I thought 5767 was a Southern bus, so why does it have 'Vale transfers? I don't know, either. :blink: |

5767 is a Frankford bus. I sure could use a ride on the 88 with 5767, full length right about now. This afternoon, I spotted an out of service artic across the street from Washington High School. It couldn't have been a 67 run, so I wonder as to what it was doing there. On Wed., I spotted 5103 sitting along the southwest corner @ Red Lion Road & Northeast Avenue, for nearly 2 and a half hours, with everything shut off. On Thursday, I spotted 5402 on the G. Today, I spotted a NABI running southbound in revenue service along the 66, 2051 block. Isn't 2051 block a nightliner or something? And this was like 11:30 am @ Frankford & Solly Avenues, shy of the Welsh Road cutback. |

Sometning's really weird is going on in the BSL. Yesterday, I had to wait 23 minutes for an express train @ Girard (three BRS trains already went by) and Girard got packed to fall-into-the-tracks capacities! This was at 8AM. And today, a BRS train left olney to go non-stop to 8th Market; a second BRS left straight for Girard, and a third BRS came, then the express. I have no idea what's going on with the express...unless there's a wreck or something at FRTC (?) |

When I went by there, there were no trains using the loop around to to go around the yard. Instead they used the short diversion to get into the station. LM2 was moved though and SPAX 1101 is still there in the shops. |

I dunno if I should call this "Awkward/Unusual", but I saw MCI 7179 in Philly on route 313. That was my first time seeing a NJT MCI with LED Twinvisions in Philadelphia. the pic came out bad since I was inside another bus. Posted Image |

The NYCTA rejected MCI D4500CTs are numbered 7101-7119. This is a MCI D4500CL which was purchased first-hand by NJT in 2007 as part of the 7121-7187 order; 7167-7187 are restroom equipped and are primarily used on the 319 and 553 out of Egg Harbor. I have been seeing these buses a little more frequently on the 313/315, but they're unusual in that these are the only post-2004 MCIs that operate in South Jersey. The balance of these buses are assigned to Wayne and Meadowlands garages in North Jersey. Also, the signs on these MCIs are Luminator Horizons. This actually is a pretty good picture, the fact that it was taken from inside a bus notwithstanding. Edited by ctrabs74, Oct 23 2009, 01:22 AM.

Yesterday 5226 was on lehigh avenue with passengers on board. The sign said 22 though. And 7175 sound like it had a DD50 / Zfer combo in it. |
