CTA5750

Glad theyre helping that garage out. They need it bad!

I feel they will continue the numbering at 8350 assuming Novas gets the contract

Some 6400 Novas are still at FG. I assumed they were all removed. Im seeing NFs from Kedzie and NP. Novas from 74th along the fence

I wonder what Ralph Kramden would say today if he saw what NYC buses look like!!! I can just imagine it......."Homina! Homina! Homina!!! He would be speechless! LMAO! 😃

Well be using the CFD Flxible tomm. Its will be going to CPD/CFD Headquarters at 35th/Michigan around 9a

Hope theyre finally shipping these out of FG

Theres still a handful of 6400s at FG

"We can rebuild him!" "We have the technology!!!" Quote from a famous 70s tv show! lol!

Driving into work this morning, 8091 is on #56 Milwaukee.

Which locomotives are those???

Just got back from running Flx 6163 this morning. Took this shot of 6488 parked in the training yard at C. Also, anyone know about the Proterra inside C.? I couldn’t get a pic of it. It’s a plain white unit. Judging from the amount of dust collected on it. It’s been sitting there a while

Im excited to see the Pace NF .

To this day ill never comprehend how incompetent CTA management would be buying buses without a/c and then a few years later having to do a complete retrofit. Ill never forget those hot days melting on a CTA bus! I drove the RTS before and after a/c additions. No doubt there was a difference in performance. But it was nice to drive and ride comfortable for a change. I loved the Americanas! They were a joy to drive. While they didnt have a/c In the winter the heat was not doubt great! I sure do miss those days!

I drove the D901s Theywerent bad just that they didnt have a/c Otherwise the buses drove really nice. I even got to drive my favorite Flyer as a kid, #9844 once on Kimball. By then the Cummins engine which sounded so cool, was replaced by the DD 6V92

I think thats a great addition to create dedicated "Training Buses" I have a couple friends wh work at Metro in Los Angeles They have buses dedicated to training purposes only. I remember some being NF High Floor D40s, RTS and other models. Past models included GM Old and New look buses. I believe they still have on the property
