Universal Cereal Bus is the best bus (once you figure out which way to plug it in)

hello again,

I'm sorry I've been away. A few weeks ago I found myself exploring the bus maintenance yard of the CTA and PACE quality transit establishments. It was quite something, I must say. I learned so much about how to maintain a bus. Unfortunately, the staff did not appreciate it when they found me caressing their legacy buses. I tried explaining that it was a consensual appreciation of beautiful American mechanics but they pointed out that my pants were down and this was unacceptable. They weren't interested in hearing that I had recently lost weight and as such my trousers no longer fit properly. As a result I found myself in bus jail for a stint. I asked for a lawyer repeatedly but I don't think anyone was listening.

Upon my release I took a walkabout around the Loop to enjoy the new mini-terminals they've built in the thoroughfares. These are quite nifty! Instead of improving traffic flow with an overhauled traffic management apparatus they have narrowed several busy streets to put in stalls where the major buses can pull in and pick up passengers. Unfortunately, I again lost control of my trousers and was very impolitely removed from touching the fine architecture of these new terminals while also moaning loudly. This time I didn't go to Bus Jail but was simply escorted home. Turns out I was no longer welcome in my mother's house so I took some clothes and my more precious 1:44 scale replica buses and set out to make a new life for myself.

Since then I've been sleeping at the Jefferson Park bus terminal and I couldn't be happier.

So, fellow bus posters, what are some of the cooler bus terminals you've seen?

Every man likes a pretty girl with him at a skeleton dance.
I'm partial to the Toronto Go system of train and bus terminals. I find them to be exceedingly great examples of design by committee blandness.

It's your own bloody fault.
It's not a funny enough gimmick to resurrect, let the thread die.

It's a gimmick, but busses are cool. We should have a bus thread.

We have a bus thread and it's this one unless you think you can do better.

Tinal, I do not want to go to Bus Jail again.

What would be a good bus to get a tattoo of?
