Purple Bus Route Change?

[ynottony99]

I noticed all weekend that along with the Orange the Purple bus was running both directions past Jack Rabbit Run. Does anyone know why??

They're altering routes to confuse terrorists.

I was thinking they needed to do this.

What is Jack Rabbit Run?? Is that normally on the yellow??

If so, it's probably the new "automatic" bus system that causing the trouble. If I remember correctly, Purple Outpost, becomes Yellow Settlement, then reverses, so the sign is supposed to change, but sometimes doesn't.

There was a notice at the 1500 loop stop that the purple would also stop at the Meadows. According to a bus driver it was so the people staying in the cabins didn't have to take two buses to get to Meadows. Until IIRC 2005 there wre only two bus routes the old "Chip and Dale", "Boone and Crockett" and I can't remember what the Tram flags were back in the early 1980's. I always thought the three bus FW routes made no sense, but since it didn't effect me I'm a Yellow type guy I didn't worry about this.

That makes sense. Never thought about the extra connection needed for those out there in the cabins. I never even made it to a bus or bus stop on this trip.

Those cabin types don't count. Not like us real he man campers that rough it in our fifth wheels.

Actually the "real" campers are on the Purple route too....

The group camping area is over there. All those folks that stay in tents with no electricity.

So, does this mean you can now get to the pool from the 2000 loop with only 1 bus? That would be nice. I dont like cutting through group camping and the 900 loop.

One of these days, Norton.....One of these DAYS....POW...right to the moon!!!!

Dang, I always thought the purple route was for those of us that drank Crown Royal. That's why I always request that side of the campgrounds.

That's nice for the people in the cabin loops. Friends of ours complained how long it took to get to the campfire from their cabin when we met them there. We walked from the 1400 loop.

This might not confuse the terrorists, but it sure confuses me. I never got those colors right any how.
