cta6085 Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 I Am Wondering,Are There Any 5700's Cummins At 103rd Garage Yet Or Are They Still At Archer? Quote
busfan4022 Posted June 5, 2006 Report Posted June 5, 2006 Most likely still at Archer, most are being shipped at 77th. Then the old ones will be scrapped. Quote

Kevin Posted June 7, 2006 Report Posted June 7, 2006 Are Visitors Allowed To Visit The 77th Garage Generally, don't expect to be allowed into non-public areas unless perhaps you know a manager or supervisor. Quote
trainman8119 Posted June 7, 2006 Report Posted June 7, 2006 5749 is still at Archer....it was seen on the 129 this morning. Quote
Operator Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 Are Visitors Allowed To Visit The 77th Garage Not saying you should divulge if you do or don't, but don't you work for the company???...Mr. CTA6085? Quote
Busjack Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 Not saying you should divulge if you do or don't, but don't you work for the company???...Mr. CTA6085?Actually, very few of the people in this forum work for CTA. If you click on their profiles, most are students. We had one student member who posed as being a driver out of Chicago Garage, but he couldn't tell a convincing or consistent story, and was finally banned after repeatedly threatening to quit because of anger management issues. I suppose your answer will be that if you are not an employee, no. See also the discussion in connection with pictures of a Pace wreck. Quote

I'm a student, and i actually think only a couple actually work for CTA, but we just usally(or Busjack). Look up information and rant about it. P.S. :P Quote

It was just good-natured ribbing. Quote
cta6085 Posted December 22, 2006 Author Report Posted December 22, 2006 I've Asked This Question Before, Where is 5753 Quote
busfan4022 Posted December 22, 2006 Report Posted December 22, 2006 I've Asked This Question Before, Where is 5753 *sigh* It's most likely still at 77th. Once the complete order for 77th is done, it will either go to 103rd, or scrapped. Quote
rmadisonwi Posted December 22, 2006 Report Posted December 22, 2006 I hate to break your heart, but 5753 was taken off the active roster in October, and officially retired in November. Quote
cta6085 Posted December 22, 2006 Author Report Posted December 22, 2006 I hate to break your heart, but 5753 was taken off the active roster in October, and officially retired in November. 5743 Was On the 28 Stony Island Today Quote
cta6085 Posted December 22, 2006 Author Report Posted December 22, 2006 And? I think Some Cummins That Are Still Active Might Be At 103rd Quote
Busjack Posted December 22, 2006 Report Posted December 22, 2006 I hate to break your heart, but 5753 was taken off the active roster in October, and officially retired in November. BTW, are the 4914 series Orions officially off the roster, since 103rd got its Optimas? Quote
rmadisonwi Posted December 22, 2006 Report Posted December 22, 2006 No. The Orions are still in service, and will *probably* (though I don't know for sure) last until the end of the school year for U of C. The Optimas are too small for the 171, since it serves a dorm where a lot of students need to get to class at the same time. However, that dorm is apparently going to close down at the end of the school year, at which point the route will no longer need a 40-foot bus (and may not exist at all, or may be significantly changed). The 4900s still also find occasional service on other routes. Quote
busfan4022 Posted December 23, 2006 Report Posted December 23, 2006 The 4900s still also find occasional service on other routes. What?! their still in service? Quote
MetroShadow Posted December 23, 2006 Report Posted December 23, 2006 What?! their still in service? Yes. Quote
RIPTA42 Posted January 2, 2007 Report Posted January 2, 2007 What?! their still in service? The Orions, not the 96" RTSes. Quote
busfan4022 Posted January 9, 2007 Report Posted January 9, 2007 The Orions, not the 96" RTSes. Oh.... Almost made me go looking for one. >_>; Quote
