NextStop Blog

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and NextStop is getting ready to change up Passenger Profiles for February. We’ll still profile riders from Missouri and Illinois, but we want to feature passengers who met on MetroBus or MetroLink and have since become a couple! Is that you?

Last year, we highlighted two couples who met on Metro, and the stories of these transit sweethearts could rival the latest romantic Hollywood blockbuster. Fate played a hand bringing together Tonya and Darryl together on the #30 Soulard back in October 2010. It didn’t take too long for both of them to notice each other. Ted and Amy met on a bus back in 1980 when they were students at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. With the help of a novel by William Faulkner, their transit love would blossom.

Have you found transit bliss? If you’re one of those lucky couples, or you know of a couple who met on board one of our transit vehicles, please let us know. Email me at [email protected] and we’ll get started.

And even if you haven’t found your special someone on Metro transit, let us know if you would like to be featured in a future Passenger Profile. We’re always looking for new stories to tell.
