I like the new 3700's and 4700's over the ones I drove.

I don't have too much knowledge of the Bus types and I have been out of the NYC area since 2008.

What happens to the old models?
Are they reefed?
Sold? to other cities? The public?

For the most part the old buses get sent to Eastchester for storage/scrap.
