BusHunter Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Here are the assignments for the #7000's series MAN artics, it should be noted upon arrival of the series in 1979, they tested at different garages for a few weeks. Also I have included what livery they retired in. These are the garage assignments of the #7100 series MAN artics. and also the retirement list of the #7100's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busjack Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 The 7100 retirement list only has 63 of 125. Again, I don't have the roster, but my impression was that the only one that survived on the street (as long as the 7300s) was 7149. Maybe I am numerically dyslexic, though. Searching back through this site, I guess it was really 7143. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searching back through this site, I guess it was really 7143. #7143 and #7167 IIRC ran with the NABI's as they first came in, but didn't last long. Those two were around during the whole existence of the #7300's. The middle list the 64 left was what they had left for artics before the #7300's arrived. (newspapers had said they had 75 buses left, but I never counted that many) That basically showed why they needed the #7300's, because those buses were your entire fleet of artics pre #7300, so there was a shortage. Those buses were retired as soon as the #7300's arrived except for the two mentioned above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
