I want to ask to all members, on the bus today from Walmart I get on and after I board there is a spot where people place their stuff, groceries boxes strollers etc.(on your left when you walk in the front door) I place my big grocery bag nothing else was there at the time  there we get to the bus station it gets crowded then some dude comes and brings a kid and the stroller on(small plastic stroller) is shouting WHOSE BAG IS THIS 3X. I say it's mine and tell him to place it behind my bag. It's like he was mad he couldn't place his stroller in that spot, also what was he gonna do if I had another big bag in this spot or someone placed all their groceries there force em to move it?

Nothing new here. There are morons all over the place

@Future ENY OP u said the b84 dont need to go to brooklyn college because you have the b6 and b103 but niether of those bus go to gateway mall if you live in east  flatbush you have to pay 2fares just to go there thats 3 bus instead of just 2 but i do agree with you when you say the bus routes in east new york and cypress hills end at some odd places.

@Q43LTD how is the b14 going to casino far it is literally 7 block after crossbay blvd im not sending the b14 to the rockaway blvd ozone park A train station i am making the b14 continue on pitkin crossing over crossbay blvd  and run  with the Q11 on pitkin ave and go to the  aqueduct racetrack A train  station  and casino that is actually less time than going to rockaway blvd ozone park station.

@Yankees4life sendin the b84 to broadway junction is pointless there is the b83 already that  goes there you are goin to  have 2 buses that begin at the same place and end at the same place and if you are  planing on putting the b84 to run on  pennsylvania ave that is going to be 3 buses going the same place the b20 and b84 and b83. Sendin it to brooklyn college would at least serve underserved street  that no bus runs on like foster ave after kingshwy and ave D after remsen ave and east flatbush would not have a 2 fare zone to go to gateway.

@B35 via Church i agree with you on having the b20 go to lefferts blvd air train station because the b20 end point is  no where significant and it can also do the stops that the b15 doesnt do like crossbay blvd and A train station on the north conduit ave 

 

Don't have to tell you again. AVE H is full along with ALL of the Junction. We have too many routes ending there. B11, Q35, B103 end there already. That part of junction is filled with buses deadheading/ending-beginning routes.

No need for the B84 to go all the way there. The current B84 for the B6 will take you to Junction with ease.

B84 to Brooklyn College? No thanks. We have enough routes ending there. I think I'll stick to my B84 to Broadway Junction proposal although I do like the idea of sending it to Rockaway Parkway Station. Easy connection to the and a multitude of other routes

Meant to post this like 2 weeks ago, but I forgot, and I was preparing for a short vacation.

Spotted 3015-3019 heading up to 207th Street around 10pm-ish.

They're coming...

Well there's blue construction wall up at Chambers Street on the which can mean only one thing:  pigs can fly

IT'S HAPPENING

The B84 is such a short route. I think it can extend to at least Broadway Junction Station...

That's the R62/A.

Whoops. I mixed up my trains.

Saying that tho, the R68s take me back to old Brighton and trains and also the current Brighton Trains. Always taking those to Coney Island...

Meh. I don't mind the R68s. They bring back a lot of memories seeing them all the time on the and .

Only on occasion I can see them on the , tho...

Hold on, the B6 doesn't use the bus-only (one-way) portion of Glenwood Road? That's so stupid.

The maps have them using the portion. I imagine they head into the station and drive out left to Rockaway Parkway?

You got that right, and it still doesn't.

Yeah, that route needs help. Maybe get Limited service over there...

With all the SBS routes in Brooklyn, they need to start changing the map colors on the routes colored in dark blue that are not SBS. It's starting to look like mess in Northern Brooklyn, and its already one SE Brooklyn. Also, IDK why they did not separate the B82 local and SBS like they did for the B46. That contributes even more to all the dark blue through the area.

They got lazy it seems and rushed an edit in on the maps.

Easy if you live along the route. If not, that would entail two transfers that would cost riders another $2.75 going in one direction. Better to have it run via the Belt Pkwy, and modifying the pkwy to have HOV lanes for them.

 

The purpose of the B82 extension to Gateway is to make it easier for those who live in Southern Brooklyn to get to that mall with one or two buses. Having people transfer from their origin bus route (such as the B74) to the B82 then to the B83 will cost them another $2.75. That plan saves the riders money, which could then be used for their shopping adventures there.

That's too bad for them. You can't get ANOTHER bus on Belt Parkway especially with that traffic. Those people better think of alternative routes quick if they don't want to pay another 2.75. Not my problem. And certainly not worth the 's time in extending a route for those people.

Yeah, B82SBS to the mall? That's asking for trouble traffic wise. If people want the mall, they can transfer to the B83

It has arrived!!

Correction. They do have enough. The remaining buses on EN's delivery list are for local service from what I am being told.

It only went to the vender to get 7650, which was actually 2 weeks ago now.

Yeah, they have enough. Even if they need more, they can just borrow from FB. But the orders were sufficient it seems

All of the exact unit's numbers I forgot about but here they are

1997-98 RTS: B47 and B6 Limited

1999 Orion 5 CNG: B103

1999 Orion 5 Diesel: B47, B60, and Q20A

1999-2000 C40LF: B8 and B35

2000 D60HF: M101 Limited

2003 Orion 7 CNG: B100 and B103 (Funny enough I was actually by Flatbush Junction at around the same time someone took a video of one on it's second to last day of service)

There are too many to list so I won't even bother

You can't say two routes on 7th Avenue is overkill because no extra service was provided. By moving the B69 to 7th Avenue to accompany the B67, they cut B67 service in half destroying that route. They figured people would take which ever bus came first to get to Downtown Brooklyn. How many along 7th Avenue actually use the B69 for Downtown Brooklyn. My guess would be very few. I agree that they should return the former service to 8th Avenue and Prospect Park West. No one lines the new routing except the MTA because it means fewer route miles. 

That's pretty insane they did that and sent a few more B67s to the Navy Yard. It makes no sense there. But then again, it is the : They never make sense

I'm not too sure if anybody thought about this but having 2 bus routes running along 7th ave (B67/69) is a bit overkill. I would prefer that the B69 returned to its original routing pre-2010. It makes no sense for it to go straight on 7th ave, right on Flatbush, and then to that circle of death that is Grand Army Plaza to Vanderbuilt. The routing on 8th Ave and Prospect Park W made sense to me, IMO

Any delivered subway car takes time to hit revenue service. You can’t just put the train in service right away off the flatbed truck. They have to do through testing and inspection before hitting revenue service. Give it time. 

Yeah, I'm not the biggest fan of the R32s and R46s but they'll have to stay for now. Patience is key. Soon, the s will have the NTTs. Not now, tho
