And the next garage to get New Flyers is...

Yeah, if they get the funding for the remaining 620 options. If past trends hold (and again, even Carole doesn't know where they are going) only one more garage for the first 450. 74 and 103 will probably have an average age of 19 before they get anything (if I were betting now, probably 1000s handed down from Archer when it gets 1800s).

If previous trends are correct 112 or 113 per garage (i.e. the Novas were 117 per garage until the order was expanded a bit for C and FG). Kedzie is probably now a bit short, because scuttlebutt on this forum was that it was getting the hybrids.

The first option of New Flyers has picked up right where the initial order left off. Bus 1249 is now in service out of 77th Garage. A few bus transfers between garages are anticipated (some of which may have already occurred), which will result in a few of the lower numbered 1100s going from Kedzie to Archer, a few of the lower numbered 1200s going from 77th to Kedzie, and the final five Flxibles leaving Archer for 103rd.

Are One Of Those Final Five Flxibles A Cummins?

(Unless, of course, that New Flyer was on #9 to fill in for a broken-down bus.)
Too many reports of fill-ins on Ashland lately to make the inference of a reassignment. See, for instance, post 3319. You are correct that the number should be reported, but unless it was a high 1200, probably not a training bus (my statement about the Oracle notwithstanding).
