O.N.E. Bus Company was able to run route 24 (Orange-Elizabeth) out of the farebox

Did they employ drivers a wage and fringe benefits package like those given to New Jersey Transit employees or did they pay crap wages? Did they maintain the buses to high standards* or did they cut corners and get "free" buses from the state to cover their capital costs? Did they maintain frequent service during off-peak hours that was reasonable, or did they magically disappear middays and after 7 PM? And did they have to cross subsidize less profitable services like NJT does in order to provide some semblance of state-wide service...

*IIRC, the Academy RTSes that I rode in Hoboken rode like crap compared to NJT's aged Flxible buses and those were crap compared to the ancient RTSes we had in Queens...
