That is possible - Gates-Chili seemed to disappear after a short time.
I just tried to check and the Rochester site appears to be off the air. Bristol in on the air and showing no neighbor list.

I agree 30 is a van service now and there is a new TG2029. No idea who either of the are. Just like their LTR system, so many small business users it is very difficult to ID them.

I thought 2029 was Northrup Concrete? Extremely rare anyone ids themselfs. Also I haven't checked to see if Rochester was back up.

I did find new tg 2024,which sounds like town dpw.
You are right about 2029. I had not updated my TG list so it was showing as unknown and it was just 2 guys with brief comments that sounded like maybe snow plowing. Probably their people plowing their yard.
I am listening now for 2024.

Some units on TG 30 are calling "Chili Base" but they are all IDing as "VAN#". I am also seeing 2 dispatchers "Base 1" and "Base 2".

This could be "Westside Express":
"Transportation services for residents of Gates, Chili, North Chili NY for ages 60+ and people with disabilities of all ages. Operates M-F 8am-5pm"

Westside Express is sponsored by St Theodore's Church but I don't know if it is provided by contractor or who dispatches. I want to check on Monday when school is in session to see if there is any school involvement on this TG like special needs transportation. I believe when I originally submitted it it appeared to be special needs transportation for Gates-Chili Schools.

Very good on your research of the van service. Makes lot of sense.
I personaly haven't heard any school transportation on this system in long time.
Also I hear lot of Gates - Chili buses on their uhf channel.

I am going to revise the submission depending on what I hear when the schools are open next week. It may be like that one on LTR we discussed recently that picks up special needs students for a school district in the morning then adult van services the rest of the day.

I'm not sure i've listen the ltr system. So i've no idea what's there or not.
When you were looking for Ontario Bus, I was watching 2 possibilities on LTR net and one was mix of school buses and vans. I could not positively ID either one but we ruled out Ontario.

I am submitting to change TG30 to Van Service - Gates Chili area, Transportation since it is not the school district. It is probably "Westside Express" since it seems to serve the Gates -Chili area exclusively but I am going to keep the description generic.

Churchville-Chili TG 2000 was active this morning. I think my original ID of TG30 as Gates-Chili CSD was in error. What I heard early this morning with "Chili Base" talking about picking up or not picking up certain individuals on their route is what made me originally believe it was the school buses.
