Posted by FYBklyn1959 on Sun Jul 13 15:17:14 2008 Finally, I have had time to post them. Will post pics on OT and SubChats as well.Trip report can be found here June 13th, Queens Village area   (6459 in the 2nd pic ran into some trouble, that vehilce behind it is the repair truck)   Twilight beese :) We got to Wilmington on Saturday 6/14. The Amtrak station in downtown Wilmington is kinda a hub for DART buses, and sure enough, as we pulled away from the station, there was a lineup of buses (mostly NABIs? with a Gillig Phantom bringing up the rear). I could've gotten a pic, but our cousins, who I hadn't seen in 14 years had picked us up from the station, and I figured it would be bad form to whip out a camera. I decided I'd get some pics when we returned to the station the next day, forgetting that DART doesn't run on Sunday :( So all I got from Delaware were the following pics:  The J4500? (I am clueless about MCI model numbers after the MC-12) was southbound on I-95  DART bus stop sign in Newark, where my cousin lives.  The DART Paratransit yard. Unfortunately, the main yard was unviewable, though I did see it the previous day heading south.  Greydog (as I call them) 6362 was across the street from the Wilmington Amtrak station. Later, while on the Acela, I got these shots of SEPTA New Flyer D40LF 8080, which was northbound? on I-676.   And finally...  What appears to be a D40LF belonging to United Airlines. Took that from my jetBlue plane during our endless taxiing at JFK. The quality of some of the pics isn't the greatest, but just wanted to share. |

Thanks. I couldn't see the front of the bus due to an obstruction, so figures I got it wrong. |

Just one nitpick:DART just introduced limited Sunday daytime service on six routes from Wilmington. |

The SEPTA bus was was going westbound on I-76.2. When I flew to Pittsburgh back in April on Jet Blue, the plane did so much taxiing. I think it goes clockwise from Terminal 6 and works its way to runaway 13L. On the contrary, when landing on runway 31R, the taxiing process does not take so long. |

Yup, the 33 is one of them, but it goes only to Christiana Mall. And for some dumb reason, the 6 didn't get sunday service. Newark really needs the service, especially during the school year |

I think DARTs fleet is mostly Gillig Advantages and NABIs. BTW, where the hell in Newark does the 39 stop that the 33 doesn't? Does your cousin go to UD? |

I forget which street we were on, maybe if I look at a map, I could figure it out. My cousin does not attend UD, she is "older" (around my mom's age). She is like a 3rd or 4th cousin, I forget exactly which. |
