In public transport, a request stop, flag stop, or whistle stop describes a stop or station at which trains or buses stop only on request; that is, only if there are passengers to be picked up or dropped off. In this way, ill-frequented stops can be incorporated into a route without introducing unnecessary delay.
Vehicles may also save fuel by continuing through a station when there is no need to stop.
There may not always be a significant savings on time if there is no one to pick up because vehicles going past a request stop may need to slow down enough to be able to stop if there are passengers waiting. Request stops may also introduce extra travel time variability and increase the need for schedule padding.
Implementations
The methods by which transit vehicles are notified that there are passengers waiting to be picked up at a request stop vary by transit system and by route.
Local transport
Most local, inner-city bus operations operate almost all of their stops as request stops, even if there is almost always a passenger boarding or alighting. To distinguish stops that are served on every trip, these are usually called stations and they are most often at the terminals of a route. Such stops are often also used as timepoints.
Whistle Stop is a jazz studio album by Kenny Dorham, featuring performances by acclaimed musicians Hank Mobley, Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones. It was recorded in January 1961 at Van Gelder Studio, in Englewood Cliffs, and was originally released on Blue Note Records as BST 84063 and BLP 4063. "In 1975", Blumenthal states in the CD liner notes, "five British critics picked Whistle Stop as one of 200 albums that belonged in a basic library of jazz recorded after World War II".
Notes about the album tracks
"Philly Twist" is dedicated to Philly Joe Jones. Kenny added "There is also the play on words with filly, a young horse."
"Buffalo" tries to portrait a buffalo in action, whilst "Sunset" tries to represent the feeling of an imaginary sunset. "Whistle Stop" is an attempt to depict a train in motion. About "Sunrise in Mexico", Dorham says: "The skies down there", in Mexico, "are low and everything looks different". "Windmill" talks about an old girlfriend of all of us, who can live by the windmill. Dorham explains that "a windmill, a weathered, gray-wood affair, is represented in the last four bars of the track".
"Dorham's Epitaph" was intended by Dorham to be a sort of musical epitaph, an "identifying song".
The Cheers were an Americanrock and roll vocal group, that had a string of hits in the mid-1950s starting with "(Bazoom) I Need Your Lovin'." which hit number three on the U.S.chart in 1954. This was the first hit written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller to chart on the Pop charts in the United States, and was one of the first rock and roll hits by a white group (after The Crew Cuts and Bill Haley and the Comets). The following year, they followed it up with "Black Denim Trousers and Motorcycle Boots" (also written by Leiber and Stoller), a song about a wild-living leather-jacketed motorcyclist, which went to number six on the charts. The Cheers members included Bert Convy (1933—1991) who would later be the host of Tattletales, Super Password, Win, Lose or Draw and 3rd Degree, Sue Allen and Gil Garfield (1933—2011). Leiber and Stoller wrote and produced 'Chicken' (1955) for The Cheers, parodying the central sequence from James Dean's film Rebel Without a Cause.

Conversa é melhor do que piada.
Exercício é melhor do que cirurgia.
Humor é melhor do que rancor.
Amigos são melhores do que gente influente.
Economia é melhor do que dívida.
Pergunta é melhor do que dúvida.
Sonhar é melhor do que nada!
Acredite nos seus sonhos, porque não há nada mais
limpo, mais honesto, mas original e natural do que algo que
brota da fé do seu próprio coração...Se Deus te concedeu
a beleza do sonho é porque ele sabe que você
consegue realizá-lo.
Lembre que o Céu azul é o telhado do mundo inteiro.
E que Deus com sua infinita bondade
te vigia a todo tempo entre as nuvens do Universo...
Sou pessoa de dentro pra fora.
Minha beleza está na minha essência e no meu caráter.
Acredito em sonhos, não em utopia. Mas quando sonho, sonho alto.
Estou aqui é pra viver, cair, aprender,...

He wore black denim trousers and motorcycle boots And a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back He had a hopped-up 'cicle that took off like a gun That fool was the terror of Highway 101 Well, he never washed his face and he never combed his hair He had axle grease imbedded underneath his fingernails On the muscle of his arm was a red tattoo A picture of a heart saying "Mother, I love you" He had a pretty girlfriend by the name of Mary Lou But he treated her just like he treated all the rest And everybody pitied her and everybody knew He loved that doggone motorcycle best He wore black denim trousers and motorcycle boots And a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back He had a hopped-up 'cicle that took off like a gun That fool was the terror of Highway 101
