    Not sure if this has been answered anywhere but does anyone know why the 128 uses buses from Howell? It just seems weird for a relatively short route out of PABT to use buses from a garage 60 miles away. Maybe Howell buses running to PABT (e.g. 139) switch to 128 after arriving at PABT? Or maybe they want CNG buses on the 128? Always wondered this as none of the other routes local to the Hudson county area use buses from Howell.

    Well the 128 is a busy bus line so it does need the help, and it wouldn’t make sense for the 130-9 routes to just come up from south jersey to turn around and go back. So while they’re up in the NYC area they go and help on the 128. For example, the AM rush, a bus would come into PABT on the 139, deadhead to the start of the 128 and help on the 128. Then go back to the garage or Weehawken lot. (Correct me if I’m wrong)

    The 355 Isn’t assigned to Wayne Township Garage  the 355 is assigned to Meadowlands Garage and 355/356 Ironbound Garage I don’t understand why Oradell Garage didn’t get any of that work being that it’s in Bergen County where the mall is located the union isn’t doing right by personnel 

    I think Oradell got called to do the work but they didn’t do it for some reason. Either way Oradell can’t handle anymore work they can barely handle their own lines.

    Sadly, no. It was an MCI though and only knew when to get off thanks to the automated announcement system. I was planning a little fantrip, I'll probably take the train from NYC to Newark and just take the 76 from NWK Penn to Hackensack since I never been on the 76 before and already rode both Hackensack - GWB routes. Then take the NJT route 83 to Journal Square and take PATH back to NY.

    Oh ok cool!

    Do any of the PABT - Hackensack routes actually stop inside the Hackensack bus terminal? I remember I rode an route out of PA that that went to Hackensack but didn't stop at the terminal.

    The NJT bus route 168 stops in the back not to far away from the bus terminal when going towards Hackensack. When heading to NY it stops right in front of the terminal. Do you remember the route# you took?
