Many of these are available at some of the larger MBTA terminals (Like the Park St. misinformation boot, Forest Hills, etc. Also all busses are supposed to carry copies of their route schedules. I have also found that the MBTA employees who answer the info lines are reasonably helpful with schedules. The problem is that sometimes the driver may not be too familiar with his/her route, and one may get taken for an nteresting sight seeing tour :-) +-------------------------------------------------------------+ Jerry Feldman AOSG Mailstop: GSF1-1/K13 DTN:264-5863 Digital Equipment Corp.
