heading to DC(megabus Hub), Philly(friend there), or NYC(destination)

Ive done a chinatown to chinatown (DC-NY) before, does it still exist?. and i know there used to be sketchy buses that run from Ral and Gboro to DC for like $20, do these still exist, where do they board?

i was just wondering if anybody was in the know about some of these rather unconventional methods of travel.

ive been scouring craigslist rideshare with a couple potentials...but im curious of other means.

Doesn't Megabus service Raleigh now?

8/24/2011 5:34:11 PM

yeah I thought Megabus is in Raleigh now

china town to china town still exists. there is also like an $8 bus in Arlington that goes to Penn station.

Amtrak = cheapest. but seriously. fuck trains.

How so? Usually you can fly cheaper than train tickets that I have found.

T-bone? I had him for calc. and when he came in with a broken arm, he swore it was from jumping off a moving train car..... never was sure whether to believe him or not.

Also, I know Skybus is shut down now, that's the Chinatown bus I took in the past. I thought Megabus ran from RAL as well.
