One less 34st crosstown bus with a GPS on it.

 

One broke down at the terminal at Waterside (I was walking over the overpass to work earlier at that time) and there was a Bus Mainainence truck parked behind it.

 

About 90 minutes after that, I went downstairs on my break and I saw the RTS rolling by under the overhang

That explains a lot. Do you by any chance have the broken down bus #?

Yes, Church and E.48St.

 

Yes... and I was about 1/2 hour away from possibly gettin caught in that s***....

 

Me & my cuzzo had went & got some chinese food that saturday... I don't know (in front of what bldg) where the actual shooting took place, but I'm willing to bet it was in front of either one of those 3 stores next to the chinese food place:

 

- in front of that damn booty parlor

- in front of that record store, or

- in front of that other resturant/catering place

 

...either way, it's always some always some BS happening on that side of the block, esp. on a saturday night....

 

She (my cousin) went back out to Kennedy's (utica/snyder)... calls me up & was like, yo, somebody got shot by the chinese store... all of church av is blocked off...

 

All I could do is *smh* & tell her.... "what else is new"....

but make sure you get your black a** back home...

hey changed the lane assignments at Williamsburg Bridge Plz. They finally put the Q59 in the terminal. The order used to be...

 

Lane 1: B24

Lane 2: B44

Lane 3 (biggest lane): B46

Lane 4: Q54

Lane 5: B60

Lane 6: B39 (after the service cuts, it sat vacant)

 

Now the order is...

 

Lane 1: B24

Lane 2: B44

Lane 3: B46

Lane 4: Q59

Lane 5: B60

Lane 6: Q54

On the newer buses (i.e. the Orion VIIs and the Novabus LFSAs) there are announcements when the doors open and close. I know when the doors close the announcement is "Doors Closing", but for whatever reason I can't really make out the announcement when the doors are opening. Does anyone know what it is?

 

Those back door announcement are so annoying every time I ride an NG on the B47.
