H4 5600 Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Academy bus has taken over operations of the tri-rail shuttle between the lauderdale airport tri-rail station and the airport terminals. They have sent some 2017 nova LFS 4th gens from the 2141-2150 series down from new york for it, as they are no longer being used on the NYU shuttles. Here is a picture of one of the units from the tri rail website. (yes this isnt directly related to BCT, but since these buses operate in broward county and connect with BCT, i decided to post it here) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexb320 Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 On 4/23/2021 at 6:30 PM, alexb320 said: BCT currently has 95 buses up for auction this weekend. 77 40ft buses and 19 cutaways. This officially finishes off the 2002/2003 Gilligs and all but a handful of the 2005-2008 Nabis. https://www.proxibid.com/National-Auction-Company/Broward-County-Fleet-Services-Bus-Auction/event-catalog/199132 I did find out through the South Florida Transit facebook page, all 77 of the buses sold in the April auction were purchased by EG Used Truck Parts in Opa-Locka. This is a well known bus scrapper in South Florida. They scrap a lot of Miami-Dade Transit and local school buses. Sad to see since I know some of those older Gilligs were still in running condition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FYBklyn1959 Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 For what it's worth, there is at least one of the Hybrid 0800s still running, saw it last week (was too far away to get the actual fleet #) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H4 5600 Posted July 3, 2021 Report Share Posted July 3, 2021 0720 is on the 10, and 0809 is on the 81. Very nice to see the older nabis being used on a weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chao-Hwa Chen Posted August 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 On 3/13/2021 at 9:49 PM, JAX Transit 2000 said: The 2020 New Flyer XD60s are now in revenue service this week. All of the units has Voith D864.6 Transmissions except for 2018 and 2020 Gillig BRT Diesel buses according to Marcos A.R and Transit PLUS+ on YouTube. @Chao-Hwa Chen had falsely edited the wrong information for 2018 And 2020 Gilligs that has Allison B400R Transmissions on CPTDB Wiki and he forgets to edit that 2018 Gillig were the last buses to be delivered in the 2006-18 Brezze Livery and 2020-present livery on newer Gilligs. Already corrected them. Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H4 5600 Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 A few more pictures of the BCT proterras have been posted by BCT on twitter. Also, the 2005 nabis have been confirmed retired. These were the last active BCT buses from the bee line livery era. The oldest active buses are now the 5 remaining 2007 nabis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danyall2019 Posted January 8, 2022 Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 I was walking in Ft Lauderdale Beach early this morning and saw bus 1419 in the 2020+ color scheme. I thought it was interesting! I saw an order pending for 60 more Gillig Low Floor busses. Being too tired to do the math, will it replace the pre 2013 40 foot busses? The are 15 new NFI diesel Excelsior atics coming, likely to replace the ugly 2009 NFI LFA-60 busses. Bus 0906 is off the active roster. Believe it or not, it seems like three 2011 NABI 40-LFW busses are retired, according to the roster. Bus 1101, 1102, and 1103! Also, busses from the 0813-0842 group are finished! Any more updates or corrections? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any more updates or corrections? Yeah but the fleet numbers for Gilligs and New Flyers are not confirmed as yet. Hope the 2008 NABIs and 2009 New Flyers will end up in Central Florida or sent at Copart or IAAI (Insurance Auto Auctions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H4 5600 Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 Does anyone know the status of the last 5 remaining 2007 and 2008 nabis (numbers 0707, 0720, 0724, 0744, 0812), as they are still listed on the wiki as active but i havent tracked any in service in a long time. 0924, the last remaining 09xx nabi, is in service today on route 50.

Is this funded by FDOT and did FDOT invested their scrap money for bus charging stations yet for Broward and Miami-Dade and did the New Golden Glades Multi-Modal Bus Terminal have any restrooms and parking spaces available for bus drivers and did FDOT invested the property out of their own pocket to build a Truck Stop Terminal with the Restaurants, Gas Stations, Car Wash, Tire Shop, Mechanic and Body Work Shop and Restrooms for the Truck Drivers, Locals and Tourists when they traveling to Florida Keys while they cruising on their Cross Country trips for Business delivery and other stuff?

One of the delivery drivers at the Gillig posted some of the latest ones on Instagram as well. Bus 2213 and up are more buses at the Gillig factory in California right now ongoing on delivery schedule as of this month. Are the XD60s will be built in Minnesota with the tip in windows and the rear windows as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
