   Right. conklin is confusing *local transit* buses and intercity buses. OTOH,   
   (local) transit buses often do have bus shelters on street corners. Transit   
   buses (except at *major* stops, where they *often* do have "terminal   
   facilities"), rarely pick up or discharge more than a handful of people at a   
   time, and these people rarely have any luggage to speak of.
