I think when they meant Express Buses, using the MTA term, since all their MCIs and Prevost buses are called Express Bus. But yeah they said more bus runs starting from 60th on Blvd East on the 128, since the other 165, 166, 168 buses that make it to 60th St are standing room only

I thought Newton Ave can't fit all the 45 footer Cruisers and the turns on the 409 are too tight for them?

They were building a second track from Farmingdale to Ronkonoma

Some old MCIs were sent back to South Jersey to operate the Rt 340 shuttles during the AC rail line shutdown

Has anyone been taking NJT bus or rail to Meadowlands to bet on football today in the racetrack's sportsbook?

NJ Transit plans to shut down the Atlantic City Line for five months starting Sept. 4 and redeploy its personnel and equipment to deal with shortages of both elsewhere in the state. The plan, which was described in an internal email obtained by the USA TODAY NETWORK New Jersey, shows the struggles of the statewide public transportation system. https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/transportation/2018/08/03/nj-transit-atlantic-city-line-shut-down-5-months/899063002/ They also plan to end the off-peak one seat rides to/from NY Penn on the Raritan Valley Line Official Press Release

Caug I checked the GTFS this week on the summer bus schedule and found there will be 4 Newton Ave, 2 Egg Harbor, 1 Washington Twp drivers for the 316 Majority of the 316 trips would be the older MCI D4000s from Newton Ave. Newton Ave trip times are 8:30am, 9:30am, 3:30pm, 7:30pm from Philly. We could see 2 Newton Ave MCI cruisers at a time on the 316

http://www.theintell.com/news/20180218/project-to-connect-i-95-pa-turnpike-nears-major-milestone/1 I wonder if this will mean Greyhound, some Bolt Buses, and Megabuses will no longer travel through BFB, NJ 38, NJ 73 to Turnpike Exit 4 between Philly-NYC
