Gil 0 Report post Posted January 14 Some buses are at south holland and ready to be delivered at Pace Fox valley garage next week or 2 but for next year the 2700s series will be replaced by the new 30Ft Eldorado national axess. It will debut hopefully in February most likely, I will start Recording at the Aurora Transportation Center and I'll take some pictures and I'll make a tribute to the 2600s Series the Eldorado EZ Rider II.

I just passed a Joliet bus #2755 and it's got paint peeling and rust spots. So those 20300s are probably going to be moving in quickly on the other locations once Fox Valley is taken care of.

If diesel, who knows where they will go. If CNG, they can only start at South, but could eventually wind ip in Wheeling. My understanding was that Wheeling was scheduled to open this summer.
