Erin Mishkin Jr. Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 7952 is now on the 3 King Drive, so they removed that pole obviously because who can drive a bus with a pole on the seat ?? No one, so during the night they took the pole off so whoever was taking it on the 3 today they get to drive it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't make this stuff up, when I was about to do my pull out pre trip inspection I see that and I couldn't help but laugh. I mean look at this. Driver got fed up with the constant call offs and lack of reliefs so started practicing to be a stripper and quit ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have to pull that hard drive. I'm surprised the seat wasnt damaged. The shop might be trying to keep someone from taking the bus. We've had buses people pulled out and they needed to come back from incomplete work being done on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geneking7320 Posted October 8, 2020 Report Share Posted October 8, 2020 Please pardon me for not having pics but today [10/7/2020] a little after 12:00pm I saw a 4 car train of 2400s (work motors?) southbound approaching Cermak. I noticed (from 21st Street by the tracks) that it had 4 Skokie Swift signs (on the operator's side of the train). Any significance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent Posted October 10, 2020 Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 Did the #35 extend service from 24th Pl/Cicero? I've seen #35 buses at 16th/Cicero and Cermak/Kenton lately even though CTA's website says nothing about it. The other day a reroute for the #18 at 16th/Cicero because of construction included the #35 and now there's another reroute for the #35 at Cermak/Kenton.

If the 18 was rerouted to Cicero and 34th Pl, is it possible the 35 was rerouted to Cermak and Kent on? With the 54 and 60 at 24th., there wouldn't be enough room for the 18 and the 35 there so one of those 2 routes needed to temporarily move.

Naw what it is sometimes you will come off the 35 or 60 & have to switch to the 21 or 18 or vice versa ive did it a few times myself & sometimes we may wait till we ready to start the route to switch the sign its like the game with the 57 65 & 73 when you see a 65 says to Laramie when it goes dam near to Harlem its either finna switch to the 73 or 57 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those reroutes stay up for days and don't get corrected which leads me to believe it's not an accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erin Mishkin Jr. Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 5145 (right) has a bit of visible paint which is rainbow colored on the top left of the car and the window frame has some paint too. 5146 has no numbering on either side of the side shown in this picture. There should be numbers on the other side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
