Would be nice to see these higher units out south for more than just the afternoon. Besides 1437 None of these came out of the shops Looks like 1181 is back at P this morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renardo870 Posted July 3 Report Share Posted July 3 I saw 8132 running 95 WB on 93rd St this morning. It's probably a loan but you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on Buswatch, is it fair to conclude that the BE40s are done for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say they're done for, C still has them on the active roster. However they're currently housed at 77th awaiting materials (Parts/other Miscellaneous) to be delivered. The ZX5s for whatever reason seem to be easier to work on and maintain than the BE40s. I dont know why that is though. HFE and HFM is what they're being held for. (Hold for Materials - Hold For Engineering). Every now and then they'll move them out of the bays to other parts of SS. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungBusLover Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 #600 and #610 are at the training facility at 89th/Greenwood so that solves the mystery for those two being out of action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The transfers of at least three buses from K to 77th also makes sense, given that the former will be losing one of its routes to the latter. Finally, the NP to 74th transfers are to maintain a sufficient spare bus ratio at the latter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erin Mishkin Jr. Posted Saturday at 04:34 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 04:34 PM 4063, 4064, and 4065 decided to make the move to 103rd.Sounds like Kedzie wants to dump some artics out as 103rd still wants hybrid buses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure enough, the aforementioned 74th->C transfers were only temporary, as they were there only to help out with the Air & Water Show. They are back to their home garage now. The K->77th and NP->74th transfers appear to be “permanent”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say it seems odd that K would be losing buses given that the 82 is becoming ok art of the Frequent Network starting tomorrow. But I forgot that it's supposed to lose the 39 to 77th according to the internal garage paperwork shared a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
