Vamoose Bus Service
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vamoose Bus Service is a daily bus service providing rides between the Washington, D.C. metro area and New York City. The bus picks up passengers in Rosslyn, Virginia and Bethesda, Maryland in the Washington area, and near Penn Station in New York. At $25 a trip, the service provides a discount over other forms of transportation between the regions, including Amtrak and Greyhound Lines. However, unlike the similar Chinatown bus lines, Vamoose does not travel to either city's Chinatown.

[edit] Legal Proceedings
The buses previously served Tenleytown (near American University and Downtown Washington, D.C., but the company moved the stops outside the District of Columbia, after an injunction was filed by Washington Deluxe, a competing bus line.[1] As a result, Vamoose moved its service to Bethesda, Maryland and Arlington, Virginia as of August 2006.
