Yeah, I understand what you're saying. But the RF terminal has worked for years and NCC would have to do a lot of renovation to fit a bus terminal.

I don't know about that. Roosevelt Field is a very convenient terminal for riders, and its actually the reason I first rode Long Island Bus. The connection to shopping, to food, and the connection to other routes is a great reason to take the bus to the mall. However, a rebuilding of the terminal at the mall would not be a bad idea. I know of some ideas to rebuild the terminal there and add some better shelters as well as maybe a waiting room or bathrooms. However, I doubt anyone would pay for it.

I think Hempstead Terminal is property but they allow NICE to use it. However, the hires Summit Security services to watch the place and they're complete a**holes to photographers.

Yet every time I try to record videos in Hempstead Terminal, security acts like a bitch to me.

1732 has been painted and has had the blue stripe removed (previously, it was wrapped with the stripe still on). Here's video (not mine):

They finally put a bench at the westbound Q12/N20/N21 bus stop at Northern Blvd & Douglaston Pkwy. I don't think its an or a DOT bench though, because it looks different. There's still no bus shelter either.

Did you see any graffiti on it?

Why does almost every RTS I see on the Q30 say Bus? Where is Jamaica getting all these RTSes from?

The signs are so much bigger than the Long Island Bus signs. I hope they auction off the old LIB signs.

Some people say that the old Clever Device systems worked on wheel rotation but I still don't think so. I think they all work on GPS, but the systems are broken and need to be fixed with lagging issues. Some new NICE bus stops have been up for some time now, at Walt Whitman Mall and Rockville Centre LIRR. They look just like the template.

I heard a great song on the radio today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnD6ojjA0OA

Well, you're right to wanna go to Roosevelt Field. You'll get a lot of NICE there. If you're really feeling adventurous, you can take a quick 10 minute ride (you have many ways to make the connection) to Hempstead Transit Center and see even more!

LOL, it may not be intentional. The air power on the rear doors may be giving out. Something else to fix...

Several trips end at Mineola Ave everyday!

Look at half the crap other people tag "official" on this forum, then think about that. I made this "official" so other people wouldn't create more threads about interlines at NICE. There are tons of threads on this forum that are mislabeled with the tag.

So you're saying the 6:05 pm N20 out of Flushing to Roslyn heads down to Roslyn LIRR station at the end of its route, and does the n27 to Glen Cove from there? I would believe that because I've seen NICE buses make that right before onto Mineola Ave and probably head down to Roslyn LIRR. That doesn't make much sense because there is no connection between Roslyn and Hicksville or Great Neck and Roslyn.

They should just give a call to Clever Devices and work out some deal. C'mon, they're in the same county!

Couple of days in my experience, they're pretty on top of things when it comes to just sending you schedules and maps. I had no problem.

See, good thing you did the research because I hate looking up politics.

It would be good for bus service if the County gets a Democrat in office, but its gonna be hard to get him voted into office again given the rich like Mango.

Well the n20 shelter at Hicksville is in front of a dirty parking lot and isn't on LIRR property, so I guess nobody sees the need to clear it.

Well, its too bad she lives on the n21 route. You could tell her to either 1) get a car or 2) find more people to ride the n21 daily. About 20 people on a bus doesn't mean much when the bus can fit more than 40 people. Especially considering past Roslyn, during the day (here I go repeating myself again), the n21 ran empty. I see no reason to restore it. Her complaining isn't going to fix the situation.

Found these old photos online today. They're by NIMBYKiller (who is on Subchat, I think): LINK: http://jmpix.webs.com/buspix.htm

Is it only one bus? I guess I saw the same bus multiple times the same day lol. I'll tell you if I see it again. I didn't catch the numbers.
