I’ve seen a few NP westerns on some weekends recently but those were supposedly a weekday only thing to make up for Archer closing. I wanna say something wild considering @YoungBusLoversaid some runs got made longer or shorter; what if this particular artic run repeatedly showing up was a former school tripper that got rehooked into staying on Damen the full run to save a bus or fuel vs maybe doing a school run then deadheading to do an express. With a block ID of 551 that seems early enough to handle a school dismissal. Biggest question is why are buses steadily using another garage block ID Probably so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungBusLover Posted October 9, 2021 Report Share Posted October 9, 2021 This is getting a bit odd now. I know we've been short during the weekdays this week but we have more than enough spares for the weekend. 8054 is on the 51. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently 103rd is helping out as well with 77th from what one operator told me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks both Yeah that cause the Congress trips you see are probably the end of rush hour pull ins. These 77 trips are hidden cause they happen durin the times when the schedule is more from “a to b every 3-4 min” or whatever. The 5000s on blue in the afternoon are hidden the same way on one of the trips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t tell if NP is still doing the school runs to Congress that interline with an express cause last timetable that has then marked is from 2017. When I lived over there I remember a lot of 82s ending at Cermak so im sure those are the ones that started at Congress going NB since you can go to Pulaski and hit the garage from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sht6131 Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 NP is still doing school trips mostly with artics. I think there are three. I know at least two. You can confirm this by CTA bus tracker or Maths22 TransSee real time arrivals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So those still gotta be ending at Congress and doing a 136 or 147 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
