Dang that’s a lot of #1000’s awaiting maintenance. Hopefully SS doesn’t continue to get piled on with all these OOS buses Quote

Wow I still can't believe the body of an old Americana is still sitting down there almost 20 years after those old girls' retirement. Quote

They got fishbowls so why not. I wonder if that was the americana at 61st and calumet. Quote

Policeman Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 1201 back in service after a crash on 12/13 (3/1) Quote
YoungBusLover Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 So after finally doing some digging I found out which bus from FG caught on fire from Last month and that bus is #1012. I overheard a rumor that it caught on fire while pulling into FG but I can't confirm that for sure.I Notice the sides and interior of the engine compartment were burned significantly. Parts of the engine itself is gone as well but not the entire block. Quote

Hard to tell if it's gone come back since its a 06 model its at retirement age reached that age 4 years ago so its hard to tell if they will fix it 2 Quote
