Since a lot of the lower 8300s are now at 103rd (8300-8321), is this because of 103rd’s articulated bus shortage? Speaking of the 4000s, according to Maths 22, there are no 4000s in the block from 4160-4195 running (36 buses) right now.

O think its more related to 103rd transitioning from the older 40 ft New Flyers to Nova 40ft buses.   There are enough artics in the system to transfer some to 103rd if needed.

I'm more inclined to think that it's because second batch 8350s are now entering service and so far have been entering service out of FG. I agree that 103rd having a lot of artics out of service might be a part. But I think buses out of the 8450-8549 range starting to see service is playing a larger part of it.

So is the 8100's that C sent over to 6 are they perm moves since 6 since us a few run down 1400's or is 6 short on buses so it's a loan

I think for the time being they're permanent unless this next batch of #8450s shakes things up going into the Summer pick.

They shouldn't be short after getting loaned 20+ 8300s last month. FG should of sent back those lower #1000s instead.
