ajm522 Posted March 2, 2021 Report Posted March 2, 2021 It seems that CTA has quietly started putting boxes of surgical masks on the luggage rack right when you enter the bus. This is different from their "Pilot Box dispensers" It is a little late but hey makes them look good. Quote

Erin Mishkin Jr. Posted March 2, 2021 Report Posted March 2, 2021 Has anyone seen those on non-Forest glen buses yet? The only bus I rode that did have masks in that bin recently was 1004 and all the others I don’t think had masks in them. Also that picture above is in 1135. Quote

I've ridden at least 5 NP buses in the last two days & each had a box of surgical masks. I took a couple to have extras in the jacket pockets, because I keep having to go back to the house & get one.

YoungBusLover Posted March 11, 2021 Report Posted March 11, 2021 Got a bus potentially involved in a shooting on 63rd and King Drive heading easthound, there is a heavy presence over there at that location. Couldn't get the bus # involved though. Update: Bus wasn't involved but there was one sitting at that location at the time of the shooting. Quote
dailycommuter62 Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 Found this photo dated 1992, looks like a early D40LF demo with illinois plates debuting the 15 shopper loop route. Anyone have more info on this bus? More photos 1 Quote

No I didn't know about this bus but I have a feeling it could've been a demo but not from CTA. This bus is definitely a New Flyer. This bus in the pic is running the 10 Shopper route which pretty much a reincarnation of the old 149 Stateline route and the predecessor to the current 10 Museum of Science and Industry route. The 15 Shopper was an east west route connecting Michigan with the train stations I know the company i worked for received those low floors in 1994 and we sent one to K for CTA to look at. I don't remember them keeping it, but I suppose that visit prompted then to order 65 of them which I think were 1995 models, though it could have been 1994s . Based on the livery, it either was a New Flyer demo or a bus destined for another agency. It wasn't our bus. Quote
