checkmatechamp13 Posted September 30, 2012 Share #2807 Posted September 30, 2012 (edited) I didn't realize that at one time, there used to be a #55 bus from Port Richmond to Journal Square. (At least, according to a comment by ferryboi in this article) And this is a fail. That bus should be in the center lane, going straight onto Morningstar Road, not making a right turn onto Forest. I wonder how the B/O got back onto the route. But to be fair, the picture is from when the route first started back in 2007. (Ah, how I miss the days of O5s on the S89). It's all O7s nowadays.

FlashThunder Posted September 30, 2012 Share #2808 Posted September 30, 2012 The announcement "please move away from doors" on C40LF sounds so sad...compared to same announcements on LFSA buses... IMO 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Via Garibaldi 8 Posted September 30, 2012 Share #2811 Posted September 30, 2012 I don't get why some B/Os have all of the friggin' lights out when passengers are boarding or getting off of the express bus. Bus is pitch black and folks can barely see and are almost sitting on other people accidentially. Commonsense should tell them to have the lights on during those times. I know one thing... If anyone is injured because of that you better believe that they'd sue the and rightfully so for creating a dangerous situation that could be avoided. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2Julio Posted September 30, 2012 Share #2812 Posted September 30, 2012 Someone messed up the signs for the detours of buses for the Atlantic buses big time. Not even 10am yet and the buses have stopped running already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewFlyer 230 Posted September 30, 2012 Share #2813 Posted September 30, 2012 I like how southern Queens MTA Bus routes got street and stop changes. The only thing I don't like about some of the routes is that it takes so long for the bus to come. The Q41 on Saturday around 1:30PM took 35 minutes to come, and I always thought the Q112 was bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B3 Via Av U Posted September 30, 2012 Share #2814 Posted September 30, 2012 What in the name of Great Scott's mad hell was an LFS artic in the SBS wrap crossing the Mahattan Bridge to Brooklyn doing, then going down Flatbush Avenue.

B44 SBS preperation transfer? Didn't catch the number or depot. Going down Flatbush? The 3 Shuttle is on today, that usually takes a couple SBS LFSAs from 126th for service, there was also an SBS LFSA in town for BusFest, but that route doesn't sound like it. -- So by the looks of it, most all of WF's C40s have driver and door side ads. Only SC and CP without them now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add Jackie gleason to the equation with NO driver and door side ads. Only front ads. It really sucks that you can't put a rear ad on the back of those buses b/c of the engine compartment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just on 8012 saturday afternoon, cords were fine when i was on it. Add Jackie gleason to the equation with NO driver and door side ads. Only front ads. It really sucks that you can't put a rear ad on the back of those buses b/c of the engine compartment. Ehh.. The buses have side ads and front ads. You just have to find the right ones, saw a couple of them with side ads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S78 via Hylan Posted October 1, 2012 Share #2820 Posted October 1, 2012 Finally rode a Prevost this evening. Caught 2445 on the X1 heading toward Manhattan which was an excellent, comfortable, satisfying ride. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHV9218 Posted October 1, 2012 Share #2821 Posted October 1, 2012 So what reason would a depot have to remove all the ads from a bus? I would think a wrap, but it doesn't make sense to me. 3941 is running around with the ads all removed but the same coat of paint, so that's why I ask. Quoting myself...trippy, I know. So there are more Quill NGs stripped of ads, just saw 3900 naked as well. Wonder if there's some wrap they'll be doing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know for fact that SC doesn't have ANY ads on their buses. For JG, I only know for 320-349 with bustime.. All others just for right now, forget it. PS: Since Downtown Brooklyn looking like a mini manhattan, they need to bring some of those king size ads (driver side) to FB/ENY/GA. Since those depots pass through downtown. UP has them only for express buses. I see that UP is using those king size ads (driver size) on their buses again. 2066 (UP) has it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, it's only the NGs and they've taken off the roof ads, front ads, and both sides, lot more than they usually would do just for new ads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
