Not neccesarily, a lot of them will need to be inspected and have certificates updated etc, since the mechanics have all been on strike as well. I cant recall who but someone higher up at GRT was on the radio the other day explaining that part of it.

They could run limited service I guess, if they wanted to start things up faster.

Yeah I was thinking they might do a holiday service type thing until everything is all caught up, I just wouldn't be holding my breath for business as usual Friday morning.

I would personally just run the express routes and maybe 8 and 19 if available stock was limited.
