For SBS, then why even bother putting NCTAB blue decal line one these and not just SBS wrap? Like you stated, this is subject to change.

Yea, its a test fleet so they have to go a depot that already uses Nova Artics so they can compare the performance of the two buses.

LOL, like they actually have a shot of coming to Brooklyn. Manhattan and Bronx will always be dominate in artic orders.

Good, I don't want them anyway. Let Brooklyn get the MTS instead.

That was the original assignment for these buses.
30 for MJQ, 30 for KB, and 30 for 100th Street.
I cannot see the NYCTDOB using these buses on the
Bx12 SBS. These new buses will get torn up just like
the Novas are now.

hell..they handled the M shuttle pretty damn well..I rode a NOVA LFSA on night and it carried every single rider waiting at Broadway!

The 38 58 46 and a few more could use them besides the SBS routes..

So AGAIN I ask..why Not place them on "other" routes outside of Manhattan Bronx and now Queens?

Why not Brooklyn?

There was only one on the (M) shuttle on that Saturday. Fresh Pond Road and Myrtle Ave. aren't too bad on Weenends, esp. since school is out. On a weekday rush hour they could never any Fresh Pond route. Artics are just too big to pull into most of Ridgewood's/Bushwick's bus stops. I was watching that on on FP road and they almost take up half the block! They would be blocking the box constantly on such small streets. Ridgewood drivers can't stand that and they will always honk when something like that happens. Also artics cnnot fit in FP's entrance.

I've been on the B38 many times on rush hours. The OrionVIIs a more than capable of handling the Downtown Brooklyn crowds. No "east to west" north Brooklyn route needs them to be honest.

The B46, yes it has a good chance at seeing artics. I agree with that.
