Vamoose Gets the Boot

Due to red tape, the Vamoose bus, which Bostonist had written about recently, is no longer allowed to run from Cambridge to New York City.

Vamoose didn't get a jitney license that lets them pick up and drop off passengers, the Crimson reports. This is such a letdown when it comes to cheap buses, especially now that the Peter Pan drivers are earning a reputation for douchebaggery. Vamoose was even supposed to have wireless.

The Vamoose logo currently reads "More Bang for Your Buck--No Bull." That logo has particular resonance now that the home page carries the following bright-red announcement: "Bus Service Between NYC & Cambridge Mass is temporarily suspended until certain issues within the city of Cambridge are resolved."

So, when it comes to cheap trips, remember that Fung Wah is always there for you.
