Joel Up Front Posted March 29, 2011 Share #2853 Posted March 29, 2011 Thank you! It is hard to figure out whats a Nassau bus and whats a Queens bus along Hillside Av... That is until the N6 goes flying by at 45 right past you, as you flail your arms wildly... At least five things wrong with that. 1) Forty-five? Miles an hour? On Hillside Avenue? laughingelfman.jpg 2) LIB operators wish they could do 45. Wait, I was just on the N51 and the B/O DID about 45 for a good 20 seconds. Fun ride. 3) Bus models? Destination signs? That not good enough for you if the NGs are all white with a blue stripe? 4) Okay, I ran out of things. 5) You just lost the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EE Broadway Local Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share #2855 Posted March 29, 2011 Welcome to the revised NYCTF Off Topic Lounge Random Thoughts Thread! On a friendly suggestion, I created a new Random Thoughts thread for Subways and for Buses in their respective forums. Please continue to feel free to post anything off topic which doesn't really require a seperate thread - sports, movies, television, radio, games, life, etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Up Front Posted March 30, 2011 Share #2856 Posted March 30, 2011 An old MSBA operator on SubChat said those Gilligs were deathtraps and had power steering that was too sensitive. Why did they take the cool "Phantom" name? Is it a reference to how like its safety, phantoms aren't real? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel Up Front Posted March 30, 2011 Share #2859 Posted March 30, 2011 Ah, these were great memories, driving down a small-scale version of Manhattan in this game from 1999. Reminds me of the camera zooming down various side streets until it got to your car, on a dark and rainy night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJC Posted March 30, 2011 Share #2863 Posted March 30, 2011 After a long night of studying, I took the Q44 home. I got on around 12:30 AM. As we passed the Van Wyck Expressway, a passenger decided to show me what he had for dinner. Needless to say, I quickly got off. I had to wait 20 minutes in the freezing cold for the next bus. The other passengers remained on the bus. I guess they were so tired that they were oblivious to the stench. it was that bad? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
