The direct ride from the downtown clinic on Harrison Street, SoMa to the Fort Miley hospital on Clement Street, San Francisco.
As photographed at one of the vista points west of the main Visitors' Center. The park also operates “Blue Route” and “Red Route” shuttles. All run frequently from early morning to sunset, and look about the same; the headsigns tell you which is which.

Tim's Grand Canyon visiting tips:
* Come early.
* Leave your wheels in a parking spot that will be a cinch to find at 8:00 a.m. and a bear to find at noon.
* Rely on Grand Canyon shuttles to navigate the South Rim labyrinth til days' end.
Shuttle B01 from Hong Kong airport. It took us right to Stanford Hotel in Mong Kok where we stayed. Very comfy seats, never seen seats like that on the bus, they call it a limousine. Cost HK100 if you mention discount, otherwise HK140. We learnt about the discount at the information desk on the way out from the customs area. The arrival section of the Hong Kong airport looks old with scruffy smelly dusty curpets. Once out of customs the builidng is new and shiny.

Johnna Parr delivered the last talk of the convention before Saturday Night Gala. I wanted to stay for the final words which put us in the huge throng of people vying for a spot on the shuttle bus from the convention center back to the Westin and Hyatt hotels. We sat in seats facing each other--the kind like trains in England. I took advantage of the big window and snapped photos as we rode through Kansas City, Missouri.
At Merlefest you park at the old Wilkesboro Airport and catch a shuttle bus to Merlefest. It drops you off right at the gate so there is no walking involved. They run consistently so that there is not a wait. However when you leave after the main act plays on Saturday Night everyone leaves at the same time and there is a wait going back.
Sedona, Arizona - December 17, 2023: Bus stop for the Sedona Shuttlebus to the trailheads during busy times
This is a 2011 Ford E450 Cutaway Chassis with a Supreme StarTrans Senator 14 passenger Shuttlebus with power wheelchair lift.
From Colson Whitehead's novel Apex Hides the Hurt:
"Never mind the initial mental image of the ungainly vehicle, and its battle between intimacy and utility--a shuttle bus approaches grace on the asphalt of humility, he insisted. Inevitably, his colleagues shook their heads when he got to that part, but he never wavered. As perfect containers of that moment between anticipation and event, as roving four-wheeled or six-wheeled conveyances of hope, shuttle buses cannot be blamed if the destination disappoints, if desire is counterfeited, if after all that dreaming all we have to show are ashes. Shuttle buses, at worst, were unwitting accomplices. Being a shuttle bus, he argued, meant never having to say you were sorry. He always expected applause when he finished."
The route number 90 was not actually used for this service. Renown took it on for a while after the previous operator Countryliner went bust. Taken on 8th December 2012.
On Monday, Jim and I drove from The Desmond Hotel in Albany, New York to the Adirondack Mountains. Our first sightseeing opportunity was Prospect Mountain--very close to Lake George Village. It's supposed to be high enough for a 100 mile view. Unfortunately, it was very hazy the day that we drove up the mountain.
This was the last stop where you could drive a car. There was a lot of parking space--two levels; so, I feel that this is a popular tourist spot in the summertime. Beyond this point, a shuttle runs every 8 minutes to take you to the summit. The shuttle shows a video to the passengers about the history of the area.
