During Riot Fest does the pink line still  run 6 car consists? I remember years ago back in 2017 I happened to commute on the pink line during Riot Fest & trains were six cars packed and the car I was on was a 5000 loaned from the red line. I was curious because a longer train is very rare on the pink line.

I always miss it lol & I work downtown with my job facing the l tracks. I just happened to be on vacation last week. I wonder where they burrow from nowadays considering the first day of riot fest is a regular weekday.

Their website only indicates a sale to a private operator (Academy Lines).  It's not like they are bidding on Buy America Act contracts.

Seemed like there were other Canadian companies (like Damera) at APTA.

A altercation between 2 passengers happened on #1027, it stopped tracking on the 4 after the incident on the bus. We transferred to #8145. I believe CPD has been called.

Do people know the difference between an argument and an altercation?  This appears to be an altercation for sure.  The CTA Incident at the Damen Green Line was an argument that escalated into a shooting.  

 

Glad no one got shot this time.

Not on the news at the moment so I’m sure it was minor. Bus didn’t get damaged so it might return to service later.
