<p>[quote user="Buslist"]</p> <p> </p> <div class="quote-header"> </div> <blockquote class="quote"> <div class="quote-user">Sam1</div> <div class="quote-content"> <p>In Melbourne, at least on the Green Line bus routes, which I rode to work in the mornings, the drivers made change. Can you imagine? The driver had a change box attached to the farebox. He was more than happy to make change; perhaps that does deserve a thank you. A driver for a private, competitive bus operator making change. What next?</p> <p>What a shocker for most of the operators in this country. In many instances they cannot even give a passenger decent directions on how or where to get off the bus. I saw it frequently in Dallas.</p> <div style="clear:both;"> </div> <p> </p> </div> </blockquote> <div class="quote-footer"> </div> <p> </p> <p>The Champaign/ Urbana Mass Transit District went to exact fare along with the rest of the industry in the early '70s, only to return to giving change in the mid '70s. To this day they will still break up to a $5 dollar bill before 7P.[/quote]</p> <p>Thanks for the info. This is the first time that I have heard of a transit agency in the U.S. giving change on a bus. </p>
