It still has the black paint near the windows tho. Yea 6712 is in FG 3rd lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam92 Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 For anyone interested or curious IRM is updating it site with timetables of former routes. Like Drexel-Hyde Park, 13 SW Skokie, 14 Devon, 14 South Lake Shore. Numerically they paused at 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It saves time and money rather than running the full route before returning to the garage. .@NewFlyerMCI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 14 S Lake Shore debuted in January 1982. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some of them already have them and added some '98 routes so expect the archer, Stevenson and midway express to pop up soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Cta does the work too soon and cdot finds they need to shift the ROW then that's extra work. It's hard to figure out what's going on here. CTA said it was fixing Racine station: Quote Design contracts for the track improvements, Racine station, and traction power updates received NTP in June and July of this year and designs are expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2022 for track improvements, and in the second quarter of 2023 for the Racine station and traction power. [2022 budget page 21] In the meantime, the most recent talk seemed to be about reconstruction of the expressway from Austin to Hillside, which wouldn't affect CTA, since the tracks are to the side of the expressway, although this article doesn't make that sound exclusive.

A little bit of whatever they can get off of deadheads most likely. The quickest way to FG is to go to I-94 so they're probably offering rush hour commuters an extra option from michigan to the west loop while they recover even just A little bit of coin. Think of it as no different than J14 using some rush extras as 192s on the way back to the garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought even though the tracks were on the side that part of the reason for dragging and waiting on CDOT is because one of the proposals to widen the Express would even up needing to use some space in that ROW forcing the frieght line to close a lesser used track? We need to backtrack through some earlier forums lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dam they calling for 16 days of shut down its a bit much but I would most def be with it if they said 16 hours they wanted cta to shut down cause that mf van dyke got off way too easy if that had of been me I would have gotten more then 16 years but since hes white & was a cop they get slaps on the wrist but I hope they do some else I'm took that day off anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
