Fixed routes

The fixed route service was originally made of three routes - Red Route, Blue Route and Green Route. As of January 1, 2010, the Green Route was canceled due to low ridership. The Red Route serves Benton Harbor, St. Joseph, St. Joseph Charter Township and Royalton Township. The Blue Route serves Benton Harbor and Benton Township. Both routes operate between 6:00 am – 10:00 pm on weekdays and 8:00 am – 10:00 pm on Saturdays. The Blue Route runs every half an hour, while the Red Route runs every hour. The regular fares are $1.00, and $0.50 for seniors and people with disabilities.

Transit connections

Red Route stops near the St. Joseph Amtrak station, which is served by Pere Marquette route. The route will drop off riders directly at the station on request and pick up riders if they call ahead of time.

The format is specific to Python, but independent of machine architecture issues (e.g., you can write a Python value to a file on a PC, transport the file to a Sun, and read it back there). Details of the format are undocumented on purpose; it may change between Python versions (although it rarely does). [1]This is not a general “persistence” module. For general persistence and transfer of Python objects through RPC calls, see the modules pickle and shelve. The marshal module exists mainly to support reading and writing the “pseudo-compiled” code for Python modules of .pyc files. Therefore, the Python maintainers reserve the right to modify the marshal format in backward incompatible ways should the need arise. If you’re serializing and de-serializing Python objects, use the pickle module instead – the...
