The X38 from Sea Gate & In-Between


R62A 1991

Recommended Posts

Time to finish off the express buses before they raise the fare. The majority of these shots are MTA NYCT, but there are a few MTA Bus shots, not enough to justify a new thread. Let me start off by saying although I scheduled this perfectly, I should NEVER follow a schedule again. The 6 AM (3) was late, and there were mechanical problems on the (D). However, the B36's frequency saved me and got me to:

with 10 minutes to spare, in which I snapped these:

My B36 driver then called me over and warned me that I might be arrested. I played along, told him thanks, and got on my X38 and took these:

My neighborhood buses stop here too...I could've taken them.

That's an X29, deadheading to Stillwell. So they took the 4300s from Queens Village too...

Ouch...Midtown:

I love Super Expresses, even though they just say that because they take the FDR.

All your MTA NYCT Super Expresses in one place.

What a trip. I took it to Midtown. SRO, and its X28 counterpart had standees. I always sit next to interesting people who don't expect me to be taking express buses, so it was a good ride. Here's a video after the accident.

 

And a few bonuses:

And I have more to tackle over the week, so expect some more. Hope you enjoyed!

When do express bus fares go up--is it 6/28?
