4397 on the S2 near 16th and Buchanan. Between that and the D40LFR on the 70, I think Montgomery is helping Northern out.

Wmata employee did say Montgomery does the 70 along with Northern during the morning rush hour. I think he said just 2 runs  though. That was probably one of the runs you saw.
Blue Line Shuttle to Franconia-Springfield.



Want me to make a destination sign for you? Just send me a PM and I'll have it made in no time.

What express shuttle?

Why ask daily where 6110 and 9307 are?  Didn't you ask and get an answer last week?

Metrobus 4205 had destination signs that went "EXPRESS" &  then "SHUTTLE"; no route number, no destination, nothing else.  Just "EXPRESS" & then "SHUTTLE."

If u see bus signs that read 38856 there is a bug in the comuter device and techs are tryin to repair it asap. There has been a report of numerous amount of buses with that ERROR.
