For instance gore pace announces when the bus is making a left or right, Cta will have that as well. 7900 has it already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initially it was out of 77th. When CTA decided that 103rd would get Novas because they had driver shields (due to some high profits attacks on CTA drivers on 103rd routes(, those buses (7900 & 7901) were sent to 103rd for training. Eventually 8326 thru 8341 joined them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
