Presumably for other, perhaps all, bus lines as well. (I think        it was when I asked for the map of the bus line that would show me where        the stops are.)              Such info has been available for subways for years, because long ago        the GCT branch of the Transit Museum had on display an artwork that        turned train position info on every line into glowing dots and musical        tones. I wrote down the url -- and it worked on my computer. Unfortunately        I lost the bookmark when the computer died.               So maybe the subway line maps now show real-time locations!              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
