HRB   Thank you for sharing your COT experiences.

This was a procedure well developed in Pgh but not used
in too many other cities.

At Community Transit I developed a snow schedule to achieve
the same goals.  Normal round trip New Kensington to Pgh was
two and a half hours on 30 minute headway.  First snow schedule
was 3 hours round trip, second three and a half hours round trip.

We started a replacement bus at 9AM and 930AM southbound.

It worked and drivers really appreciated having the pressure taken
off them.  We had registering fare boxes and did not trade bses.
