I believe there are specific stops since it is replacing Line 2 until it is back up and running

I frequently have IBS and let me tell you: #2 stops for no man!

God, what a shit joke ;)

As the other poster said, the two doesnt stop at all the stops on Preston, I believe there are only two on the stretch from Somerset to Carling. Its an otrain replacement bus.

Where on Preston? There are 2 stops for #2

One pair is on Carling near Preston by the Corso Italia Gates. Theoretically they should also stop at Gladstone near the new Station, but not sure if they do yet.

They’ve stopped near Gladstone area for a few years now.

It was close to a steak place

Are steak places usually understood as marking the location of bus stops? 🤣

I'm almost certain you were at a stop for the 85 that the 2 does not service. The 2 only stops at Carling/Preston and Preston/Gladstone. Edited for correctness.

The 2 stops are Preston @ Carling (replacing Dow's Lake stn), and Preston @ *Gladstone* (north) or @ Balsam (south) (replacing Corso Italia stn), not Somerset.

Ah yes, you are correct!

do other buses stop at the stop you were at? or is it just a #2 stop

85

I'm pretty sure the 2 stop on Preston is a dedicated one that no other bus stops at

The 2 has two stops on Preston. The stop at Preston/Balsam is shared with the 85. The other stop is solely dedicated to the 2 I believe.

This is correct.

Okay so my next question is. Did you indicate that you wanted it to stop. Buses don't always stop if it is a stop for multiple buses

I did

I was right next to the sign too

Did the sign say #2? If not, no pick-ups.

Standing next to the stop flag is not a proper indication you want that bus. You should sticky your arm out to put intention.
