BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 7807 at SG in red livery! There are no other 2002 7800's that are left in the old livery since 7805 was scrapped a few years ago after a fire. 7800-7804, 7806-7817 done! Just a small handful of the 2002 7700's (7783-7799) still remain in the old livery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 One mistake in my earlier post. 7807 was on a rte 88. 7718 is the one i spotted downtown on one of the expresses on 5th ave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I suspect it won't be long before one of the 2003's get's sent in for refurbishing. I would really like to please see this thread changed to "D40LF repaint / refurbishing tracking". Especially with the typo in the current title showing "7700's referbishment."Also, I have been informed that all refurbished units will return with bike racks as we have been suspecting for awhile now. Also, I am hearing that the units already refurbished in the red paint will also be getting bike racks. So keep a watch on those now too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick B Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I definitely agree with the name change proposal. I have requested a thread name change in this thread a while back and it still hasn't been done. Also, do you know if the older style black bike racks with the ad boards that some refurbished buses have will also be replaced with the new silver ones?

BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I can't see them needing to change old style bike racks with new ones when there is nothing wrong with the old ones. It would be a waste of money. Why replace it if it ain't broken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 The following VP D40LF's were found parked all in one lane at SG earlier today. I suspect these were all moved up to SG to be prepared for being sent in for refurbishing since all of these following mentioned units are non-refurbished units - 7738, 7753, 7755, 7760, & 7766. So we will need to keep a watch for these. Also, I spotted 7815 on what I thought may have a VP run, but I could be wrong. With that, I am wondering what went to VP to replace these 5 units that came from VP or are they not needed down there right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Well, today #'s 7810 on the route 6, 7812 and 7813 on the route 3, 7814 on the route 1 and 7815 on the route 9 today in service out of VP. So I guess they sent some refurbished units to VP to replace those 5 above mentioned units that have gone to SG. I am not sure if any others were sent to VP at this point.
