Sure, There might be multiple answers, but the author of these types of riddles choose what the answer is. So you get to choose whichever answer you want. That's rather vulnerable to bias... Anyway. If it's not the or , I'll say Rerouted to replace another route late nights. Has different terminals on weekdays and weekends. But seriously, this isn't really a fun riddle - there are infinitely many answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seriously, this isn't really a fun riddle - there are infinitely many answers. Nope and Nope. Out of the two of you, one of you has the correct route, but wrong explanationAlso, you can ask for hints Up to three hints will be given.

Brighton Express Posted May 14, 2012 Share #668 Posted May 14, 2012 I'd guess , never ran NTTs during regular, non-GO-related service. You are right about that. The only time the had R160s is when they had the GO last year. But it may have had an R110B on it, maybe even more than 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lance Posted May 14, 2012 Share #673 Posted May 14, 2012 No one's threatening to close this thread. As long as you guys keep the discourse civil, I really don't care. Just a suggestion though: try to make your riddles have one definite answer. I understand that can't be helped sometimes as some riddles will have multiple answers, but just try. Also, I think you should 86 some of these "rules" here as too many rules make this whole thing less fun and engaging for everyone involved. Again, this is just a suggestion. You can do whatever you feel like with this, as long as you follow the forum rules. Carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
