So far 77th has 26 #4000s in service this morning and I can only imagine how many more will get shipped off. As far as the #6400s are concerned I wonder if NP has anymore #6800s or if that was just a one day loan of some sorts.

50/50 chance NP is using #6400’s if they are it’s a shocker

From what I remember the 171 and 172 aren't interlined with the 15 or 28 they're pretty much separated from everything kind of like the 31 or 43. You could easily have one or two trips on the 4 go to 44th and Drexel and start up on the 43 and have a few trips on the 3 go to 35th but it's just inefficient for the vast majority of customers trying to head downtown or to the Southside. I'd honestly think 74th could interline the 55 or 59 with the 171-172.  Whenever the trips on the 171-172 would end they would deadhead back to the garage rather than doing a trip on the 28 which would be the quickest in all honesty.

Interlined with the 59 would just be funny, it's already a jack of all trades route. Certainly hadn't thought about a 74th interline (could also work with the 47 or 67), but seeing as both routes only use a max of 4 buses total, I agree that they could just run afull 28 back to the garage.

Interlining with the 59 would be a no go anyway since that one is already interlined with the 55A, 55N, 62H, and depending on the day the 63W and 165.

I've noticed the artic moves didn't change route deployments too much in that the 146 and 147 each still used a few 40 foot buses in line with what's been seen the last few months of the COVID restrictions on passenger loads. About the only change I noticed with NP is that the 22 and 151 operated with a high number of artics compared to 40 footers. 103rd must not have gotten artics back since the 6 and 26 still operated with a good number of 40 foot buses,

You probably right with that along with the 1364-70 at 77th too but Im not sure yet since they lost the artics now

Just checked 72 tracker. Schedule still indicates North-Clark while tracker indicates North Ave beach.

Schedules for the 35, 63, 72 and 78 are now posted with effective date June 20, 2021 calling for beach service on those routes. You won't see it on the tracker for the 35 and 78 this evening though since those routes only have beach service on weekends only. But the tracker does show the 63 and 72 providing beach services.

Any other updated schedules? None were posted in the advance section so I’m combing through for any post covid changes myself but doordash grubhub and Uber been keeping me busy. No more working all 3 at once ??

These routes have updated schedules

Yeah I just saw that they updated it finally thanks though. Let me know what you find if anything right now it looks like 77th either won’t keep artics at all or only use them on cottage vs 79th if they do keep them. I feel like 4 never really had issues like that with them especially since operators on the 4 get permission to ignore the schedule to make it to their layover at some point comepared to other routes that were using artics that didn’t have that sort of padding in the schedule. Only other route out of 77th that has that kind of permission might be king drive or halsted I have to go back and check
