My bad yall, thought they was doing that swap that was rumored (on top of me having the wrong depot anyway). Carry on though.

Whats up with these swaps?

Mileage swap most likely, since its 1 for 1.

These types of swaps piss me off and it seems like Jamaica Depot always get everyone's leftovers from depots that treat their buses like garbage. First it was the xcelsiors now it's their newest LFS buses. The only buses that pretty much stayed at Jamaica Depot (In my lifetime) from the start to the end was their 5100's RTS with an exception of a few that went to flatbush a few years before they retired.

That's going to happen with every depot eventually, so there is no point in getting upset over it. Jamaica is realistically the only logical one between them and QV since QV is already stacked with Novas from every year. Sending them to Jamaica balances the fleet age as well.

Also , you got to look down the line Jamaica is on the verge of becoming an all electric depot. They’re BOUND to get new equipment. So hey let them do they’re swaps but Jamaica is still getting first dibs on new equipment
