  1. This is a image of 4186 that's already on the list but to show how the parts bus looks like at JFK. With many Next Generation units present at said depot, whatever is needed gets recycled from this 1 unit. Not just this unit but out of units being retired, one is used and saved from this matter. https://imgur.com/a/d97JDXP
  2. They are getting back to the Baisley Park order but not at a instant (fast) speed rate. 9006 is present at the JFK vendor.
  3. A note to all who rides, photographs the system to be careful out there. Especially not to stand very close to the platform as you'll never know what you'll come across. Earlier today, at 7:16 PM at Kings Highway on the . It was shouted from three individuals on the train at three of the eight cars in the back of the Coney Island side, a man went and slapped two seperate woman and a male was punched between Newkirk Plaza and Avenue M. As the train got to Kings Highway, riders shouted to not have the train leave the station to avoid more trouble that'll go on and exits were blocked so, the police can be on their way that happened 10 minutes responded. At that time, the suspect was held by three other indivduals so, that way officers are there to take the suspect away.
  4. 4088 and 4038 are also retired at LGA alongside 3 units posted this week.
  5. That’s actually scrapped a long time ago. 3150 is the unit active at Far Rockaway.
  6. At Staten Island's St. George Ferry terminal, you'll see a lot of Novabus LFS leaving and arriving the stop (all out of NYCT). Nowadays, in Queens, the diverse will be similar at Jamaica Av with the New Flyers and Novas arriving and leaving stops during the rush hour (NYCT and MTA Bus). It's interesting seeing the recent New Flyer XD-40 on the Q54 and Q9 arrive and depart at the same time. But, a visible difference is the rear door how it opens and close. Same with a LFS on the Q8 and Q30 heading to Jamaica-LIRR station.
  7. 1942 has now been moved to these 4 units as another 5 car train: 1959-1958-1957 and 1954.
  8. This past weekdays and up to today on a Friday, due to the ending and starting at E. 180 St, the three late PM rush trains that were scheduled to Utica Av were extended to New Lots Av. There was only 5 minute holds only at Van Siclen Av.
  9. It can happen to any unit that isn’t well enough to continue service. 4037 and 4081 are examples.
  10. Do you mean Version 2 screens on regular: local/SBS buses and Express? If so, then the regulars have the Next Stop and ad to it like a rectangle but the Express is square shaped but the Next Stop shows first then the ad blinks a few minutes later. Also, some version 3 screens are on Next Gens with square shapes that won't last long. For number screen differences, pictures are shown in link, colors on the screen border, text are the differences and voices: https://twitter.com/Grantcity900K/status/1033826718329528322/photo/1 -> Version 2, Vianova https://foursquare.com/v/mta-mabstoa-bus-bx23--bx26--bx28--bx29--bx38--q50--bxm7-at-bartow-avenue--coop-city-blvd-section-3--4/4df17a51d22d8c5470d56fad?openPhotoId=5d8d38cd3251e10007306091 -> Version 3, Clever Devices https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/33/MTA_Bus_653_Interior_Displays_02_-_Parsons_%26_84th_Dr.jpg -> Version 4, Luminator
