YoungBusLover Posted April 30 Report Posted April 30 Anytime you see a bus transferred to another garage for a short stint, the correct terminology we use as far as bus operations is BOL (Bus on loan). Quote
Ghoul Posted May 6 Report Posted May 6 Looks like P is starting to unload a couple more flyers now since their in process of getting the remaining new novas 1175-1176, 1184, 1186 and 1191 have come back home to 103rd Quote

Erin Mishkin Jr. Posted May 7 Report Posted May 7 77th has gotten a few extra buses: 1181, 1183, 1419. Quote

We also saw the report from CTA85 that 74th is supposed to get an additional 15 out of those. We've already seen two of those go into service the day after your comment. Quote

Yeah K having less buses than FG for about the last couple of years is a good indication that its fleet size isn't normal. That's a big part why it's always short on buses and regularly needing loans from C and other garages. That's even with taking into account the breakdowns and buses down for repair. Quote

But to me personally it don’t make sense giving those are lowered numbered flyers. Quote

If 15 are getting retired they need to just send them on over to 77th so we can put them out of there misery. 😂😂😂 Quote

Erin Mishkin Jr. Posted May 8 Report Posted May 8 1181 remains at 77th, along with new arrivals 1855, 1891, and 1437. Would be nice to see these higher units out south for more than just the afternoon. Besides 1437 None of these came out of the shops Quote
Mr.NewFlyer1279 Posted May 8 Report Posted May 8 looks like 1437, 1633, 1855, and 1891 are BOL’s to 77th for the PM rush Quote
