What you need to know as Megabus rolls out its new Michigan route this week

I wouldn't be surprised if they increased the frequency. This is the train route that originates in Pontiac and terminates in Chicago.

There are definite plans to do so. In fact the train cars already have been purchased and refurbished. The remaining hurdles are some track improvements so the additional trains don't bottleneck freight trains [[required of the freight railroads because they own the tracks), and funding for operations. I expect you'll see some occasional "event" trains by next year and regularly scheduled additional trains by 2014 or 2015.
