A considerable portion of the 6’s ridership is people that are probably still WFH (the Hyde Park riders mostly, since a lot of the South Shore riders are either taking the 26 when it runs or transferring to J14 @ 67th/Jeffery), compared to J14 which had a lot more essential workers (one being myself).

I was hoping 77th would get the rest of 1230s back from Kedzie but time will tell though with little over 1000 miles on it has to be fresh. Imma miss 1206 she rode good when I last had her even tho I bouncee tf out of it when I was on my way in after my run on the 35 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
