Only the J14 has been running all artics.

With 40 footers from time to time

Is this because there is a lack of artics, or because the passenger need isn’t that high and the buses sent out on routes reflect this?

 A considerable portion of the 6’s ridership is people that are probably still WFH (the Hyde Park riders mostly, since a lot of the South Shore riders are either taking the 26 when it runs or transferring to J14 @ 67th/Jeffery), compared to J14 which had a lot more essential workers (one being myself).

The odds of me getting the first bus back from Kedzie is ironic, let's see how she runs today. I was hoping 77th would get the rest of 1230s back from Kedzie but time will tell though with little over 1000 miles on it has to be fresh.

I rode #1489 today and she did kinda good but it is not one of the original shift gear flyers.

That's not really a lack of artics then, but a parts issue lol

Ye because some have been gone for a year some might have a seized engine like 4175 but I thought those could get fixed but New Flyer is scarce on parts i see

I don't know what happened to it since then because the transmission jumps out of gear so bad, I've had to play with the gas pedal all day just to get the bus moving properly without stalling.
