  1. Back from AC/Wildwood/Cape May. Was OK, weather was windy but not raining like up in the city, but there were too much swagkids down there, shit. Gotta love Jersey.

      Those kids are everywhere....

      Yup, that's just where they all go to party Memorial Day Weekend. NY, PA, they were all there too, not just the Jersey kids.

  2. Saw a Millennium RTS for the first time in person just now. Great looking bus.

  3. My damn stabilizer was off ALL DAY today... just great.

      Whats a stabilizer? For the camera?

  4. Academy Wifi needs to work more often.

      Other than w/a mobile device, why bother using it if you aren't going to be there more than an hour?

      It comes in handy, lots of other people on the bus get out their laptops and use it too and complain when it doesn't work.

  5. Caught CSX in downtown Freehold a bit earlier for the first time.

  6. R142As could be on the (5) this weekend!

      No one fanned that... It was all about the R62A (2) trains lol.

  7. The ZF Ecomat air raid siren!

      Are you talking about the 1200 Novas LOL?

      No SEPTA's D40LFs...

  8. Took an Academy 139 run in this morning for the first time, passed up an MCI CNG and a NJT D4500 too and ended up on 8589. Best decision I ever made, Academy doesn't make you sit on the damn bus all the way to the 300 level gates like NJT does and lets you off in that drop off area where the 126 and a bunch of others let you off. Definitely gonna take Academy regularly now instead of NJT, unless I wanna ride something different.

      They only do that in the AM...PM they go upstairs

    2. Orion VII 4 Life

      Orion VII 4 Life

      Yeah, I don't think they can pick up over there. Still beats going through that jungle on NJT in the AM.

  9. Spent literally 5 seconds busfanning on Route 9 just now before I realized it was too damn cold out...

      You got pics and vids in 5 seconds? Thats amazing, i'd love to know how to do that!

  10. Just pulled an epic prank at the Queens Center Mall. Almost got arrested too, luckily I outran Paul Blart into Macy's and he walked away.

      I threw a bunch of play money over the railing on the 4th floor lol, did it right next to a mall cop without realizing it. Got some good reactions downstairs lol.

  11. Rode NJT MCI CNG 7045 earlier today, definitely the best backfire I've heard on one of those.

  12. ROUTE 139 New York via Freehold Center. Welcome aboard New Jersey Transit.

    1. B35 via Church

      B35 via Church

      So that older white lady is still operating the #139 huh... lol....

       

      ....or were you just saying that just to be saying that?

      Clever Devices announcement actually. They're showing up on the Howell buses now.

      DaTransitMan4608

      Well I guess i'll have something to look forward to tomorrow when I take the 139 into the city

  13. Here at FLL airport ready to head back up, I'm sorry but in a lot of ways I like it better here than NY. Gonna be back soon as usual.

  14. Never thought I'd see (or ride) a NABI 40LFW with pull cords and a passenger-operated rear door, but I just rode one at Broward County Transit.

      The Miami ones are a lot better IMO, the High-Floors dont got governors on them.(whats left of the HFs.)

    3. Orion VII 4 Life

      Orion VII 4 Life

      These new NABIs at BCT (40LFWs and BRTs) actually aren't that bad.

      Now if only you could get the Miami-Dade units....those suckers fly! I'm not a fan of their New Flyer DE62LFAs though....such ugly buses and they ride like crap.

       

      The 2002(?) or 2004(?) LFWs with the Cummins are crotch rockets, some of them are beat up but they are fast as hell. My favorites will be their NABI 411 high floors though. They had no governors on them.

  15. Palm Tran's Gilligs can HAUL ASS!!!! Damn!

  16. Going to Florida tomorrow morning! GILLIG HAPPY TIME!!

      Well I'm headed further south by Miami and Palm Beach so hopefully it won't be that bad.

  17. Had a real great time today on NJT coming back to Manhattan from the Meadowlands, great way to start what's gonna be a great week! Gonna catch some good stuff here tomorrow, then going to Florida first thing Tuesday!

  18. Dear Leader Barack Obama swore to uphold our great Constitution. Yet he's tried to limit/basically repeal numerous Constitutional amendments on many occasions, and now he's at it again trying to repeal the 2nd Amendment. Worst of all, the liberals let him get away with it all. Time to #impeachobama.

      And what is this magical 250k limit, that's barely enough to get buy in tax heavy states like NY and CA. I think the 1 million limit sounds very fair.

      Stop taxing and spending, cut spending and have less taxing. Govt needs to be shrunken.

      VG8, so true. Liberals dominate NY. Wow, I'm agreeing with GC.

  19. Left my backpack on the floor in the food court at Queens Center Mall while I ate, and of course I forget to pick it up when I leave and I F**KING LOSE MY $600 DSLR. Whoever took it, PLEASE do the right thing and turn it into mall security, at least the bag, chargers and stuff, and my SD card.

      No one here would, I'm just expressing my anger lol. I'm definitely gonna post a lost and found ad on Craigslist, and mall security said someone could turn it in later (especially if maintenance picked it up).

      No one said you were.... nobody should have taken it either...

      I'm catching the nostalgia train next weekend with my peeps. There is going to be a shitload of people today especially because its the 1st one

  22. Got a lot of shopping done today up in Paramus. Went to Bergen Town Center then Garden State Plaza, got stuff for myself and to sell on eBay.

  23. Went around today, rode a PATH Newark-33 train with no automated announcements, a NY Waterway ferry shuttle AmTran school bus with suburban seats, stop request cords, and a rear door, plus the R42 (C) to 2nd Avenue.

      No lol, but the guy who makes those station announcements (like the Stay Alert. Be Aware. Speak Up. BS) really sounds like that.
