Hubs
Megabus service in the United States and Canada operates primarily as a hub-and-spoke model in the Midwest and as a network along the East Coast. Northeastern service uses New York City, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. as hub cities. There is a separate hub in Chicago, and a hub in Pittsburgh that allows connection from the Chicago routes to the east-coast routes by changing buses. A new hub opened in Atlanta in November 2011. Service was also operated from August 2007 until June 2008 from a hub in Los Angeles. As is the case with most Coach USA buses, all buses are licensed in Illinois, except for M22 Megabus units owned and operated by DATTCO, which are licensed in Connecticut (these units are identified with the DATTCO logo instead of the Coach USA logo).

Famous quotes containing the word hubs:
“He sent for lancewood to make the thills;
The crossbars were ash, from the straightest trees;
The panels of white-wood, that cuts like cheese,
But lasts like iron for things like these;
The hubs of logs from the “Settler’s ellum,”—
Last of its timber,—they couldn’t sell ‘em,”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
