The Q8 thing i can answer. I believe Spring Creek now has the route. That's why New Flyer C40LF and Orion V CNG buses are at this line.

Nice pics. I think SC should have gotten the Q8 already. It would be nice to see C40LFs take over that route.

Last night I noticed more buses from JFK operating on the Q22/Q52 than usual. I only saw one C40LF. Is it possible that JFK and FR are swapping JFK & SC buses?

Yeah, it seems like FR is going to be back to 'normal' with hybrids and JFK taking on the cng buses. Saw a few more 3500s (with the jfk stickers) on the Q35.

Nice photos, but I'm confused - have routes or some runs been re-assigned?

if they transfer the 8 to sc permenantly they need to get more cng busses. mabe the 15 busses on order will go to sc instead.

nope. FR has been closed since Sandy hit and the Q52/53 etc need the extra buses for riders that lost the A. SC has been loaning the FR lines the depot and buses and this week it seems JFK will be providing the hybrids for the FR lines and take some of those CNG buses.

FR was never at SC. Buses parked in JFK airport at building 78 with a dispatcher and the shop working in JFK depot. CNG buses now assigned/loaned to JFK.
