S78 via Hylan

There's three consecutive buses running the S52 at this moment: 8217, 8218, and 8219.

It’s fair to say that their buses are in relatively good condition due to their stop-and-go nature as well as not having to travel through rough streets like the other boroughs. If if this is too off topic, I apologize.

I like that you guys are fighting for better service because this redesign is FAR from successful.

I see. I feel the and can pick up the slack, since the latter will be running every weekend.

Again, the issue with both of these proposals is that neither assists regular riders between 8 Av and Broadway Junction as they’re the ones being inconvienced. On another note, next month will be busy with shuttle buses.

Oh snap, I just realized that, but still, running s between 96 St and 2 Av does not do anything for riders looking to travel into the city.

That won’t work as the Eastern division stations cannot accommodate 600-foot trains. Hopefully, they’ll run the with 8-minute intervals at the very least. Never mind, I just misread.

For next month: Wakefield-bound service runs express from 3 Av-149 St to E 180 St; Split service: Oct 6-7 No service East of Utica Av: Oct 13-14 Reduced service North of 125 St: Oct 13-14, 20-21 No service South of Brooklyn Bridge; Local service in Manhattan: Oct 19-22 (Begins 9:45 PM Friday evening) Reduced service in Manhattan: Oct 6-7 No service south of Grand Central: Oct 20-21 No service West of Queensboro Plaza: Oct 6-8, 13-14*, 20-22, 27-29 *Ends at 10PM Sunday evening 42 Street operates overnight: Oct 6-8, 13-14, 20-22, 27-29 No service between Rockaway and Lefferts Boulevards: Oct 13-14 Uptown trains run express along CPW: Oct 6-8 Jamaica bound service runs via 53 St: Oct 6-8, 13-15, 20-22 No service East of Crescent St: Oct 6-7, 13-14, 20-21 No service between 8 Av and Broadway Junction: Oct 6-8, 13-15, 20-22, 27-29 Operates to 96 St to supplement the and : Oct 6-8, 13-15, 20-22, 27-29 No service between 96 St and Prospect Park: Oct 5-8, 12-15, 19-22 (Note: These changes begin 9:30 PM each Friday evening) No service south of 36 St, Brooklyn; No late night service: Oct 12-15, 19-22 Operates to supplement the : Oct 6-7, 13-14, 20-21, 27-28 There's sure to be more changes popping up as we get into October, so if any extras appear, please add them.

Alright folks, what were some of the last rides you remember catching on bus models that have been retired? I’ll start: 1996 Orion V: 671 on the Q32 and 184 (ex-bee line) on the Bx23 1997-98 RTS: 94xx on the B57 1999 Orion V: 6095 on the S40 and 6025 on the Q50 1999 Orion V CNG: 9899 on the Q66 2000 New Flyer C40LF CNG: 881 or 898 on the B16 2000 New Flyer D60HF: 1002 on the M15 2002 MCI D4500 (I know there’s still some of these running, but this is the last one I’ve caught so far): 2868 on the X42 2003 Orion 7 CNG: 7560 on the B43

As I’m waiting for the , an signed up to Metropolitan terminated at Broadway Junction. Any idea what that’s about?

This is nothing new as it happens every fall.

Fixed.

Those are the S91, S96, and S98. And I forgot these: S48: ARLINGTON HOLLAND AV S98: MARNRS HBR S54: ELTINGVILLE RICHMOND AV S59: HYLAN BL S89: ELTINGVILLE HYLAN BLVD

Since I’m bored, I’ve decided to list multiple bus routes with the same terminals (or very close to one another), but have different destination readings: B3: BERGEN BEACH 71 ST B41: BERGEN BEACH VETERANS AV B14: CROWN HTS UTICA AV B17: CROWN HTS EASTERN PKWY B35: SUNSET PARK 1 AV B70: SUNSET PARK 39 ST-1 AV

Even the R160s don’t like him.

There’s no reason my should have went local after Hoyt Schermerhorn even though there was a ahead and behind it. To add insult to injury, I was on-board an R32 with crappy A/C.

No need to get so worked up about it.

And as long as each yard has enough trains to make service, that’s ALL that matters.

Given how problematic they are, it’s best to keep them on the . The last thing we need to do is to run them on one of the busiest lines while CBTC fails every now and then.

Word. I thought the wouldn’t have any more as they started going to the .

Source?

The is not being extended. Period. The is only going to 96 St on weekends.

With the receiving increased service next year, the is not going back to 71 Ave. But, if they need more C/Rs, this is good as the list will move faster.

I’m not considering that they used to be the primary fleet on that line. And I know those sets are running, but I still don’t think they’ve officially been transferred.

I don’t think those are transfers just yet.
