Some are most likely to end up seeing retirement if I was in charge of CTA I would checked the ones that have messed up transmission gears that I want to retire and keep the ones that sounded like they are brand new. I forgot to mention that #6854 had a messed up transmission in 2019 when Jaylin rode it on the 85, they probably fixed it by now. Same thing goes for the D40LFs when their retirement begins I would retire or take #1016, #1307 and #1600 OOS because they also have messed up transmission gears along with the rest of the older ones that is in the worst shape. I’m kinda late but yeah. When I rode 6854 back in 2019 it was messed up. It was fixed however but the unit sounds like buses like 6837 & 6869 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGTWRailfan1995 Posted September 30, 2021 Report Share Posted September 30, 2021 Oof I’ve been seeing quite a few new Flyers breaking down these days but I guess with them aging with the 6400 novas it really doesn’t do them any good.

geneking7320 Posted September 30, 2021 Report Share Posted September 30, 2021 My friend just told me she was on a southbound artic J14 at 87th and Jeffery that stalled out and she had to board another bus. [I didn't ask for the vehicle number because she probably wouldn't remember it]. My questions is how are the 4k's doing breakdown wise? BTW this happened to her around 3:00pm today.

I remember riding #6776 two years ago on the 90 and it sounded good. I remember @Mr.NewFlyer1051riding #1016 a couple of times and it sounded like #1930 and up and the PACE Nabis combine????

YoungBusLover Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 Not a breakdown but more so an incident. #7909 was involved in a apprent shooting this past saturday evening. No one one injured from what I was told but the offenders got away in the weirdest way possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
