More Bus Moves

Recommended Posts

Another unusual site was during the pm rush hour yesterday...an artic (#4161) made its way onto the 11 Lincoln/Sedgwick route. I've never seen an artic on this route.

I can.... I remember when I took a NABI to work on #11. Sure suprised me seeing a 60-ft. bus on a normally 40-ft. bus route(except on Sundays, when it was mostly a Optima route).

Here's a strange sighting, #6664 is on the #26 South Shore Express

I remembered couple years ago when 103rd borrowed Archer Novas while few 5300s/4400s were still around, Novas were on #26 the whole time, I remember I was on one in the AM Rush those times.

Actually, 1089 and 1090 have been FG buses since the February pick. 1088 was recently transferred from FG to 74th.
That didn't last long. I saw 1088, with its bus wrap (for Versus?) on FG route #77 Belmont Sunday night.

Give up the charade. Transfer 1085-1087 to either Chicago or Forest Glen. (Are 1130 and 1135 Titan Media buses? They should be transferred out also.)

Doh! I just realized something. Chicago garage now has a number of Nova Classics, of the span 6541-6580{?}, on its roster. Can our original poster detail which Novas are where?

I thought NF #4104 was a 103rd Garage bus. I just saw it this morning on #134 Stocton/La Salle Express.

It is possible that either:

a. That bus could've been reassigned to NP

b. Some 103rd buses on a route like 26 South Shore Express could interline with the 134 or other north side side express routes

c. The bus could be a loaner

My guess would be that it was an interline.
