I don't think it was noted above, but for those of you complaining about 74th, @maths22's tracker indicates that roughly 8699-8714 are at 74th: Run History indicates that 8709, 8712, 8713 are still currently at FG.

RTD8481 Posted September 23 Report Share Posted September 23 Why are they’re sending 7900s to FG and sending out it’s newest equipment? Makes absolutely no sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTA has historically done mileage swaps, especially involving 77th, including New Looks between 77 and NP, 5300s from 103rd for 4400s from 77th. Someone in Bus Ops has some sort of plan, and it isn't (despite the implications from some posters) that FG gets 250 8350s. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been three buses so far That’s crazy, have the other two buses been repaired? 8379 was the only one they parked on the street side. Do you know if 8376 was involved in the same incident as I saw that bus in the dead line and the last route operated was the 91. I see the pillar in the third picture I took but I didn’t think too much of it until you told me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those got noted in the More Bus Moves CTA thread as a number of those were DNC shuttles that were briefly at FG if they were in service before the convention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
