It's done every Sunday in December. Around late November of each year you can google search "vintage subways NYC December (year)" and you'll get the specific schedule of when the trains will be at their ending stops (Queens Blvd stop and 2nd Ave stop). Check it out, it's worth waiting around in a subway station for them
I don't think Youngstown's Western Reserve Transit Authority has any vintage buses. I heard that some guy bought them because he wanted to use the diesel engines for his charter boats. Apparently, the engines in those buses lasted virtually forever.
For awhile, they had one of those bus/trolley contraptions (something like this: Gillig Corporation) but they sold it to a neighboring city.
Well, perhaps it's because your cities most dated subway trains are barely 30 years old?
Daily ridership of your cities transit is presently ranked at 8th in the U.S. It obviously works for hundreds of thousands of people, including me!
Exactly...it works for me too. Some people don't want it to work...they like to complain about public transportation - yet they don't and never will use it.
