#8442 is at South Shops.

Updated my list on pg 18. Should have 76 #8350's.

#8416 is in front of #8442 so I added it to the list.

8395 is at SS as well so i have 78 on my list

In typical CTA fashion the interior and exterior signs aren't functional for its first day out. ???

Based on a video I spotted on YouTube from one CTA Amir, the farebox and Ventra reader were also down on this bus on its first day out in revenue service. And I agree with Shannon's statement that this likely means we won't see the remaining 6400s on the road much longer, if ever, given how few of them are left at this point. And I'm not sure if it was the newness of the bus, but that ISL9 was sounding slightly different than the other Novas even though it's the same Cummins ISL9 pair with a ZF 6A1400B.

Yeah I have #8395 around 6/3/22. That's at least when I saw it. Seeing how the base order is nearly complete I'll do another sweep of the list of buses at SS.

Good cause I feel like I'm missing some of these #8410's.

At this rate,  the base order will be delivered before any of them see revenue service. 

They will be shipped to Louisville, Kentucky in exchange for some slightly older diesel buses.

{One might notice some old traction railfan remembrances here.?

Well it seems like FG is getting theirs but not 103rd,  at least not yet.

I was out on Thursday. Thanks ? to traffic being temporarily slowed, I managed to take photographs of new Nova #8348 running eastbound on route #77 Belmont.

I mildly cringe on how, when this model runs in Owl service, is "Halsted" displayed?

(Really, who is programming the software for these buses?) ?

No, they're just buried among all the other 8350s it's hard to find them to be quite honest.

I was looking for #8398, #8427 might be new cause it's on the outside but #8414 was probably last week or the week before in July.

Any buses you see on the outer row are new deliveries, so you are correct on your assumption.

Forgot to mention that I saw 6 more #8350s deadheaded onto the Dan Ryan headed north two nights ago to FG, I didn’t have my camera on me at the time.
