Ultimategamer12c Posted May 14, 2020 Share #2527 Posted May 14, 2020 (edited) #6643 isn't scrapped it's signed up as the Q47 in LGA Depot also #6535 is still tracking at LGA Depot too and #6539 is turn off completely. I could say the same with #6534 that unit may be scrapped or completely turned off but the ones I've mentioned are active in the Depot.

Ultimategamer12c Posted June 24, 2020 Share #2540 Posted June 24, 2020 Just seen that unit a few weeks ago on the B103 did some runs after that broke down. Had a feeling that unit would go. Welp another one bites the dust. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say why they just don't take an spare B400 from a retired bus at ECH, but the last retired MTA bus fleet to use those transmissions in the masses was the Orion V and those buses are long gone. Reminds me of one time I caught an ex PBL TMC RTS on the Q69, I was happy as hell to catch that bus, driver let us on at the first stop before turning the engine on. Driver turned on the engine and the bus had an crappy EGR S50, I was pissed lol. They clearly took an engine out of an retired NYCT retired repowered RTS and put it in a PBL unit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Bus been had a S50 EGR, If it was an ex triboro 7100 then that was the one you got. That bus had that engine since it was at triboro. It was a former Methanol powered TMC RTS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vast majority of the PBL RTS's that made it to the NG order was mainly ex Jamaica and ex Queens Surface units. Also I rode an 96 Nova with an S50 EGR before, in like 09 or 10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I was told this bus is at Spring Creek OOS for a bad transmission, nothing about the bus being processed for scrap.
