2033-2057: WESTERN
2075-2099: MONTGOMERY
2100-2173: NORTHERN
2174-2231: WESTERN

let me point out a couple of errors/notes:

4001-4051 - Annex
4052-4065 - Bladensburg

4309-4316 - Royal
4317 - UNKNOWN (unless you have seen this one)
4318-4321 - West Ox (not Royal)
4322-4329 - Montgomery
4330-4336 - West Ox (not Royal)
4337 - UNKNOWN (unless you have seen this one)
4338-4376 - Royal
4377 and up...I don't know...you might be right on this one, I know 4387 is at Annex, but I'm not sure if 4388 is still at Annex or if it moved to Landover. Also, the 4400s (which go up to 4412, not 4413) are split between Annex and Royal.

Everything else: you're pretty much right

9363 is Annex not Landover

9329 and 9399 might also be Annex

[LandoverDivision]

Someone said they saw 9363 on the F4 that's why I said that.

oh...well if you take a look at the photos thread, you will see a picture of 9363 on the M2 at Naylor Rd with a P block, taken on August 11 (i think...)

[OrionFlyer]

Today I took a last minute trip to DC and I saw and rode 4379 on the 38B (FM15) and I saw 4253 on the 38B with a West Ox Block (AS00).  Something happened on the 38B today and West Ox had to cover some runs. The 4379 I was on, although it had a FMR block, was being operated by West Ox. Driver said so. He needed the schedule and map to get to where he was going.

Also I saw 3906 on the 87. Is it common for a 30ft to be on the 87? Every 40ft trip I've seen is usually a full load.

[LandoverDivision]

30 Foots are not common on the 87.

The 4379 I was on, although it had a FMR block, was being operated by West Ox. Driver said so. He needed the schedule and map to get to where he was going.

That's how it works when a bus (and driver, at times) are substituted.  Obviously, Ox doesn't have a block with 38Bs on it.  The block and run numbers indicate the work that the bus and operator (respectively) are doing, not necessarily what garage either of them are from...so the displayed run number is not always an exact indication of a vehicle's garage assignment.
