Bus was 1hr late from Newark. Other than that the other transfers and journey was fantastic. I enjoyed riding with greyhound for the first time

I was connecting a bus from Newark to Providence in New York. Because the bus was so late from Newark to New York, I missed the bus to Providence and my trip scheduled to the next day. This sucked!
