They were delivered during the past week. #8402 should be somewhere around that herd of buses on the westside of the shops. So over half of the base orderbhas been delivered and not one of these buses has seen revenue service. Yo our knowledge, only one of these buses was spotted on any street ( Foster). I guess the Collision Avoidance System is don't put the bases on the street. ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can avoid collisions in the yard ??. Also, that generally avoids being whacked in the side by a car driver violating a red light or a stop sign (typical for Chicago), but NovaBus advertised around 2000 that the side skirts could take that ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungBusLover Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 I found this video on YouTube and basically it showcases what the MTA started doing a few years ago in regards to the Collision Avoidance System. Pretty clear cut to what the 8350s have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungBusLover Posted June 30, 2022 Report Share Posted June 30, 2022 So I just got to SS and to my surprise #8350 along with many other #8350s that were parked on the eastern edge of the boneyard have disappeared. There was about 7-8 total sitting lined up nose to tail sitting for almost a month. I wouldn't say that they might have been moved to FG or 103rd but it's clear that they're not here anymore.

So connecting the dots it appears FG gave up 9 elderly #1000s with the looming delivery of #8350s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a 50/50 split? There'are enough byses for one garage to get 50 now and the other garage will have 50 in short order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJL6000 Posted July 1, 2022 Report Share Posted July 1, 2022 I am suspecting now that the evens are going to FG while the odds are going to 103rd. This will push more of the eldest 1000s to other garages, primarily K and NP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
