I too, had the misfortune of taking a non-express bus trip in
the past.  At the time I was living in Easton, PA. and needed
to go to Harrisburg, which is about 90 miles (1 hr. 45 mins.
doing the speed limit.).  The first city we pulled into was
Allentown (about 15 miles) for a twenty minute rest stop.  It
only gets worse from there.

In defense of buses, however, I had several occasions to bus
from Easton to NYC.  Again, about 90 miles and 1 hr. 45 mins.
away.  That trip was an exprss and got me to the city in the
quickest, easiest, most restful manner, in which I ever made
the trip.

The moral, if you are going to take a bus, take an express if it
is available.  It *IS* worth the extra couple of bucks.  If you
have to take a local, be prepared for a **LONG, BORING** trip.

Remember, you meet some of the most interesting people on buses.
