I rode NABI's on the 104 back and forth from West Chester. On my trip home to West Chester, the driver did everything he could to observe the time points and we still we "hot " by 4 -5 minutes at time at most points. I guess it was because traffic was extremely light on West Chester Pike for this 2:35 PM departure. I must have missed an early leave for the 2:05 WC trip, because it was gone by 2:04 when I ran up there. I saw a bus loading and I thought that was it, but when I got inside, it was a 112, I got off quickly. The next bus at 2:20 was a Newtown Square, signed up for West Chester by error. The guy on the platform was yelling his lungs out that this NOT a WC bus. Finally the driver changed the sign to Newtown Square. Don't those drivers have time to properly set the signs or something at 69th Street? Chuck Greene |

Yay - I got 3440 today, and sat in the last seat in front of the rear door - which is actually a single seat. i spotted 5251 not in service hanging around Southern today - I guess it will be there for the time being. It acutally was driven out of the depot, then down 20th Street and into the main entrance of the depot. Saw a hybrid 5608H on the 71! I also saw an El Dorado in South philly not far from Broad and Pattison. It actually made a U-turn back Northbound on broad - I wonder what it was doing all the way down there! |

There were 4 car trains on the MFL today - threw me off at 69th Street going down the stairs - I thought the tracks were empty at first! On Thursday, a newer driver went over a speed hump at Willow Grove Mall a little too fast in 4503. It was hilarious, that bus bounced so hard I swear we caught a little air! Ah, the Dorados are certainly fun :). |

(There were 4 car trains on the MFL today - threw me off at 69th Street going down the stairs - I thought the tracks were empty at first!) They have been doing that on weekends to save money? (On Thursday, a newer driver went over a speed hump at Willow Grove Mall a little too fast in 4503. It was hilarious, that bus bounced so hard I swear we caught a little air! Ah, the Dorados are certainly fun ) The El Dorado is the "bouncy bus" to me anyway. I can imagine what that bump did to it! |
