RJL6000 Posted July 29, 2023 Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 Sounds like K is beginning a major transition from an almost all-NF fleet to a primarily Nova fleet. By Labor Day it may lose its 1640s and 1650s to FG. And some of the buses that K lost had been with that garage since the day they were delivered. Expect 8287 to join 8260-8299 and 8322-8324 (in addition to its already existing fleet of 7903-7906, 7908 and 8100-8108) at K before this weekend ends. (The exceptions being 8276, 8280 and 8288, which will remain at 103rd for the time being.) Before Labor Day, K may pick up 8343-8349 and some of the 8250s from FG as well.

FG seems to be getting the short end of the stick again losing a good chunk of there #7900s to Kedzie. That surplus at 103rd may have been resolved with them unloading those elderly #1000s and #8300s to Kedzie but Kedzie threw an audible unloading those #1000s off to NP. I also notice that no Artics were moved as of yet and that may be due to the fact that almost half of the fleet is sitting OOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henceforth, when the weekend swaps are completed, K should be up to 78 Novas assigned to it - 7903-7906, 7908, 8100-8108 and 8260-8324. And once the 8550-8649 group finally enters revenue service, expect K to get assigned some of those, plus much of the yet-to-be-delivered 8650-8749 group, to retire/replace most of its remaining 1600s and 1700s.
