Buses to be on the lookout for: 5616, 5620, 5622, 5625, 5627, 5632, 5636, 5642, 5644-45, 5672, 5674-75, 5678, 5697-98, 5701, 5704, 5709 Apparently these buses are still reported as non overhaul. I'm pretty sure most of the buses on this list has received an overhauled or in the progress of receiving one. So please be on alert for these units so we can revise our list. Hopefully the 2004 New Flyer overhauls will be underway, It seems like Berridge has reset their forcus on overhauling the Neoplan Artic fleets with some NABIS being mixed into the load. After going past Courtland the other day, from a sneak peak it appears theirs a slew of Neoplan Artics parked in the yard there... |

Why does everyone keep skipping 7130, I saw it in Center City on saturday. Question: Are some Nabi's being overhauled? I have seen some with ads removed. |

Ok saw 5837H again today.........this time it was working the 46 leaving 63/Malven around 2:10 PM. My feeling is they are testing the Callowhill routes with a hybrid prior to the arrival of the new batch. Either that or they have started to train. |

Scratch 7103 - it's not rehabbed yet. Add 7177 - saw it yesterday and this AM on 48. Strangely enough, even though it's been through rehab, the sign wasn't working. Yesterday it was completely blank (only knew that it was a 48 from the block). Today it was stuck halfway between 'Front-Market' and '29th St-Allegheny Ave', resulting in a display of (no route number) 9th St Fron eny Ave I thought I had reported 7130 as being rehabbed previously, but I won't swear to it. |

Major mess out on the EI this afternoon, apparently there were some power issues around 69th street which caused all trains to load and unload on track #1. I've never seen such an procedure happened before. And to top things off, The train which I've boarded was misrouted and ended up on the wrong side of the tracks until the next crossover after 63rd and Market, delaying the westbound train!!! BTW on another note but possible related note given to the power problems. I've never seen 69th street so clean in my life. For the past weak, crews has been in and around the station polishing the floors and the walls! |

I saw 5057 on the route 30 at 69th street today. The designation sign was extremely clear!! I assume this NABI will not be one of the ones facing replacement this year. As matter as fact, It seems to be in pretty good shape as well. |
