MetroShadow Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Looks like I was correct on the timing of notices and the start of the pick. At any rate, this is the appropriate space for what I noticed for the 76 which is not only is it getting a new schedule with the change of garages, It looks like there's going to be a significant change to its service hours since it had an asterisk next to it indicating such. Rush Hour short trips (Logan to the Lakefront) is one of the changes. It actually appears as if they are pull-outs from FG. As well as full service through Harlem at night. Same could be said with the 77 going all the way to Cumberland (late night service), which was already discussed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are you saying there will be earlier EB trips to the lakefront due to the FG pullouts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetroShadow Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 So are you saying there will be earlier EB trips to the lakefront due to the FG pullouts? Depends on what you define as "earlier." The pullins/outs (outside of the first few runs at 0430-0545) will begin and end at Logan Square; as those 'short-turn' runs will be in the middle of the rush periods (instead of 15 minute headways, they become 7-8 east of the Blue Line) Another thing I caught on the books: 20 minute headways after 1900 weekdays.

OK. So there are significant changes in headways depending on time of day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that makes alot of sense, I should have thought of that. I think the final two buses pull in at Pulaski WB now they can't do that with a new schedule and that's going to clash with the current schedule. Like I was saying CTA is doing more WB pullins than they used to. So they don't think that Logan Square to too east to do a pull out going east? I guess they don't want to pay the extra money to go to Central. So I wonder if EB pullouts will be from Logan? From what your saying all pull ins are from Harlem.

andrethebusman Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 So are you saying there will be earlier EB trips to the lakefront due to the FG pullouts?Basic change is that 76 pullouts/pullins are all to either Diversey/Harlem or Logan Square L. This does affect first/last times rather significantly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it means is there's a driver's run that does a 37 in the morning and 121 in the afternoon. Run numbers, in and of themselves, don't really say much of anything about what interlines with what.

ajm522 Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 That run does 37 in the morning and 125 in the afternoon with one 121 trip mixed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least none of them aggravate the deadhead problem. Maybe NP should help out on 87. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
