Grand Concourse Posted November 11, 2009 Share #11 Posted November 11, 2009 It would be interesting to see O5's back on the Q38 again, but i thought the idea was for CP to acquire all the express lines from LGA? Why is CP taking on more local lines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted November 11, 2009 Share #12 Posted November 11, 2009 I've been hearing the same news as well, the Q19, 38 and the QM12 are supposed to be going to College Point. Preview, anyone? ....dont got one for the 38....yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cait Sith Posted November 11, 2009 Share #21 Posted November 11, 2009 Lmao, what's wrong? Don't like Flushing? He prefers the Q19 over the Q38 lol. Though I wish they sent over a route thats different. The Q38 is technically a loop route, they should have sent something over like the Q69 or one of the airport routes out of LGA. But thats just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aemoreira81 Posted November 11, 2009 Share #22 Posted November 11, 2009 Excuse me sir, but what is the reasoning behind this The reasoning would be that, if possible, a route should have its last runs going away from a business district and to a residential area. For the Q19, that would mean that common sense dictates that the last run be away from Flushing to Astoria---meaning that the deadhead would be longer to CP, which is why the Q102-Q104 were moved to LGA in the first place and why the Q101 should (but isn't for some odd reason) there.

But, as per lgaunion.com several runs begin/end in Flushing and you could always rearrange the runs. Plus LaGuardia Depot does not have room to handle the Q102, Q103, and Q104 which is MUCH more than 20 added weekday runs. But they lost only 20 weekday runs with the QM10 and QM11. Plus CP is much larger so it could handle more routes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q101viaSteinway Posted November 11, 2009 Share #25 Posted November 11, 2009 If LGA lost all of its express routes, it could fit them. Not even close because you need space for the weekend runs. Currently, none of the LaGuardia routes have weekend service yet thhose routes have weekend service. Plus, LaGuardia drivers were pissed off that they were going to lose their express routes to the point that a poster on jerryswebsite.info who is also a QM24 Downtown B/O called local passengers "scums of the earth" and that he did not want to deal with them, just to give you the level of tempers. LaGuardia drivers even cut off CP Drivers over Seniority and the route swaps. Luckily, an insider broke a deal and avoided the loss of the LaGuardia express routes. Given that the Q19 and Q38 are close to CP Depot. Closer than the QM12, QM22, or QM24. But these are just rumors like everything else in this hobby as well as any other hobby.
