This is a oddity for Ulmer Park. They had #2598 and #2690 in service. But I don't remember these numbers ever making it to the Brooklyn division. Were these RTS models a rariety?

It's definitely later in their lives when the TA would send any bus to any depot.

In that '82 order PA2581-PA2704 were the OA buses (TA rec'd PA1661-PA1858). With the OA group they were originally assigned to OTS, and HUD. When the TA pulled the Grumman 870s for the final time... most of the OA group were sent to COL depot while many also stayed it HUD.

In the TA's group FLU had the lower PA1700s for local service, and some express service PA1700s were at all 3 Queens depots.
