This is from Greyhound to the alders.
I guess, at least they are starting to communicate with the alders, but is this what you want to hear?

However, you still can’t buy tickets without internet access and a credit card, there is still no pay phone or lockers or 24 hour facilities (think cup of coffee or a diet coke and a bag of chips) or ability to wait indoors or restrooms. Some basics most travelers expect and need.
It seems there is a long ways to go.
