Future ENY OP Posted October 11, 2019 Share #28801 Posted October 11, 2019 2 wrap campaigns- Manhattan Division for the month of October so far. Would be good if the Brooklyn Division to get one of these. Spotted these on the Lower East Side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Around the Horn Posted October 11, 2019 Share #28802 Posted October 11, 2019 2887 is currently doing a trip on the SIM33, which is a Meredith route. I'm just slightly annoyed I'm not by Brookfield Place right now since I already have photos of that bus on the SIM7 and SIM9 over there and I don't know when I might next get a chance to "complete the set" 37 minutes ago, Future ENY OP said: 2 wrap campaigns- Manhattan Division for the month of October so far.

Hopefully Ulmer Park's Prevost's get that wrap cause it looks sharp. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the standard version looks great too which all the divisions citywide have. Peep this, the November (beard) Project also has a wrap right now on MJQ routes so far. Saw the wrap while driving down Houston Street. Couldn’t get a Foto. However, if I catch it in Midtown than I will snap a foto. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Future ENY OP Posted October 12, 2019 Share #28808 Posted October 12, 2019 I noticed something with the NYC Marathon ads for 2019. They got rid of the 30x240 ads that were famous for years and now have headliners only in the Manhattan Division while others have the regular standard billboards. The needs to invest in putting more headliners outside the Manhattan Division. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Valiant Posted October 13, 2019 Share #28810 Posted October 13, 2019 Can someone confirm the B48, B57, B60 to Grand Avenue in January? I hope it’s true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hearing yes. Since the Q58 is not going artic yet. The B13 will be kept at FP. You can check again during the holidays next month as details are given the "green light" Edited October 13, 2019 by Calvin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, in recent years Brooklyn is becoming the go to destination. I guess in the world of Transit Advertising Manhattan gets the cake while the other boroughs suffer with lousy ads if you ask me. I think this past week alone I’ve seen 5 new wraps specifically for the Manhattan Division maybe with at least 2 wraps could go to Brooklyn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of the hubs (Downtown Brooklyn, Flushing, Jamaica, etc) there's just not enough foot traffic whereas almost all of Manhattan is busy enough to justify these huge ad buys. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point well taken. At least for Brooklyn Ulmer Park will get them by default b/c they are an express bus depot and since none of their routes go Downtown Brooklyn it’s good for them. However, for the rest of the Division it’s a catch 22 to which ads are good. I was a bit surprised that Postmates came to Brooklyn meanwhile übereats and Honest Tea didn’t. It’s all about being selective and the ad’s reach. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBTA Posted October 14, 2019 Share #28815 Posted October 14, 2019 LFSE+ got revealed, I wonder if the TA would pick up those buses on a test. What do you guys think the probability that the MTA would get these LFSE+s? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious question though: Are you really interested in the product, service, or event that's being advertised on these ads, or are you simply concerned with what they do for the external aesthetics of the bus? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ehh IDK how to feel about this, it has the same power train as the C40s do so there isn't much of an difference from a fan POV. Catching 3563 on the Green Lines routes was fun cause it was the lone diesel bus in a sea of hybrids. I do love the power that 3563 has so I guess I'd hope to catch it on the B103 one of these days. Kinda wish they sent SC a hybrid instead though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
