I was riding #8799 on the 96 today and I noticed this sheet of paper listing the buses that were at the North Park Garage trouble track at 2:07 Am This morning.

Is that why #8810 has been out for a while? Edit: It returned to service this morning I’m pretty sure.

It’s probably been broken down for 2 weeks

Probably. Or maintenance because from what I’m seeing, it was last seen on the 97 on 10/8/26 with all trips completed with no issue.

Wait, I looked at the list and it did break down on the 97 because it lists a “dead motor” on 10/8/26 which was when it was last seen.

#8642 broke down on the 7 on 10/16/26. Hasn’t been seen since.

I believe #1891 broke down on the 93 on 10/23/26. It was supposed to make a return trip to Davis and right as it left Logan Sq it sat for a long while and then disappeared off the tracker.

I mentioned before to you that "disappearing off the tracker" can mean a lot of things, and is certainly not worth posting. You're starting to sound like @79th to lakefront 1302--just sitting on a tracker  and thinking every glitch is worth posting.

Guess you’re right. But I only mentioned this because it still hasn’t returned to service. But still, I will watch what I post.
