(i hope i got the fallen driver's name right) |

MCI crusiers never have ran on the B46, the drivers were paying respect to Mr Thomas with the B46 signs. The B46 is 100% RTS. |

This is while they are deadheading to their starting points (or from their end), I assume. Once they're on their actual route, I'm sure they put the signs back to their normal route. |

While they are deadheading, instead of not in service. In Seattle they retired the route number that Mark McLauglin was killed on. The 359 was renumberd the 358. Also for his memorial service they suspended service for everyone to attend and King County Metro picked-up the the taxi fare of displaced riders if they had their recipt. |

I was emailed a code list yesterday (not sure if for NYCT or all) but the list had both MTA Bus and NYCT codes. I was looking for the X1 code (which should be 7010) but the list had that code as BM1. Try 8468 code for a test. |

We have overlapping codes. 5030 is our BxM3, while NYCT it's the Q3. When the MCI's arrive they have NYCT codes programmed and MTAB has to reprogram them for ours. |

So do they wipe out everything and just put MTA Bus codes or do they just overwrite the codes - where 5030 would be BxM3 but the rest of the NYCT codes remain? |

Yes, 1 died as a result of the crash. The gunman shot and killed himself after shooting the B/O. I believe 27 or so were on the bus. It was the day after Thanksgiving 1998. |
