And LGA gets nothing yet again. Sigh.

 

Good, LG don't need to be beating up anything else right now. Its a shame how those RTSs and Orion Vs look. I don't want to hear any excuses neither, most of those buses came to LG is almost like new condition. The Orion 7 Gen II+s, god bless them are getting repainted, but those Orion 7 Next Generations are looking like they've been there for over 10 years! Luckily most of the MCIs are just Rush Hour buses or they'd look like shit too. #truth

From pictures I see and buses I take, lga buses don't look any worse than other buses around the system. I really am not seeing what you guys are seeing...

 

I D K what buses YOU riding from LG, but get on any garden variety LG RTS or Orion V (I ride them daily), do a good look around you inside and out, then go ride, say a Fresh Pond RTS....

Speaking of LGA's buses I always seem to get a mixed bowl...I'm a daily rider of two of their routes. I've ridden some that look and run good, some that run like shit, some that look like shit, and then those that look AND run like shit! Gotta love fleet inconsistency...

I think that Orion VII #6853 is retired because I saw it parked at Casey Stengel and its not in good shape since the back of the bus is destroyed. BTW since when did Casey Stengel change the color of their depot logo because I saw Novabus LFSA #5821 with a different color bus depot logo.

What does it mean when a bus shows "HOLD" on the front of it. I saw Novabus LFSA #5782 with HOLD marked on the front window with a marker at Kingsbridge depot.

It means the bus is to stay in the depot, not used for service.

 

Could be a mechanical reason, could have been involved in a customer injury, all kinds of stuff.

No need to stoop to any unneccessary/negative action like..... other kids on the forums. It'll only entertain them. Just let it go and do you, man. ^_^

 

Here's hoping I'm not talking out of my ass.

 

New moves anybody? No rush, of course.

It's still on the roster, so I assume that it's going to be repaired. The back cover of the VIIs can be removed (unlike the Vs).
