The late-night weekend bus of Tompkins Consolidated Area Transit, Inc that circles the Cornell campus and Collegetown “is great if you don’t expect it, but if you’re trying to catch it, it’s four minutes late and you think you’ve missed it,” said Daniel Baicker ’11.
To this, Jim Irvine, who drives the Route 92 bus Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, chuckled and said that he loves helping out lost students who don’t expect to see the bus drive up.
“When you see four girls walking barefoot up Thurston Ave. trying to wave you down, you can’t help but stop the bus to help them out,” Irvine said.
