BusHunter Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 These are the assignments for the #7300's artics we got from Seattle. This is the retirement list for the #7300's as they were being phased out. #7380 had already been retired in 2003. And these are there former Seattle numbers along with what livery they had while in Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busjack Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Back in the day, I saw 7380 in the Perry Yard, indicating an underfloor engine fire. It also had a "Quizno's, Toasty" ad on it. Toasted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the bus that blew a piston that burned a woman's leg in the back of the bus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusHunter Posted May 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 I have a newspaper article of a #7300 that burned up at 47th/Dan Ryan. It shows it pretty much demolished. I can't seem to find out what bus number it was though. When I find the article i'll post it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you check his photostream he basically has the accident start to finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sw4400 Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 Looks like a brake fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sw4400 Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 I wonder how they towed that bus to the scrapyard following that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
