BusHunter Posted April 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 #1798 was released from south shops this morning on the #134. Also I noticed yesterday #1719 is back in service. That might be rehabbed. Also #1714 is back out on the #35. That was at NP. I took it off their to do list and gave it to Kedzie. I checked my rehab list and it says #1714 was already rehabbed? So I took it back off Kedzie. I need to cross reference that info now and make sure if it is rehabbed or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BusHunter Posted April 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 #2015 the bus of the year is now rehabbed. Just passed me with a 992 on it over here at Chicago/Western. I wonder if it's coming from south shops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BusHunter Posted April 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 #1698 is rehabbed on the #22 but only the left side interior lights work on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusHunter Posted April 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Here's a bunch of pictures of newly rehabbed #1000's #1407: #1708: #1698: #1651: I don't know about #1407. If you look at the bus it has a faded CTA logo on the right side. That's an exterior rehab? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusHunter Posted April 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 #1798 is rehabbed on the #7 over here by Rush hospital complete with a Wendy's salad at the back of the bus. At least it's healthier than fried chicken!! Lol!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTRSP1900-CTA3200 Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 #1798 is rehabbed on the #7 over here by Rush hospital complete with a Wendy's salad at the back of the bus. At least it's healthier than fried chicken!! Lol!! At first I thought the salad was part of an advertisement on the bus, not an actual salad inside. Oh well...

BusHunter Posted April 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 #1014 was out here on the #60 10 minutes from union station eb but the tracker dropped it. Also #1342 is confirmed unrehabbed on the #60. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jajuan Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 At first I thought the salad was part of an advertisement on the bus, not an actual salad inside. Oh well... Maybe some rushed doctor, nurse or med student forgot it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garmon757 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 I've added #1502 back on the roster as mechanically rehabbed. BusHunter, #1032 has been rehabbed for a while now. You still have it on your non-rehabbed roster. #1812 is now Chicago's thanks to the "C" on the windshield despite being at the shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still have it on your non-rehabbed roster. #1812 is now Chicago's thanks to the "C" on the windshield despite being at the shop. Thanks, I see now I had the right date but the info never got to the other list. Probably all these #1600's at Chicago need to be checked to see if their rehabbed. Chicago's been going gangbusters rehabbing them lately. Plus the ex Kedzie buses at NP are all suspected of rehabs. #1719 probably is and #1710 hasn't been in service. Probably either at the shop or Cummins. The only bus I can really say that's not fully rehabbed for sure out of those are #1693 and #1697. Thought #1408 might have been rehabbed, but it's not. It's the last low #1400 at np not rehabbed along with #1395 being the only high #1300 not done. I'd be interested to see what happened with all these #1800 Kedzie buses in the #1826 - #1812 range that are not rehabbed yet. If some didn't go to Chicago, there must be a reason. (at the shops or already rehabbed) #1267 that was at south shops is back in service. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungBusLover Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 Quick question, Do #1000 - #1929 have the same transmission shift patterns because a mass majority sound similar to me for what ever reason. I ask that because before the rehabs they had 3 distinct patterns or at least some did. I know Cummins ISM and ISL are the two engines in #1000-#1929 but they're different shift patterns seemed to have morphed together as one after the rehabs took place. All before rehabs #1 Mainly lower #1000's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyQz2h74L80 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYpzsuSZX9A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=At2sKEAiYE8 #2 Mid #1000's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3DCPkIai_0 #3 High #1000's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoB-m8i3D4I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivcnn2PqD0c After Rehabs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztpT2B5hv1o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The speed the operator drives the bus also plays a part. One final gear shift progression is rarely heard because most 1000s are operated on local routes and surrounding traffic limits how fast a bus might move. Most of the time you'd need to be on a NF 1000 running on a Lake Shore express route on its express zone during light LSD traffic to hear that final progression.

Busjack Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 To answer your question without the need to hear all your video clips, the differences you heard is because 1000-1929 have ZF transmissions while 1930-2029 were equipped with Allison B400 transmissions. .... That doesn't seem to answer his question, though, since he said that the ZFs used to have 3 different patterns. There also seems to be several types of Cummins engines (i.e. smaller ones on 1630 and up), but that's the extent of my expertise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
