn, how many of these got retired already? These buses are barely a decade old....

Actually not many about 10 out of a 1,300 bus order not bad at all. Some are 11-12 years old the 5200's Most were crashes and at least one burnt up.

11 buses damaged from accidents and 2 buses that are training. I can name most on how they got damaged:

5232, 5375, 5700, 6545: accident

5612, 5784: collision with each other

5757: not sure exactly I think corrosion from sea water or something I heard

5230, 5919: not damaged but are only used for training.  5919 had a failed inspection as ik from corrosion or something

5998: collided with garbage truck

6072: hit by train

6101: caught fire

6348: hit tree

That is about right I figured close to 10 not bad.

5201 apparently retired from Washington Twp & is being donated to a South Jersey hospital as a mobile grocery store.

Do you mean this?
