BusHunter Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Now that I'm looking at it #1705 is on the #49 and #1718 is on the #9. #1698 is on the #9. Damn this looks like a transfer folks. #1689 on the #49? #1682 on the #94. Damn #1724 is on the #55 and I was just on it on the #82 last night!! Uh oh!! #1126 is on the #60, this is a #1100's for #1600's swap. Funny some #1700's are still at Kedzie like #1703 and #1717 are on the #60. This must be related to Kedzie having so many unrehabbed #1000's and 74th having only around 34. If you notice #1703 and #1717 stayed at Kedzie and those are rehabbed buses. It looks like that's what happening anyway. #1137 on the #21, #1129's on the #52, #1707's still at Kedzie and it's not rehabbed??? Damn maybe I need to check it out it seems to be the only unrehabbed #1700 at Kedzie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BusHunter Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Is Kedzie attempting to get their original 1100s back??? It would make a lot of sense. I don't know but they really got screwed on this swap. They should have got the 74th #1730-60's. I bet kedzie wishes they would've rehabbed more higher buses. Now they are starting to look like 74th. They must be down to 50 of the post #1630's. Actual count tonight is 70 post #1630's for Kedzie, 58 post #1630's for 74th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusHunter Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Isn't Kedzie going to be short buses. The lower #1100's are still at 74th at least up to #1118. Maybe Kedzie got some #1500's. So far I got 22 to 74th and 16 to Kedzie. I changed the roster at 10:30 tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.cta85 Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 I saw 1400 as a 9 Ashland bus pulling into the terminal at 95th and. And 1610 I believe as a 47. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garmon757 Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 First time seeing any 1700s operating a 77th route in nearly 7 years because #1738 is on #3 this morning. Well this is interesting; #1190 is on #12 and #1229 is on #82 this morning. Mr.Cta85, y'all got #1109 on #115 and #1233 on #15 this morning. Can somebody tell me why the hell #6480 on #136 this morning!!! #4078, #4111, #4126 and #2022 (are you kidding me???) are on #12 (is Chicago still helping Kedzie on behalf of school runs?). #6637 is on #70. #4074 is on #66. #1684 is on #47. #1698, #1710, and #1718 are on #9. #1682 and #1706 are on #49. #1700, #1707 (both on #60), #1712 (on #18), #1714 (on #12), #1704 and #1716 (both on #21), and #1717 (on #82) are still at Kedzie. 74th got #1689 (on #63), #1695 (on #55), #1709 (on #59), #1711 (on #75), and #1719 (on #59) over the weekend. #1131 is on #21. #1126 and #1138 are on #52. #1713 is on #55. #1683 is on #62. #1708 is on #67. #1112 is on #151 (It's a North Park run!!!). #1136 and #1140 are on #12. #1130 is on #35. #1132 and #1134 are on #82. Any remaining 1900s at 74th are forfeited and returned back to 77th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewFlyerMCI Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Can somebody tell me why the hell #6480 on #136 this morning!!! Maybe North Park needed to borrow a bus from FG or Chicago?

They both officially North Park's. Nothing new. Having a Nova on an express route at this time being is a slap in the face.

Chicago is still helping out Kedzie.. I am not sure if it is for the same reasons as when it first was debuted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting you mention #1713 on #55 and that's new from south shops. Maybe it's not rehabbed. Should be interesting to see where #1692 shows up. I got it as mechanically rehabbed but I think all that they did was change the kneeling stickers and maybe changed the rear plate on that one. Funny I haven't located it on Busfinder in two days. It could possibly have went to south shops/Cummins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also have to look out for #1720-23, especially #1721 (that bus is a wild card for sure). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also have to look out for #1720-23, especially #1721 (that bus is a wild card for sure). #1705 I did see on the #9 and #1720 was on last nights #47. #1722 is still at Kedzie but I haven't seen #1723. That might be another at the shops. I haven't seen the 10 FG transplants at all at 74th until this weekend. #6468 was on #47 all weekend and #6474 was out there too. I guess one garages treasure, if you can call it that, is another garages trash. I'm not expecting too much service from those as 74th is probably looking to retire them.

What the heck is going on with all these buses popping up at these different locations is what I wanna know Probably short buses. I did state the Kedzie swap was 16 for 24. Another reason for that swap could be that so many Kedzie buses were out at the shops that there was starting to be a shortage of buses there. Better to balance the shop buses around than to have them all in one place, but Kedzie should have probably still got the #1150's as #1146-50 probably doesn't fix the original problem because they are unrehabbed.

NewFlyerMCI Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 What set of #1000's does Chicago have? Cause #1030 is on the 72 and searching the rest of the numbers close to it, the set of 1000s from 1000-1050 seem to run out of 103rd. Disrepancies are below #1030 on 72 (Chicago) #1041 on 132 (Kedzie?) #1042 on 54B (Chicago) #1043 on 20 (Kedzie) #1044 on 57 (Chicago) #1045 on 73 (Chicago #1046 on 20 #1049 on 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungBusLover Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Most of the bus numbers mentioned have not been at 103rd and if I'm correct those bus numbers might have been 77th's buses from early to mid 2014. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
