Here's some photos from Wednesday, September 30th:

The bus that started it all...New Flyer 1000:


1341 waits to turn at a light with both Popeyes & Subway share space:


Flxible 6075 laying over on Route 72 near Lincoln Park:


6026 driving through Lincoln Park with the midst of fall leaves changing:


1371 cruising down converted North Side apartments on one of two heavy lines:


6182 works as a driver shuttle for the Chicago Cubs game:


6167 leaving Jefferson Park CTA Station in the midst of the afternoon rush hour:


Now for PACE:

2359, a 1993 Orion I still puffing along:


PACE operates 161 Orion VIs in active service built between 2000 to 2004. 6128 is seen leaving on Route 270, one of the heavier PACE routes:


Lastly, PACE's largest fleet comes from NABI, which has delivered upwards of 300 buses to the system since 1998; 6204 is one of 100+ that was ordered in 2003 and is seen on Chicago's South Side:
