@JHS - The filter on link above is for crimes at “CTA Bus Stop”. I reconfigured the database with the following filters:

1 - Filtered all areas outside the police beats along Garfield between Cornell Drive and Cicero. You can see the police beats here:

2 - Used “CTA Bus” as a filter instead of “CTA Bus Stop”. You should be able to see the results in the following link.

https://data.cityofchicago.org/Public-Safety/Beats-Along-Garfield/t7w7-4sz3

Based on these filters, there were 1,268 crimes committed on CTA buses matching the route of Garfield/55, an average of 85 per year or once every 4.3 days. Most of those crimes occurred in the stretch between the expressway and Western Avenue.
