Buzz2kb Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hi! Due to the imminent cessation of Picasa services, I've decided to create a Flickr gallery of all my transit pictures taken over the past decade. Featured so far are mostly pictures taken throughout the Southeastern US from 2009 onward, but more uploads back from my Florida days to come! Address is https://www.flickr.com/photos/transitfanunlimited/ Hope that you'll enjoy my vast treasure trove! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz2kb Posted July 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 To those unfamiliar with how I name my transit pictures, here is a generic template of the filenames of most of them: WWW-rXXX-YYY-Z WWW is my abbreviation of the operating transit agency, rXXX refers to the route number, where XXX can vary between 1 to 3 digits (1 digit for agencies operating up to route number 9 like Albany (Georgia), 2 digits for those operating up to route 99 like Corpus Christi (Texas) and 3 digits for those operating routes 100 or above like VIA Metropolitan Transit, I name single digit routes with agencies of the 2nd category as r0x, and those with the last category as r00x. Double-digit routes with agencies of the 3rd category as r0xx). Route suffix letters may also be present. Exceptions to the above route numbering schemes are agencies using a NYC-style alpha-numeric combo of route names like former system in Jacksonville, Florida or those using only route letters or names like Murfreesboro Rover in suburban Nashville. I use the entire alpha-numeric combo in the former case , and either full or abbreviated route names in the latter case. For WMATA Metrobus in greater Washington DC, I also add the state codes DC, MD and VA before the route numbers to distinguish between the DC, Maryland and Virginia division routes. For DC routes without a letter prefix and all Virginia routes, I simply use the route number without the usual r prefix to avoid confusion with R-prefixed DC routes. I skip the route number/name part for vehicles pictured whlie not in service. YYY refers to the fleet number of the vehicle pictured. It can vary between 1 to 5 digits like the bus side of Dallas DART. Whenever there is more than 1 picture of the same vehicle/route combo, the Z part of the template refers to the individual picture number. Hope that this explainer can help future viewers of my vast collection! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz2kb Posted September 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 September 16 Update (Likely to be my final September update): Added 15 photos to Memphis Area Transit Authority bus gallery. Highlights: 2 more 21700-series of 2017 Gillig Low Floor's pictured in service, including wrapped bus 21709. MATA is finally using 3-digit route numbers on its express routes, which are designated as Xyy0 in my gallery; where yy is the parent daytime route . For instance, route 340 Walnut Grove Express is derived from route 34 Walnut Grove, while route 400 Wolfchase Express is the route 40 Wolfchase express trip spun off to become its own route. However, route 280 Airways Express only vaguely follow the route 28 Holmes south of Airways Transit Center and shares the same southern end-of-line (IRS Service Center). Pictured all the weekdays only routes from the August 2017 service change, including pilot route 31 Firestone (segment of the old route 31 Crosstown). It is run with a 29ft. Gillig Low Floor diesel bus built to MATA Plus (paratransit) specification with no bike rack when I spotted the route yesterday. This is likely to be my last update on MATA's bus operations for a while unless further new routes come up in future service changes. Added 37 photos to Oxford University Transit (Oxford, Mississippi) gallery. Highlights: All secondhand heavy-duty buses I've spotted (including ex-Foothill Transit Gillig Low Floor's 2015-2016, ex-Charlotte NovaBus LFS's 2017-2018 and baby Gillig BRT 1529 from the same source) are now wrapped in navy blue. So the liveries from their former owners are apparently history there! (I did not see LFS bus 2019 yesterday). All dual-door Freightliner/Glaval Apollo medium-duty buses I've spotted are wrapped in navy blue as well (So formerly white 1420 and 1425 are now navy blue. I am unable to confirm the livery status of bus 1424, as I did not spot it in service yesterday) The new 40ft. Gillig Low Floor's are finally here, they are numbered 1730 and 1731. Both are deployed on the Bronze (formerly Brown) Park and Ride route from the old Oxford Mall. The campus circulator routes are there as well. They are called Rebel Red and Rebel Blue and use the Freightliner/Glaval Apollo's displaced from the Bronze route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
