I'll update the rosters in the next few weeks to see if anything will return before the Christmas or so but for anyone wondering the whereabouts of the #1000s a majority listed in red are at SS pending LTH/300 for rust or other miscellaneous defects.  Note I don't have 74th, 77th or 103rd listed as they have non 3rd/4th option #1000s.  4 #1000s were withdrawn from service last week and from the looks of it they are #1427, #1797,#1897 & #1942. I'll doublecheck on #1851 and #1766 may be next in line that will be retired.

1643 is already retired?!?! I just saw that bus like two weeks ago that’s crazy how it already quit that quick. What’s up with 1609, is it beyond repair or something?

 

I just saw 1486 yesterday with a broken tracker. 1854 was NEVER active and was hiding amongst the novas in the boneyard just to clear things up, and most of the time the novas completely blocked it.

 

has anyone seen 1495 in service?

1491 also has a broken tracker I just saw it yesterday. 74th is not good with keeping up with broken trackers .

i got more info on this…….that area is storage for retired flyers that are awaiting shipment to SS, SS has absolute 0 space for buses so F has the land to hold them while space gets made.

[YoungBusLover]

I expect 103rd and C to start storing retired #1000s as well since they have the capacity for it.

Oh trust me, when the last #6400s were retired in the summer of 2022, 103rd left them all over the facility until they were hauled off to SS.

I guess I misinterpreted "storing" as "stashing their own" as opposed to stashing, say, K's junk.

Of course, why CTA is not calling Scrap Metal Services in a more timely manner is beyond me.

1790 and 1911 were already in the boneyard, so why did they suddenly move up to FG? Did they just tow them up to FG to create more space for other buses?

Is 1614 broken again, or just ghosting? It hasn't appeared on the tracker since 11/20.
