According to the contract, the Nova LFS Articulated buses will be in place FAR before the M15+ debuts. Gun Hill will get their batch first (33 units), replacing all of the current buses in +select service. The remaining allotment will go to 126th Street (57 units). This is preliminary and is subject to change.As for whether the 1996-97 Artics will see a direct retirement from this, is an unknown. But with Baisley Park and JFK on the line up as the MTA Bus Company garages set to get articulated buses. It's a good possibility that Artics will be moved to MTAB at the time the Nova LFSs start pounding the pavement here in NY. -Trevor www.ttmg.org |
