It doesn't necessarily have to pull into one of the bays (where the #85, #703, and #772 do).... I can see it picking up in that area that the #355 normally goes on layover at (proximate to the entrance on that side of the mall, where the TVM's are at)... Yeah, there was also an artic on the 85 yesterday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XcelsiorBoii4888 Posted March 10, 2022 Share #2527 Posted March 10, 2022 NJT XD60 20910 is the most SOLID built Xcelsior I've ever witnessed. Not a single rattle can be heard, especially leave PABT. Listen to how this bus just EATS those potholes up starting at 1:15. So the build quality is there! VERY THERE. Its just not consistent. I was very very impressed. This video was from Aug 2021. I wonder how the bus is doing now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
go25 Posted March 11, 2022 Share #2528 Posted March 11, 2022 Is it weird that I know that NJT has saved a few ALP-44s for a possible return to service? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jass Posted March 22, 2022 Share #2535 Posted March 22, 2022 Suburban Transit has been operating bare-bones service between Princeton and New Brunswick for over 2 years now. While the first 6 months or so made sense, theres no excuse for failing to restore the local service. Does NJT have any requirements they must meet to keep the route or can they do this forever? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is Suburban's route. They can do it forever. It will be increased slowly as the NYC traffic improves as it is likely not sustainable without the high yield NYC traffic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea where the NJT routes that still go into Philly terminate/start at in Center City so I'm just gonna avoid that take Philly bus to Camden and transfer nonsense. NJT south jersey riders don't have the political pull to force NJT to send those routes cut back to Camden into Philly (but terminate on the street)?

If your logged in manually as said line, the time prediction will be based off of the time it left the start point and not as the bus is moving if in automatic mode. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can in theory, but it is their policy not to do so. NJT's resources are very thin and if the private sector is providing a service, they will try and avoid competing with them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
