In all honesty, when I see someone making a whole big deal about them leaving and making final notices, etc... It's like you're seeking for attention, bro... If you dipping, then don't make any noise about it, just go ...

Wise poster said this: "those that keep saying they are leaving, tend to return back in a short time later. Those that leave say nothing and just stops posting."

But originally was a CS bus when it was in the NYCT

[Cait Sith]

You mean previously

It was a Mother Clara Hale bus originally.

[NewFlyer 230]

I guess so lol

"Hmmm, looks like the MTA is starting to can their 2001 MCIs?" - jgood

 

I think 2128 was a 1999 model... nothing fishy lol.

So 740 is now finally assigned to Far Rockaway. But to anyone that's seen it, does it have the SC stickers?

 

And the CP CNGs are dying out, too. I better get a ride on the Q19 better they leave.

[Grand Concourse]

740 has been on the Q35 for a few weeks, but with all the c40lfs at SC, I don't think SC needs it anymore. I'd be surprised that bus stays there when FR reopens*. IIRC, I think it did have the SC logos.

 

 

*which means there are NO CNG buses there.

I suspect that the O5 CNGs are in service for the same reason the MTA has not retired 1305 and 1306 yet---extra buses needed for the A shuttle post-Superstorm Sandy. When the train is restored, I expect that those buses will be retired.

That can't be, that's a CNG bus, which FR don't have the technology for.

Far Rock has been closed since Sandy hit the city. I see the Q35 on a regular basis. Where have you been? I never said the bus was actually at FR.

TTMG for Far Rockaway:

 

NOTE: Due to the damages caused by Hurricane Sandy, all of Far Rockaway's buses are being housed at JFK Depot until further notice. Some buses may appear with JFK stickers on them, but these buses here are assigned to Far Rockaway.

[Cait Sith]

Far Rockaway last I remember is still closed, but there are specific buses that are assigned to the depot for the route operations.

The CNGs can't stay at FR, since when to they have CNG? I guess it would make sense to assign the O5s to FR for now though, since SC doesn't seem to be using them at all on their own routes.

you might have forgotten FR's buses are at JFK for the time being, and there happens to be a CNG facility near JFK Airport...

I don't see the MTA using a fuel facility that they don't own, but what do I know?

9851 to SC from CP

[B36 Via Ave U]

  Question, and please dont get angry for asking this, but at SC, buses 9832, 9839/40/44/51, are they for service on the 100/103 as well as the FR routes?

There is nothing to get angry over, it is a valid question bro!

 

These are primarily for use on the FR routes, however it is not totally out the question if one should sneak its way onto a B100 or B103 run as the yard dispatcher sees fit.

So, that leaves about 40 Orion V CNGs left in service (not counting NICE's).

They're not AT FR.....they are ASSIGNED to FR...
