It looks like bus #5049 had gotten into a big accident earlier this week while on the 45 line according to subchat. Apparently, the bus lost power and rolled back down a hill into three other vehicles. The bus does not have much damage (apart from a broken bumper), but these CNG-electrics were all pulled as a result. Any thoughts on this? I was hoping that ART would buy more of these....
They won't be now....
But NYCT's units didn't have an engine. Does ART's contain one?
It seems that the Designlines are on property, but are out of service.
I drove pass their garage, all the DL were chilling by fence with big red letter on the rear of each saying "KEEP BACK 15 FT"
You think they fixed the problem? I think I saw those signs when I was on the 9A the other day.
Well, seems like Designline has a buyer as per Subchat.
Staff told me the accident was caused by human error. The DLs are supposedly back in service
I know, I was just referring to the bus company being sold.
