Talk:Rochester-Genesee Regional Transit Service

Also, I felt the need to remove the line about monitors. Those are not currently present and haven't been for some time. According to CEO Mark Aesch, speaking at a town hall meeting on October 27th, a new monitor in the shelters system launch will coincide with implementation of a public bus tracking internet application using GPS. This is expected to occur next summer (2009).<-> —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.69.65.197 (talk) 00:24, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

The line about the "lineup" is only partially correct. The true lineup only occurs late at night and on weekends. <-> —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.69.65.197 (talk) 00:18, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

This does not seem to be accurate information:

In early 2008, the Rochester Transit Light Rail System (RTLRS) was opened, marking the first light rail system to be installed since the first Rochester subway in the early twentieth century.

Light Rail

Rochester is New York State's latest city to have a commuter light rail system installed. The Rochester Transit Light Rail System (RTLRS), as it is officially known as, opened with service to 12 vital points in the City of Rochester, and stops in 10 central suburban towns in Monroe County. The transit system also serves four colleges in the metro area.

Fleet

I noticed that the fleet list has finally been updated [as of September 2009], though I noticed that the 35x-series of articulated buses isn't mentioned. All I know is that they are Neoplan AN460s, which isn't really sufficent information for the list. Anybody know details? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.142.191.152 (talk) 00:24, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

Spring cleaning?
I'm looking at a number of articles based on public transportation in New York State and am questioning a number of additions made to the articles.

I'm noting a couple things that I'll be changing over the weekend and am defending my decision in this section:


 * Trivial additions: though I commend each of you that have been willing to supply Wikipedia with knowledge (verifiable through proper referencing), some of the additions are trivial, if that.  Mentioning that seating cushions have been changed on a certain series of bus seats doesn't really add substance to the article.


 * Routes: the previous layout was confusing on so many levels.  A simple bulleted list or a separate page (more ideal) allows the page to be freed of things that a casual reader may be less likely to wade through.


 * Merging with RGRTA page: once enough changes are made to make this article more reader friendly, I'd like to see the page merged into the RGRTA article, with a redirect in place for "Regional Transit Service" to the RGRTA article.  I believe the NFTA article works properly, but minor I also feel tweaking will need to occur there too.

If you have rebuttals about some of these changes, please post either on here, or my talk page.

Many of the New York State public transportation articles carry notes of their need for improvement, Spring may be a proper time to clean of these articles.
