NewFlyerMCI Posted July 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 I just thought about it, but CTA didn't have to implement a different schedule yesterday, since the 4th fell on a Sunday lol. I imagine a Sunday schedule is also being ran today as well though ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 72 did have extra`s for the Air and Water shows when they were scheduled as the show was at the doorstep of the beach east terminal.

Only East west routes between Roosevelt and Chicago run extras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine a Sunday schedule is also being ran today as well though ? Sunday service when it comes to the 4th and nye falling on a weekend depends on the day. Saturday’s mean the country observes on the friday before and runs holiday service (banks etc close for the day). Sundays mean the holiday gets observed on Monday and the Sunday schedule is run then. Extras depends strictly on when the event is taking place if there was a big thing going on yesterday the we could’ve had extras as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BusHunter Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 Almost fell over when I saw #1095 pulling into ups on the #169. As much as I've worked in that area I never have seen a 40 footer on the #169. But this has been a bad week for the ups shuttles. On Tuesday #6326 died out right at Lagrange and 67th in the morning going to ups with a full load. It was hot and these guys were all standing in the forest preserve waiting tor another bus. All we all know who knows when the next #392 is? So I see them and I'm driving around I keep seeing them. It was like 2 hours before help showed up in the form of maintenance. Never did see a bus. I wanted to take them into ups myself, but my boss would have had my butt if he found out. The cops showed up and lagrange was a mess but I guess maintenance got it going cause the people and the bus was gone after around 11. This happened around 9. Was noticing traffic was light at ups yesterday. I think everyone stayed home from the heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So looks like 6326 has broken down on Tuesday, and then they put out the triangles to show it was broken, but do you know if they repaired it at the spot or if they had to tow it back to the garage?
