They kept that bus running for a while after fresh moves went bankrupt but after being inside the bus If CTA really wanted to bring life back to it they'll need a boat load of money.

Bus1883 Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 Well well well, today was a bit interesting since it is nice outside, #1419 has some sort of issues going on with it with wrecker #210 leaving the scene, #4318 was spotted going around the boneyard twice maybe looking for a spot to sit defunct while awaiting maintenance for a couple weeks to months on the sideline?. #1295 is out in the sun maybe training some new drivers. And while I parked my car for a little bit I have seen #255 sitting on the side parked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks that they preserved 8499 and that 3700 but after seeing them add #6472 to the historical fleet and not #5858 or even considering #6163 is a head scratcher for me.
