  1. Same way you scan tickets. All you gotta do is input zone of travel and money is deducted from their account
  2. Starting today, NJT is allowing Debit/Credit cards to be scanned on (of all lines) the 161
  3. I was actually wondering if there are multiple depots that have their hands on one bus line the same way NJT has most all their depots run the 126
  4. Even though it’s been mentioned enough times it’s still a shocker. It seems NJT will be taking private operations the same way MTA did with the NYC Private ops
  5. Sunday night I was operating the 194 to Newfoundland and as I was leaving Wayne Transit Center, noticed ALP44 4424 in between GP40PH-2 unit 4111 and what looked to be a CNJ Museum piece. Later on, as it turned out, 4424 was headed to the URHS of New Jersey in Boonton where they have an NJT E8 and an E60CP
  6. My garage (Wayne) got asked to do those trippers. Too bad I had a straight shift to work
  7. I saw an attempt at a system map on Transee that confirms your point. Yuck
  8. DeCamp buses went quick out of Meadowlands. Think I saw 3 left. Also saw some at their old garage in Montclair as I passed by on the Montclair-Boonton Line going to Newark
  9. I spent Memorial Day hunting for the MN 208 unit. Found it on the first try at Grand Central, then took a trip on the Hudson Line to Tarrytown to get a photo op (since it looked as if it wasn’t going anywhere anytime soon from GCT). Well as my train pulls into Irvington, 208 comes flying past and I’m cursing my cursed luck in front of a live studio audience 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤦‍♂️
  10. Didn’t it use to be that when you signed on to the register, the clever device turned on with it?
  11. @checkmatechamp13 I think that’s exactly where she let me off and I didn’t know at the time I was near to an NJT colleague that lived near Belleville Ave. I would’ve hit him up to ask for a couch nap for the night. @B35 via Church before I get to 2, a quick note that the op of the 72 that I barely caught much to my shock and awe was a former co worker from Lakeland. So we caught up with each other as he works from Market Street and I’m out of Wayne. Now to 2, the operator knew me and believe it or not I was going to go through the trouble of riding that whole 190 on a round trip before we went back to the garage, but the problem was that MCI would give one of the worst mule kicks ever when it would accelerate and I finally had to get off not long after leaving Grand Street in Paterson (at night 😖) and the op of the Paterson bound bus took me back after finishing.
  12. You went for the ride, lol. Did you ever have any hang ups to where you were a hairsbreadth away from being stranded? Case in point: on my day off I parked my car at Wayne Depot and rode into the city on the 192. Wanted to try out the 119 with the New Flyer Xcelsiors. From Bayonne I got the 10 and rode to JSQ where I got the Path to Newark. From there I wanted to get the 11 to Willowbrook to the 198 and get off at the depot entrance. Well I got on the wrong side of Penn Station and miss the 11. Ok no problem, I’ll take the 28 up to Willowbrook (unsure if even went that far at that point of the evening). Well 28 only went to MSU. Ok no problem. I’ll get the MOBO at nearby Montclair Heights and ride to Route 23 Transit Center. Get to MSU, and I’m waiting longer than I’m supposed to. Then I get word due to a fire in Glen Ridge, the MOBO was 50 minutes late while one of the trains from New York was cancelled. Ok no problem The last 28 to Newark is leaving MSU. I’ll use that to the 72 to Paterson and catch a deadhead (161 or 190) back to the depot. I specifically told b/o I want to catch the 72. She puts me off a full mile where I actually want to go. Cue a nice 45 minute adventure on foot down Bloomfield Av (with a few brisk sprints mixed in and a shortcut down Belleville Ave) and I was able to catch that last 72 to Paterson with 4 minutes to spare. Caught a 190 dh back to Wayne depot to end one of the more chaotic trips ever 🤦‍♂️
  13. I’d like to see signs for R68 Ditmars Boulevard-Astoria Queens Coney Island Brooklyn thanks
  14. Sorry I meant the Alps Road stop on Paterson-Hamburg Turnpike. And for the 748 to Pompton Lakes via Pat-Ham during the rush hour.
  15. Alps Road is still closed in both directions on the 197/748.
  16. Thanks Ben. Do you do the outside sign for the R62? If so could you do that as well? Thanks
  17. Hey Ben I’d like to see a throwback in R62 format Woodlawn-Jerome Av,Bronx Utica Avenue, Brooklyn thanks Dover
  18. Hi Ben. Could you do a set of Transfer signs with the yellow sign and black lettering please? Transfer : Transfer: (brownM) Thanks Dover
