I saw an unmarked new flyer today on 94th and stony. I'm almost certain it was the prototype 1000 series cause it still had the original bike rack it had back in 06 when they 1st arrived. Only thing was this bus had no numbers on it at all which was weird.

It’s currently at 89th Training Facility as I speak.

Can you get us a picture of it 

Depends.... Garmon has to be careful if it's on private property. Even if he's photographing from the streets, he can get in trouble with CTA personnel. I'm sure there's lots of people roaming down there.

That’s a negative mate @Aiden Tabucic, especially due to fact that I’m a CTA rail employee and absolutely no phones are allowed on the training floors.

The driver had to put #6564 out of service and #8267 was the transfer bus ?

I see that bus didn't go to the bone yard I seen it on the Dan Ryan back in December I believe going south bound to 77th I was like I wonder if it's going for maintenance or to the bone yard I see it was just maintenance

1038 1039 1041 1042 1045 from 103rd to FG 

i think 1034-1045 are sent to FG from 103rd 

It sure looks that way.

Relative to this, I couldn't help noticing that a block of FG Smart Buses is missing from Math22's street roster today: 8236-8247. Just an assumption, but I'm guessing that they may have migrated to 103rd as part of a dozen-for-dozen swap.

Earlier today I saw bus 8236 I believe pull in 103rd now that the 8325's are in service on FG routes my theory about us getting those are out there window but perhaps we're getting the upper 8200?? I don't know at this point but I'm just glad the 8325's are in service now ????.

They had to make room for those new Novas at Forest Glen.
