QUOTE: Originally posted by oltmannd QUOTE: Originally posted by 88gta350 I would be highly surprised if this commuter run ever happened. Altoona is not a large town by any stretch of the imagination, and there can't be more than a handful of people that commute from there to Pittsburgh. A Johnstown or Greensburg run might make more sense, and maybe tack on a weekend run from Altoona for those that want to travel to the city for the weekend, but other than that there would be no demand for this service. Altoona has about 60,000 people. It's the largerst non-suburban city between H'burg and P'burg. I agree - small potatoes.
