SubBus

The 4800s were out doing their thing in BK yesterday. Especially on the / routes. Also got to see 9127 on the , it was weird seeing a bus that's not an Orion VII on that route.

B81: What if this route go across Beverly Rd instead of turning down Flatbush towards the junction? Possibly use the old terminal at the Brooklyn Terminal Market...

Rode the original set today. They turned on the "Doors open" feature on that set...

According to MTA.info, the QBR was updated as of Tuesday, 1-23-24... I didn't notice anything usual....

As you should, I don't blame you one bit...😉

The "smoke detector" or lack thereof is pretty much the reason why the R211Ts cannot operate on CPW and Fulton St Express in passenger service....

There was up to 6 sets of R211A's on the yesterday. Currently three sets are running around on the midnight... No sight of the R211Ts as of now....

Now there are videos of person(s) surfing on the LIRR....

The proposed B5 will terminate at Gateway Center and the B103 is proposed to terminate at New Lots IRT....

No, it's on Village Ave and Elmont, north of Dutch Broadway....

Lol, we know the is the king of Lexington Ave. Wait your turn, sir

Lol.... I hear the northbound s all the time @ 50-8 asking for proper ID before proceeding... BTW, good for you. You definitely earned it...

Thats it. Thanks bro. Yeah, I see that the going to end by the strip mall with the bowling alley... A couple more minor comments: : Rerouted to New Lots Ave station. I'm feeling this move. However, space under the el is going to be tight with the , , and the proposed all terminating there... : Why change the terminal in Cambria Heights?? If anything, extend the proposed Q51 to the current terminal.... Also was confused by the flip flop with the in the previous draft... : I'm with the masses here about the Fordham extension, definitely not needed. The current Bronx section alone can be its own route...

I'll comment on the routes I'm familiar with... : Will continue to put that work in at JFK : Nimbys in Elmont? I forgot the name of that immediate subsection over there .... : One of the short turns becomes permanent. None of that mess. I like that they kept the extension in Rosedale (Q86) : Cool, buy maybe an extension to Cypress Hill to maintain the connection to the ... : Strictly Lefferts vibes : Throwback to the B22 days : Finally an extension to 147th and beyond. Maybe coming out of JFK Depot? : No more overnight service to Queens Village LIRR : Full time to Green Acres? I guess NYPD wants all that space on Sunrise Hwy(Rosedale LIRR). I think that Caldor at Green Acres is mentioned as a stop being removed 😂... : Floral Park? Hmmm.... : According to the maps, it's still goes to Nassau County... : Getting kicked out for the Q51, which I'm glad that there will be some type of xtown service in that part of the borough(Linden Blvd). /: Might be petty here, but let the 113 be the main Far Rockaway service and the 114 be the main Guy R Brewer service. No need for 115 nomenclature...

It was supposed to start last month, but obviously that didn't happen..... As far as the reasoning, I don't know...

Rumor is that it was vandalism

Welcome and enjoy!!! Maybe I'll hear your voice in passing...

What do you think of the proposed B27? I think it's the modern version of the B75 that goes west towards Red Hook...(B77)

Correct, there was one set (original pilot set) that ran yesterday. The other 5-6 sets are temporarily sidelined.... The original set did have that issue resolved, hence being out on the road. As you and others have mentioned, there was a slight car shortage on the / lines yesterday. Didn't help that a couple of trains went out of service around the same time...

According to mta.info, the Brooklyn Bus Redesign was updated on October 5th, but didn't notice any changes....

The 211T will be testing in passenger service soon.....

This. So its kinda like the will be taking over the E.80th Branch... Speaking of the redesign, I thought the would have taken over the northern portion. Of course with a slight diversion to serve the Utica Ave / station....

As was previously mentioned, the Q78 southern terminus will help bring in employees to the local business in the area. Itll bring in both employees and workers to the DMV.... Also the Q78 is proposed to serve the "discontinued southern terminus" on the Q77 ....

Well the weekend shenanigans on the continues. This time a little better, as there was only 3 N/B buses between Clarendon and Snyder.... Also spotted 3500 at Gateway Center Mall in Brooklyn...
