ctaboy Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 I just got off the bus on the 3 King Drive bus on 69th/King Drive waiting for a 67 67th/69th/71st route and suprisingly a NABI came it was running 30 South Chicago to 69th Red Line. I've always seen a New Flyer runnung that route,but I never seen a NABI running that route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure its a worker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busjack Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 I wouldnt be surprised at seeing a NABI running #30 S. Chicago. Its a pretty lengthy route. Im sure its a worker.On the other hand, it is a fairly light route. Also, that would involve dragging a fairly empty articulated through a fairly unpopulated zone between 118th and 130th. However, with the 4000s coming in an apparently the old buses all out at 103, I guess anything can happen and probably will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen artics on there since 103rd lost the 20 nabi's to NP awhile back. (#7569 - #7550) It just seems to be one run so far, but I expect more especially if 103rd keeps getting more #4000's. It's like the #52, on a given rush period there's quite a few artics now. Also there appears to be artics showing up on the #151 in the rush too, but they seem to be out of Kedzie.

The #7 Harrison also uses some articulated buses during rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T8H5307A Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 I know in the past 103rd had runs that started at 114th and Ave O for the dismissal of Washington High School and they used Artics on it. In fact some were working the 106 and the 30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly enough the 12 had 2 NABIs during the PM rush last Friday. I wonder how the drivers managed that sharp right turn (as mentioned by an operator on the forum who works that route basically a u-turn) out of the Central/Harrison terminal.

busfan4022 Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 I saw a NABI on the 151 at Sheridan and Irving Park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctaboy Posted December 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 The #7 Harrison also uses some articulated buses during rush. The NABIs run 126 Jackson during rush hour. right ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusHunter Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 The NABIs run 126 Jackson during rush hour. right ? There was one last night. Here's a headline. "Hybrids on the #152" yesterday #4019 was on the #152 as a Lane Tech School run. It's the first hybrid that I know of to run that route. Also #4000 hybrids have made there way to the #123 now.
