But on a serious note it's a shame Lawrence was knocked down to one lane. With it being further north an X81 can do what 80 did but with a chance to transfer sooner for far north riders. Plus Lawrence seems to have a lot of corridors that people can connect to commercially and for the ride to O'Hare without having to go all the way south to switch trains

 X80 Irving Park Express was a nice express that had decent ridership that should able to return to service from Lake Shore Dr to Cumberland connecting to the Irving Park Blue Line station to continue to O'Hare Airport. Until Sheridan Red becomes a ADA accessible station, buses should serve Addison or Wilson station.

74th might be gearing up for the higher 8700’s, we got 1027 the same weekend we got 1100 and 1369, yesterday 1026 came over so 1024-25 shouldn’t be far behind if we end up getting even more flyers.

4099 K to P because check bus route tracker was #50

There’s a Kedzie DE60LF on the 50 on certain nights this late, this bus is not out of North Park garage. Tonight, Kedzie used 4099 to take people home down Damen from the United Center after the game.

Not necessarily. NP has a new 8350 in service, one which was reported in the 8350 thread. It's presumably one out of the bunch that left SS Friday night which @YoungBusLover hypothesized would be for NP or FG. If anything, at this point NP would probably be able to further knock down what remains of its option 3 and 4 NF buses without taking on that many more lower option ones displaced by 8350s from elsewhere.

If CTA is smart they would split up what's left of the option 3/4 #1000s and have them reduced to AM/PM rush service only. As wild as that idea may sound they're not getting any younger in regards to rusting that is.

I don't think Streets and San will be spreading more magnesium chloride on the streets before mid*Dec. But you do have a point.
