Why is Bladensburg evening getting FMR's Orion VII CNGs? Are they getting new routes from other depots or something?

No idea man, it's something I still gotta figure out myself.

2503 - 1671
2514 - 1677

I saw 6142 on the M6 today, so you can take that off the list.

2565 - 1673
2599 - 1676
2555 - 1679

2525 - 1680
3024 - 1682
2519 - 1683

Now there's two gaps (1678 and 1681) but the only known one left is 2515 (for now), I heard from a (more-than) semi-reliable source that 2507 was seen around in service (on a Bladensburg route, forgot which one). Either that, 2510, or perhaps another D(E)40LF(R) (I've got my eyes on 6126 and 6181), but I think that's unlikely

2507, 2510, 2520, 2537, 2542, 2569, 2579, 2609, 2613 , and 3009 are still being rehabbed.  2515 is the only unknown rehab in service left for now until more come back.

The reason the Orion VII's are at Bladensburg is Four Mile does'nt need all of them. The reason they had all of them was to cover for the units that were going to rehab. They are now putting them back at Bladensburg because the 4200's are now going to Southern Ave so the 6100's can get rehabbed.

2515 - 1681
2510 - 1684
2520 - 1687
2537 - 1688

So there's 2579 that's still not found, and most likely 2507 is back by now. But, there's three missing slots (1678, 1685, and 1686). I'm thinking one of those belongs to 6124 or 6126. I saw 6131 today but it was still unrehabbed.

Ah so that explains the sudden 4200s at Annex. It looks like they're also starting to move in to Montgomery on account of the fact that I rode 4295 this morning on the Q6.

2579 - 1685

I was hoping it would be 1686 since I like that number. And of course, nothing else was out to be seen (not 2507, 2609, or anything else that might have returned). I'll be on the lookout tomorrow again.


Also, I've noticed that most of the Neos by now have been repainted (today I noticed 5310 and 5312 were repainted, I think those are the latest for now). Anyways, it might be possible that one of those repainted Neos turns out to be another rehab that's either 1678 or 1686?

RideOn5905, next post will start the next page, I trust you more than myself to be the remaining-rehab tracker!

Okey-dokey! Consider it done!

Landover:
More 6000s and 6100s on the way...

3009 - 1689

Also saw 6124 and 6157, they are not (I repeat NOT) rehabbed
Passing by Bladensburg today (where I saw 6106 and 6192) I saw 2507 going in the depot after doing its morning runs, so we know now that it's out there, just not yet trackable.

[NewFlyer9736BCT]

2613 - 1691

I'm still annoyed that 2507 and 2569 (and hopefully not 2542 when it's back) are not yet trackable on the API, and that Annex's 6100s and Bburg's C40LFs suddenly can't be tracked on the main bus API thing.
That said, you must have a lot of patience or just another good method if you're able to determine which Annex 6100s might be up for rehab.

What do you know, # 2569 is #1686. Caught this bus twice earlier on the 16J. Funny story, I was on the 22A ( #2622) and I saw this bus coming up behind us, so I got of to catch the number for you guys, seeing that you all are into rehabs.

[NewFlyer9736BCT]

Much appreciated Chargerdodge9!

So that leaves 2507 and 2542 left for Orion VIIs.
As much as I don't like to assume, I want to go ahead and say 2507 is 1678. I mean, it's been out for a few weeks now, what else could it be?

[Chargerdodge9]

Question, do the rehab numbers suggest the number of buses that WMATA had ever overhauled?
