Busjack Posted January 30, 2023 Report Share Posted January 30, 2023 Federal jury awards $99,000 to CTA electrician who claimed harassment at work, including noose hung at a rail garage. BTW: CTA's legal position stated at the end of the article is incorrect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I thought it was cause they had the pic of law breakers coming out of the water at the lagoon over there on Washington & Hamlin outwest so that's why I thought he ditched it there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erin Mishkin Jr. Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 Does anyone know if #1501 ever had an interior number? I rode it in 2021, and I rode it again earlier today, both times it never had an interior number. I’m just wondering if 1501 has always been like this or if it had an interior number before.

Civic Staffing is a temp agency, and apparently found a cheaper way to get its workers home. BTW, it isn't even Avon anymore, but Farevea. Maybe it no longer needed temps or that agency.

I grew up seeing 800s and 1000s on the 53 back in 2006-07. As the rest of the 800s were transferred to Kedzie around 2007 or 08. I began seeing the 1930s roaming the 53,54,54B and X54. There’s a video of #2023 with that Allison howling ass on the X54 making that right turn 5 minutes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ChicagoRail Posted February 7, 2023 Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 Well as it stands right now there's one New Flyer (1393) on #81 Lawrence, so I guess I could say that I seem to see Novas on the route more often than I see New Flyers.

The 54'-5600's to the NF's to the 4400'S 6000's but most likely a different supervisor now on those routes so they be wanting different things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these not examples of the interlining? The Loop Brown Line and Purple Line Express between the Loop and Belmont (with the Red Line joining around Willow Street) Red Line and Purple Line Express between Belmont and Howard Orange and Green Lines between the Loop and 17th Street Pink and Green Lines between the Loop and Paulina If not, what's the technical term for interlining?

Busjack Posted February 7, 2023 Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 2 hours ago, curiousgent31385 said: If not, what's the technical term for interlining? Interlining consists of several routes in sequence in one run. For instance, the Brownage started at Midway, ran in service on the Orange Line, became a Brown Line, and did the reverse on the way back. Reason was that there is no way to expand Kimball Yard without destroying the Albany Park business district. Interlining is more frequent on the bus side, such as in tracking the electric buses, a 12 became a 66, or because FG doesn't have articulateds, a NP bus did a FG school trip. Pace used to interline nearly everything at a common terminal point (suchs as Elgin TC, Sheridan Road in Waukegan), but not as much now. For instance, about 20 years ago, a 212 was scheduled to leave Evanston 20 minutes before one returned, but to maintain the scheduled interval of once an hour on a trip that took 80 minutes to complete, 212 pulling into Benson St. flipped to 208 and 208 flipped to 212. That ended when 212 was discontinued. For North Division to cover 272, there is a long interline of 565 or 572 to 574 to 272. What you mentioned is, at most, using the same track. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got it, thanks for the clarification. Do a lot of CTA bus routes interline at the Jefferson Park terminal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
