What is the longest MTA train route?

What is the longest MTA route?

The A train. Yikes, that’s the MTA’s marathon runner, stretching a whopping 32.39 miles! From Inwood up there to Far Rockaway? That’s like going from my tiny apartment to, uh, well, another slightly bigger apartment… far, far away.

Think of it like this:

• It’s longer than, like, 1000 yellow cabs lined up bumper-to-bumper.
• In 2024, about 600,000 souls pack onto that thing daily, apparently. That’s like the entire population of Vermont crammed into metal tubes under the city. Eek.
• Longer than my patience waiting for the G train. That’s saying something.

It’s the kind of ride that makes you question your life choices. But hey, at least you get to see two ends of the city! (And maybe question your life choices twice. Just kidding… mostly.)

Which is the longest metro train route?

Shanghai Metro? Oh, that behemoth in China! Boasts 831 km and 508 stations. Like a really long, metal earthworm.

Imagine trying to decide which exit to take. Existential dread, perhaps? I’d get lost buying dumplings.

Beijing Subway is there too, somewhere in the urban jungle. Don’t know much tho!

The London Underground, ah, the Tube. Opened in 1863. A Victorian marvel. They call it the Tube—but I always thought it more like a giant, rattling, historical sausage.

More on the Shanghai Metro (because, frankly, it’s ridiculously long):

• Expansion: Seems it’s still expanding, like my waistline after the holidays.

• Lines: It’s got 20 lines. Twenty! That’s more lines than a Shakespearean sonnet. (Maybe.)

• Ridership: Carries millions daily. Makes my morning commute feel like a private jet.

• Comparison: Seriously, it’s longer than some countries are wide. I bet you could travel to small island nations in less time than it takes to travel across this metro.

What is the longest route in train sim world?

Okay, longest route… Train Sim World. Gotta remember that.

Horseshoe Curve! That’s it, right? I think it’s like… 83 miles? Is that right? Man, I feel old.

• Horseshoe Curve: Altoona – Johnstown – that’s the one.
• Around 83 miles (134 kilometers, wow kilometers!)

Freight! Lots of freight, I remember that clunking. Challenges tho.

Challenges, definitely. Keeps you busy. Ugh, busy.

• Freight operations.
• Pennsylvania scenery? Rolling hills, I think.

Pennsylvania, yeah. I think my uncle went there once. Wait, was it Ohio? Nevermind.

Which bus route is the longest?

The old London to Kolkata bus route wins it, historically speaking.

It was epic; imagine that trip now!

• Operated by Albert Travel, it spanned continents.
• The journey took roughly 50 days.
• It covered over 32,000 kilometers.

Sadly, things changed. Geopolitical instability made it impossible. I guess nothing lasts forever. A road trip through that many borders? Whew.

What is the longest distance traveled by bus?

Ormeño’s Lima-Rio route: 6,200 km. A measly distance.

Adventures Overland’s journey? 12,000 km. Epic.

Key Differences:

• Ormeño: established route, likely less adventurous.
• Adventures Overland: a singular, ambitious undertaking. Probably insane.

My Take: Forget Ormeño. That’s child’s play. Adventures Overland: that’s real grit. I’d do it. Maybe. Next year. Definitely need a better bus.

Additional Route Details (2024 Data):

• Ormeño route specifics vary. Check their website. Seriously. I’m busy.
• Adventures Overland route details: Look it up. They’ve likely updated their blog since last year. It’s always changing. Probably.
• Independent verification of both claims needed. Trust no one. Especially me.

What is the longest bus trip in the US?

Okay, buckle up, buttercup! The mother of all bus trips in the USA? It’s Greyhound’s (well, FlixBus’s now, I guess) Miami-to-Seattle saga.

Four days on a bus? That’s like, a really, really long family road trip where the scenery never, ever, changes. And your uncle keeps telling the same joke.

• Miles & Hours: This rolling adventure is somewhere between 88 and 100 hours. Think of it: more hours than it takes to binge-watch all of “Stranger Things,” twice.
• The Route: Miami to Seattle. From sunshine and retirees to… well, coffee and even more rain. Talk about a climate change commitment.
• Operator: Greyhound! (But like, the new Greyhound, owned by FlixBus). So, German efficiency meets questionable gas station snacks.
• For the Enthusiast: Only bus nerds do this for fun. Seriously, who needs sleep anyway?! My cat, Mr. Fluffernutter, wouldn’t tolerate this.

Forget “planes, trains, and automobiles.” This is just pure, unadulterated, bus. Wowza.

So why ride? Bragging rights, obviously. “Oh, you hiked the Appalachian Trail? I rode a bus for four days straight. In a seat.”

Don’t forget that this ride is basically your own personal choose-your-own-adventure novel, but instead of dragons, you’re battling questionable rest stop cuisine and a guy snoring like a walrus. Also, make sure to pack, like, everything. This ain’t no walk in the park. Bring your own entertainment because praying to the bus gods might get you nowhere.
