The wiki page needs to be updated for which buses were retired in 2018. Here are the following auction links and which buses were retired:

The wiki page also needs to be updated for some of the active buses and ones on order. 

According to page 15 of MARTA's Quarterly Report from October 2018, here is the delivery schedule of the Gilligs:

-37 35-foot Clean Diesel BRTPlus buses (1901-1937)
-22 29-foot Clean Diesel BRT buses (1938-1959); 32 in total which includes 1886-1895
-62 40-foot CNG BRTPlus buses (7001-7062)

Source: MARTAQuarterlyReportOctobe.pdf

Also, the 1800s actually started running in service for the first time on February 3, 2018 as 1808, 1810, 1818, 1821 and 1825 were out that day.

Some of the 35ft 1900s are in active service. A flickr user posted a picture of #1931 running on route 81.

May I ask for a source of the fleet numbering before I edit the Wiki? Thanks

I went through the Marta bus tracker today to see what was running and I can confirm that the 1938-1959 & 7001-7062 matched what I was able to see on the tracker. I'm not sure if these are actually 2018 or 2019 models. Hopefully someone else can confirm before these get added to the wiki page.

The only thing I found on the tracker that didn't match anything was a bus numbered 1598. Not sure what this is since the 2014 XN40s ends at 1589.

@alexb320 1938-1959 & 7001-7062 are all 2019 models. 1598 is an Alexander Dennis Enviro200 model. 7063-7079 are 2020 models.

@OR Transit Fan I have pictures of almost all the 40-foot 1800 series (1801-85) as well as most of the 7000 series (7001-62). Also, the MARTA On The Go app and Transsee site displays buses that are in service.
