Then they send buses to other garages only to turn around and borrow buses. It does make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed #1108, #1184 with cosmetic damage and one #4000 from 103rd in our shops area this morning so maybe there is some correlation to that.

Assuming that they weren't just damaged this past weekend, it would seem like 103rd could have held on to the New Flyers they sent out. If they were aware of the damaged buses needing to go to SS, holding on to buses while receiving new buses should have been an option.

This wouldn't be the first time they've done that. I remember seeing #1189 at 77th last month in our shop area assuming it was a move but later found out it was just a simple repair job. I'll add #1161 to that list as well, I just saw it in are shop area about 20 minutes ago along with #4034. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's definitely interesting that 103rd has gotten further new buses in a continued split between it and FG. Yet it finds itself needing to borrow New Flyers when it definitely could have just held off on shedding any until able to cover down and damaged buses without needing loans.

Shannoncvpi Posted May 16, 2023 Report Share Posted May 16, 2023 So in this case of 3 sending its buses off this part I don't understand when they sent buse to FG etc does 3 use 2 buses for the swap 1 that's going fronlm 3-FG & a follow that's just there to bring the other wroker back to 3 cause like when I get sent to get a bus from SS I bring a bus fronC to SS then pick up the other bus that's ready & go start my route a few days ago I had 66 chicago displayed on the bus when I was leaving SS ?? confused people all down 79th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
