Hello and welcome to Next Stop News, a Branch of the Smartquest devoted to informing my fan base and the transit community of events which occur throughout the month(s) which they cover.

This is July 2024's MTA Bus Fleet Status Update, a continuation from where I left off in December 2023. This video addresses changes within the fleet utilized at depots at MTA Bus Company, such as retirements, transfers, loans, and new deliveries. Thanks to the sheer volume of content, I found it necessary to separate the Joint Update I was working on into four parts: Other Systems, MTA Bus, NYCT, and Subway. This is Part 2 of the currently scheduled rounds system. In this video, you will hear about the full retirements of the Orion VII Old Gens and Hawker XT Next Gens at JFK Depot, and therefore in the MTA in general, as well as the rapid dwindling of the Lithium Next Gen fleet at JFK and Baisley Park, loans at various depots, and new Conehead (135 + 173) and XD40 (116) deliveries for MTA Bus Depots, as the latter finishes up within the next few days.

Released on 7/11/24, for your viewing and listening pleasure. Hope you enjoy!
