Snookie ◊ 2011-09-04 22:47	@karoomay, these are destined for the scrapyard.
CougarTim ◊ 2011-09-05 06:35	They don't sell them off? Surely there must be smaller cities, college campuses, etc. that can easier afford second-hand buses than new ones and would love to have these.
Snookie ◊ 2011-09-05 07:00	Unfortunately, here in Chicago, officials are not very open minded to this idea.
rtsbusman1997 ◊ 2011-09-07 02:57	Not necessarily. From what I read, Chicago buses can and have ended up with contractors across the US.
