busfan4022 Posted December 15, 2006 Report Posted December 15, 2006 Walking home today, I saw bunched buses. 1 of them was a 6000, the other was a Nova, and the last on was a TMC. The 6000, and Nova, was on the #80 route. While the TMC destination sign was broken, and the back number was gone, only a "4" was there. But I saw some people on it, and the side number was 4583. Was this a fill in bus? Or has Forest Glen got some "new" buses? Quote
cta6085 Posted December 15, 2006 Report Posted December 15, 2006 I think that would be a fill in, north park did extras Quote
MetroShadow Posted December 15, 2006 Report Posted December 15, 2006 Chances may be that those may be Addison buses resetting after a WB 152 run from Lane Tech. Either they redo another 152 route or they go downtown and start northbound from there. Quote

busfan4022 Posted December 20, 2006 Author Report Posted December 20, 2006 Now there are New Flyers. I saw 5807 today heading EB on that route Quote
rmadisonwi Posted December 21, 2006 Report Posted December 21, 2006 Which route are we talking about? North Park operates certain afternoon peak trips on route 152, due to the number of schools along Addison. North Park also operates three short trips on the 92, one from Northside, and two from Amundsen east to the Red Line. Quote
busfan4022 Posted December 21, 2006 Author Report Posted December 21, 2006 I saw a 4400 on route 80 & a New Flyer on 152. Quote
jesi2282 Posted December 21, 2006 Report Posted December 21, 2006 Well in this photo taken by RIPTA42, it shows a 4400 inside Jefferson Park. http://www.chicagobus.org/forum/attachment.php?aid=244 Quote
rmadisonwi Posted December 21, 2006 Report Posted December 21, 2006 Can't explain the route 80, perhaps used by a supervisor in an emergency. As for the 4400 at Jeff Park, if that photo was taken some time in the morning, that would make sense. It's complicated, but a North Park bus could conceivably be found at Jefferson Park during the morning rush. Quote
MetroShadow Posted December 21, 2006 Report Posted December 21, 2006 It's complicated, but a North Park bus could conceivably be found at Jefferson Park during the morning rush. Well depending on how early that was taken, it might have been a 92 ready to run EB to the red line. I'll still stand by that as being plausible to figure. Quote
busfan4022 Posted December 23, 2006 Author Report Posted December 23, 2006 How long is this suppose to last? Quote
RIPTA42 Posted January 2, 2007 Report Posted January 2, 2007 The RTS at Jeff Park is a 6:40-something AM put-in from North Park on the 92. It leaves as an 85 Central to Addison, where I assume it becomes a 152. Quote
