The Metropolitan New York Bus Association (MNYBA) welcomes fellow ERA members on a visit to Baltimore, the “Charm City,” where there is much to observe in the transportation field. We plan to be guests of the Charm City Circulator, a relatively new company that specializes in sightseeing (they have Designline buses). Next, we plan to go to Baltimore MTA’s large Washington Boulevard bus facility where samples of the entire MTA fleet may be observed. The final stop is at the Baltimore Streetcar Museum — one of the finest in the country — where local historical vehicles as well as rides on cars from Philadelphia and Newark will be available. There is a great bookstore!
Various Baltimore historic buses may appear at any time during our trip.
Lunch will be on your own at the food court of the White Marsh Mall. A buffet dinner will be at the Golden Corral restaurant in Elkton. Dinner with tip and museum admission are included in the total fare for this trip. Please plan to sign up for this all-day excursion to a great and photogenic city! We plan to return to Metropark at 10 PM and New York at 10:45 PM.
Participants may depart from either Times Square or Metropark. You will need to mark your desired boarding stop on the order form.
Times Square | 8:00 AM Stop #1 meets on 8th Avenue between 40th and 41st Streets, in front of the New York Times building. We will be leaving at 8:00 sharp!
Metropark | 8:40 AM Stop #2 meets at the Metropark NJT/Amtrak station in Iselin, New Jersey. There is all-day paid parking. We will be leaving at 8:40 sharp!
The ticket price of $90 per person includes the $69 bus fare, $5 museum admission and $16 dinner. MNYBA trips usually run close to capacity, so register early to avoid disappointment. No tickets will be sent, and no refunds are possible. We go rain or shine, so please be on time so that you don’t miss the bus. For more information, write [email protected]
