Service Change: New York, Part 1 – B11 (Between Flatbush and Brooklyn Army Terminal)

Service Change: New York, Part 1 – B11 (Between Flatbush and Brooklyn Army Terminal)

Going crosstown in New York is always hellish. It doesn’t matter if you’re in Manhattan, the Bronx, or, in the case of the B11, Brooklyn – it’s always going to be incredibly slow. At least the B11 had some nice scenery to watch while constantly...

Service Change: Italy, Part 5 – Transportation in Rome

Hooray! A city where we actually got to take a bus! However, it didn’t exactly go as planned. Before we get to that, though, here are some pictures of other buses I saw that I didn’t ride. Wow, that’s a tight fit. And so is that. That bus is so cute!...
Service Change: Italy, Part 2 – (Water) Buses in Venice

Service Change: Italy, Part 2 – (Water) Buses in Venice

by Miles Taylor | Feb 27, 2016 | Miles on the MBTA

I really wanted to take a water bus in Venice. In fact, during a period of free time, a few friends and I were going to take it a single stop, just for the sake of riding one. But when we got to the station, I asked the woman at the ticket booth how much it would cost...
