CTA Paratransit retirements

[andrethebusman]

100-119 Superior TL700, 150-169 Carpenter CBW300 retirements

These little guys had a very long lifespan, under the circumstances. Even though CTA gave up on operating the paratransit program by themselves very quickly, the buses survived almost a decade, and a very high percentage made it into the work fleet.

100-119 west stored until scrapping, but 150-169 were first leased out to the new operators of the paratransit service and renumbered 7150-7169, then later leased out to PACE until retirement.
