eli Posted May 2, 2009 Share #14 Posted May 2, 2009 Shot 407 on the Q60. Still with New York City Bus labeling and Gun Hill Depot stickers. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/aemoreira81/MTA/Regional%20Bus/407.jpg Well maybe is still New York City Bus labeling and Gun Hill Depot stickers because it was just a recent transfer.

aemoreira81 Posted May 2, 2009 Share #15 Posted May 2, 2009 Well maybe is still New York City Bus labeling and Gun Hill Depot stickers because it was just a recent transfer. Not an excuse; at College Point, the O5s transferred were not only re-lettered to MTA Bus, but had their front numbers moved down to JUST ABOVE the headlights, off the stripe. They came in with NYC Bus lettering and then went into service within a day or two with MTA Bus lettering and MTA Bus-style numbering. Case in point: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/aemoreira81/MTA/Regional%20Bus/6020-W.jpg and compare to http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/aemoreira81/MTA/Regional%20Bus/6020-D.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Trainman Posted May 2, 2009 Share #16 Posted May 2, 2009 LGA does the same thing. When ever a new arrival comes in to LGA, they have LGA stickers waiting for the New arrival. The NYCT part is gone and MTA Bus labels are installed with in seconds!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Charles Posted May 3, 2009 Share #18 Posted May 3, 2009 I recently rode 116 on the Q60; the Orion 5.501s seem to be holding up well. How long can they go? And btw, are there any Orions at bus that still have coach seating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
