garmon757 Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Well I didn't expect construction in the front of the shop. I'm not sure if it would interfere with the NF's rehabs and new Novas arriving but there are some NF's parked in the back left from the retired Novas. #4022 and #6506 are blocking any buses from going by the front of the shop.

ajm522 Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 You couldn't get any pics of it? No as I was in the back and the bus was full. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't necessarily interfere with anything. From your picture, where they dug into the asphalt looks far enough away from the bay doors to not hinder a bus's turn radius.

I wish I had been there to see the reactions of the Cubs fans who saw that while I was still in the area with friends, but as it turned out I left the area for home via the Red Line. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTRSP1900-CTA3200 Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Almost like when they put the Sox World Champions 3200 pair on the Brown Line for normal service. We all know where the Brown Line runs in terms of fans... A least a storm/tornado warning didn't shut down the game like it did 6 years back in August. Let's see how fast that photo spreads. It already gave several forum members something to talk about. Thanks for sharing Garmon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garmon757 Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Another 74th's 6400s moved to Chicago. That bus is #6423 while operating #20 right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like the White Sox are any better this season... Did they draw their bullpen from 10 random guys they saw getting off the Red Line? On a less sarcastic (and transit related) note, I actually took the Green Line back from Comiskey a couple weeks ago. Wasn't quite as crowded as it would've been had my girlfriend and I taken the Red back to town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArcherRider Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 This afternoon I saw NF # 1005 on #62. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.cta85 Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 This afternoon I saw NF # 1005 on #62. So yesterday while still at the garage (103rd) before I pulled out there were some mechanics from 74th who came there I'm guessing to borrow some of our buses cause I saw a mechanic in bus 1250 as well. I didn't see them take 1005 but I'm guessing they did if it was on the 62 archer route. They came in 1742 it was like 3 or 4 of them so maybe they came to borrow some buses.
