That's what I'm thinking cuz 52-53 still had 3 stickers in em at K last time I seen now they back there but what was really the point of the swap in the first place

Probably extras while some ok K’s were OOS

The swap was because with the summer season, 103rd didn't need as many buses with the high schools its routes served closed for summer break. Meanwhile K needed extra buses to help cover the 10 and 130 as well as summertime extended hours on the 124. Similar reasons behind a few 103rd buses being sent up to C for the summer. The buses were needed for the beefed up service on the 72, which gets extended to the beach during the summer.

Guys. There is something I've seen in the tracker oftenly. There are some buses that show SR,SH,or SS. This is an example - 6: Jackson Park Express SR -155 and a few screenshots.

I think 8032, 8086,1704 and 1790 are all just what South Shops has on hand. 

SR is Storage Randolph where they store busses under lower Randolph

SH is Storage Halstead where the #8 stores off of Divison and Halstead 

SN is Storage Navy Pier where the 65 and 66 store their busses during the day.

The storages are to help mitigate the busses going back to their home garages during off peak times

I just checked maths22 tracker, and 8032 and 8086 is back to 74th. Previously to 77th.  
Edit : 8271 is back to FG. Previously to NP.

8271 was NEVER at North Park. Route 152 is shared both by Forest Glen and North Park, and Math's thought that bus was at North Park, so that was a glitch.
