Hello, does anyone know any other mass transit forums or eisenbahnforum from other cities where you can exchange? I have only found the New York Transit Forum

Hello, I am interested in the history of bus transport in the 1970/1980/1990s. I am especially interested in the passenger information from that time My question: before there were automatic stop announcements on the buses, did the bus drivers announce the stops? Does anyone know how it was in the 1970/1980/1990s?

Can someone tell me something about this topic

Hello, it's me, Marc. I have a question and would appreciate if you could help me. I was told that you are the right people to contact. It's about the history of bus transportation in the US more specifically about bus stop announcements and displays on buses My first question is: How long have automatic bus stop announcements and displays been around? Before there were automatic bus stop announcements and displays on buses,( 1970/1980/1990 he has) did bus drivers have to call out the stops into the microphone? Did bus drivers really do that when they had to announce the stops themselves? What was it like in the U.S.? What was it like in your city Are there people in the forum who experienced this period and often rode the buses.

Can anyone tell me anything else about the bus stop announcements of the past ? Did anyone remember how the bus drivers announced the stops in the 1980s, for example ? or can someone answer my unanswered questions? many greetings marc

, Hello, it's Marc I have a question and would appreciate if you could help me. I was told that you are the right people to talk to. It's about the history of bus service in New Jersey, more specifically bus stop announcements and displays. I had a conversation with an acquaintance about bus stop announcements and displays in the 1980s and 1990s/2000s. I will also be doing a paper in class on this topic (public transportation). My first question is, when did automatic bus stop announcements and displays start? Before there were automatic stop announcements and displays on buses, did bus drivers have to call out the stops into the microphone? Did bus drivers really do that when they had to announce the stops themselves? What was it like in New Jersey . Are there any of you bus drivers or other people who have ridden the bus a lot since that time (1970) but especially 1980/1990s and also in the 2000s and know what it was like in reality or experienced it yourself? And how is it today, when the automatic stop announcements and displays fail, do the bus drivers also announce the stops over the microphone? I look forward to your answer With kind regards

Hello Q43LTD, thank you for your interesting message. Have you been a frequent passenger on the New York buses? How high would you estimate the rate of bus drivers who always announced the stops over the microphone? More like 50 percent or 80 percent? Did that work well? Did you also experience the 1980 /1990s? Were in the 1980 already the stops announced by the bus driver? Are there perhaps videos in which you can see how the bus driver announce the stops over the microphone? I am happy to receive more information Many greetings Marc

Hello, thank you for your interesting news. I still have a few questions if I may. Can someone also tell me how it was in the 1970 and 1980s? Were in the 1970 and 1980 er years also already the stops announced by the driver or only from 1990 ? Can anyone tell me? To P3F: how high would you estimate the quota of the drivers (percentage) who kept to announcing the most important stops from yerars 2000 to 2010? Rather 50 percent or 80 percent? To: Sospectacular : You said that only the most important stops are announced, this is also consistently implemented by the drivers? How many of the 120 stops are announced by the bus drivers? Or do many not do it? Are there no complaints when drivers don't announce the stops? Have you both been frequent ferry passengers on the New York buses I look forward to more information Regards Marc
