In addition with 1164,1187,1527,1564

1527 and 1564 were moved due to the original shields still on those buses. The addition of more 1100s may be a mileage swap but 103rd has not earn back nothing at all.

For some reason, 1134-1137 have moved over to north park during the overnight hours. 1123-1124 and 1131-1132 remain at 103rd

All 11xx buses that suddenly went to North Park for yesterday’s evening rush have since returned back to 103rd.

This Saturday morning greets us with 1145, 1134 (🙄), 1179, 1162, and 1138 already back at 103rd.

(8137, 8138, 8142, 8143, 8148, 8158, 8161 not on tracker)

8162 is currently the lowest unit in service at Chicago.

1399 and 1542 have moved from 74th to Chicago garage.

short-lived at 77th buses 1435, 1613, 1616, 1620, and 1624 have moved to Chicago garage.

1240, 1242, 1247, 1350, 1353, and 1365 have also moved from 77th to Chicago

I was highly disappointed seeing all those flyers leaving with maintenance just to see all these 8100s show up hours later in there place around 3 am.

What you prefer?

I would of preferred those 6 remaining Allison's they had over more 7900s being moved to 77th. They sent C a good chunk of equipment based on the bus numbers I listed as far as the flyers are concerned. Those 8100s may not be that beneficial to 74th but they will be for 77th unfortunately. C made sure to keep those #8350s from getting moved.

With all the Flyers at Chicago I better hope they start adding them more often on Pulaski and Cicero

They'll hardly ever see them as the Novas have priority over anything else. Every blue moon you'll see a Flyer out there but that's about it.

Yes send them down at least. I want to ride them down south since 2013 before they’re all gone

I’m surprised 7 gave up some of their option 2 flyers instead of giving up more option 1s, considering their option 1s possibly have the highest mileage and wear and tear. I could possibly see NP around the spring pick sending  about 30 8350s to 7 for their option 1s.

Well the option 1s we do have were fairly low mileage when we got em last year so it makes sense to send the others ones out to pasture.
