Hi there!  Thanks for stopping by.
Public transportation user since 1983.
Home base is the city of Buffalo, New York, however, I do associate myself with the Golden Horseshoe (Niagara Falls to Toronto), the Anthracite region of Pennsylvania (Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Shenandoah, Hazleton, and Mt Carmel), the Capital Region of Pennsylvania (Harrisburg, Gettysburg, Lancaster, York, Reading) and the Finger Lakes region of New York (Rochester, Ithaca, Elmira, Corning).  Also, I've been working on a few midwest United States agencies that are lacking a lot of information, especially past fleets.  Agencies include [[Wichita Transit]], [[Johnson County Transit]] (the JO), and a few others.
Another project has me working on a number of past agencies, including as many streetcar, trolley bus and conventional transit coaches as I can find.  The areas covered include New York and Pennsylvania.
I'm working heavily on the [[Pittsburgh Railways Company]], and am setting up to tackle other agencies that also were amalgamated into today's [[Port Authority of Allegheny County]].  I'm finding the Pittsburgh history quite interesting, especially when compared to the [[International Railway Company (NY/ON)]] and [[Niagara Frontier Transit System]] segue into today's [[Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority]].

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by.

Public transportation user since 1983.

Home base is the city of Buffalo, New York, however, I do associate myself with the Golden Horseshoe (Niagara Falls to Toronto), the Anthracite region of Pennsylvania (Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Shenandoah, Hazleton, and Mt Carmel), the Capital Region of Pennsylvania (Harrisburg, Gettysburg, Lancaster, York, Reading) and the Finger Lakes region of New York (Rochester, Ithaca, Elmira, Corning). Also, I've been working on a few midwest United States agencies that are lacking a lot of information, especially past fleets. Agencies include Wichita Transit, Johnson County Transit (the JO), and a few others.

Another project has me working on a number of past agencies, including as many streetcar, trolley bus and conventional transit coaches as I can find. The areas covered include New York and Pennsylvania.

I'm working heavily on the Pittsburgh Railways Company, and am setting up to tackle other agencies that also were amalgamated into today's Port Authority of Allegheny County. I'm finding the Pittsburgh history quite interesting, especially when compared to the International Railway Company (NY/ON) and Niagara Frontier Transit System segue into today's Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority.

Outstanding projects

  • Continuous work on Ford Motor Company VINs for cutaway buses. Work includes scouring individual agencies for VIN numbers on fleet pages.
  • National Parks Service shuttle fleet pages.
  • Expanding information on Memphis Area Transit Authority and Wichita Transit, when additional information becomes available. For the time being, I'm caught up, but will update if I see other ways to improve the articles.
  • Updating infoboxes for a number of agencies that I'm familiar working with, or lack them. Agencies with new infoboxes include Memphis Area Transit Authority, Luzerne County Transportation Authority and Cambria County Transit Authority.
  • Recently fixed coding on "Reference" sections with <references> keyed instead of <references/> (much of it my own doing).
  • British and United Kingdom properties, slowly being added when I can get information available.
  • New York state school districts, slowly adding many districts all-time rosters.

Also, I have been making sure that agencies get the proper addition to listed categories, when necessary. Some category lists such as Category:New York transit agencies and Category:Defunct New York transit agencies are excellent tools, especially when you may not have the correct name of an agency inserted in a search string.

Airlines that I have flown (and routes)

Things I'd like to see (transportation-wise) in my lifetime

  • Buffalo/Niagara region: creation of 24-hour service on at least routes 4, 5, 8, 12/13, 20, 23, 24, 40.
  • Buffalo/Niagara region: ability to connect NFTA-Metro with the Canadian systems GO Transit, Fort Erie Transit, and Niagara Falls Transit.
  • Niagara region: fold Niagara Region Transit into GO Transit, offer similar service patterns, and add Sunday service.
  • Niagara region: expand PRESTO Card into the Niagara region agencies.
  • Buffalo/Rochester area: find ways of linking NFTA with RTS-Genesee, RTS-Wyoming.
  • Buffalo/Niagara: see a "Presto" style transit card implemented (it's coming, believe it or not!)
  • Buffalo/Niagara: see a commuter-rail system set up between Buffalo and Niagara Falls, Lockport (new build), Depew-Lancaster-Townline-Alden-Batavia and Attica, West Seneca-East Aurora.
  • Buffalo/Niagara: see a limited-stop route created between University Station and Downtown Niagara Falls or Niagara Transit Center, using Niagara Falls Blvd.
  • Buffalo/Niagara: more frequent service on heavily traveled routes. Fifteen minute intervals may be improved to every ten minutes or better? Specifically directed at routes 5, 20, 23, among others.
  • Buffalo/Niagara: see completion of the North Campus extension (in some form) to the Metro Rail line. In addition, I'd also like to see expansions to the rail system on an Airport line, a Tonawandas line (through to Niagara Falls), a Niagara Falls tourist trolley line, and a Southtowns line through the waterfront. A belt line from Buffalo State College or Delaware Consumer Square through to the east side of Buffalo would tie most of the services together.
