I like his channel and more people are finding about his channel too. He does behind the scenes videos at the kedzie garage and he also does videos of him operating different buses like #1240 a couple times and 1728.

YoungBusLover Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 I never thought we were this short for buses during the PM period but man oh man. There's only 166 buses out right now in service and the #4000s are the main suspects in all of this. Only 36 are in service versus the the 66 #1000s and 62 #7900s that are out. There's at least seven or eight operators waiting at the signout booth waiting for available buses and a few like myself have been here for at least over an hour now. It's kind of like a mini day off for those on swings and trippers. This is becoming more frequent now at least at 77th, has any other operators from garages had this issue recently?
