9932-9933, and 9935 are used nearly everyday on the 7D/E (9935 I believe is usually the bus that comes from the yard around 3:00 to replace 9932)
9915 has seemed to be used alot on the S63 (Not sure if it's everyday)
9939 is more likely used as a spare, though it is probably used on the 7D/E when 9932-9933 and 9935 aren't.
9913 seems to be used as a spare or from what I've heard as the bus a new hire might be assigned. (It's been used on the S1 a few times.) |

Your welcome.
It seems very rarely that anything other then an Orion V works the 7D/E since Suffolk Bus Corp recieved CBS Lines former routes. |

Thanks GBL Rebel. For some reason I couldn't remember if it was Northeastern or Northwestern. For some reason Northwestern sounded correct, though somehow figure it would be wrong. |

Does Suffolk Transit have any plans to buy new buses to replace the remaining 9900's and the 2000 Phantoms, or will they likely wait and place one larger order to replace these and the 5000's?

Rumor has it that Suffolk Transit is suppose to be buying new buses. The rumors started early this year. I haven't heard anything since. Supposedly they are suppose to come early 2016 but last I heard it sounded like there was doubt on the whole thing. It should be said that nothing was ever said about how many buses were to be brought or from whom. Though rumor was that only the Orion V's and Gillg Suburbans were to be replaced.

Look for replacements in early 2016 for the 1999-2000 buses. (the last I heard) |

What is taking so long to get 5053 back in service? It has been 16 months since the accident on April 18, 2014. |

My guess would be that whatever was damadged was alot worst then we think, or maybe it's being held for some reason, or it could have been returned to service and nobody has noticed. |
