With the exception of about 15-18 Wheelchair classics, all of the classics are gone. Most of the GMC's are gone as well. There are now several TMC's in storage as the reserve fleet. Also, there are several Staten Island RTS's and Orion 5's in storage there as well.

Did you get the numbers of which classics were remaining and what buses are in the reserve fleet?

The TMC RTS's that are CNG will be there for a while because of there age from what I understand. Any other RTS's will go as auctions happen.

Seated in nearby Dunkin Donuts at Boston Road and Conner St., I was amazed at the frequency of Bx30 service. It included a newer artic painted for Select Bus Service but signed for Bx30.

Well, I'm sure between now and 2016, a lot more 1996-1999 Novabus RTS's and 1995-1999 Orion V diesels and 1999-2002 MCI D4500s will be joining them with the upcoming bus orders and all.
