BREEZEWOOD, Pa. — We had just gotten away from the indirect connection for Interstate 70 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike when I saw a familiar color scheme on a bus. As I got closer, I was kind of surprised to see that it was a D.C. Metrobus. Why it was approximately 128 miles away from Washington, D.C. I’m not sure.

If you were hoping there was a Metrobus route that services Breezewood, you are probably out of luck — the electronic sign said it was OUT OF SERVICE.

This still isn’t as unexpected as the time in the mid 1990s I saw some Metrorail cars on the back of trucks on I-81 in southern Pennsylvania.
