Do your best. * The B9's been rerouted via Avenue N. * The B82's been rerouted slightly via Avenue P->East 18th Street instead of staying on Kings Highway. * The B7's been cut back to Flatbush Avenue. * The B47's been rerouted via Avenue T and Fillmore Avenue. * The B100's been reroted via Avenue U and Avenue R.

Mysterious2train Posted October 9, 2011 Share #454 Posted October 9, 2011 You forgot B44 SBS The B7 and B82 running briefly on Avenue P has been in effect for a while now. I don't know how it came about. The re-routing of the B47 was mainly to fill the gap left by the B100. Hmmm... any favorite flavor in particular? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel Up Front Posted October 11, 2011 Share #462 Posted October 11, 2011 (edited) I rode 1700 on the N25 today.

Grand Concourse Posted October 11, 2011 Share #464 Posted October 11, 2011 5057 has been repainted. THe number plate at the back though wasn't repainted so the plate is black and the numbers are white just like the back. THe front numbers are a bit crooked and it doesn't have the MTA logo on it. I only wished I had my camera out to get pics of it. Looks so weird seeing a 'fresh' coated bus. 9644, saw it twice today. 1st one was heading towards KP. 2nd time I saw it layed up near Troy Av and Av N. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

checkmatechamp13 Posted October 12, 2011 Share #466 Posted October 12, 2011 So here's a rundown of my travels today: * Caught my normal S89 to school. Nothing special there. * Caught the S44 home. Again, nothing special there. * I had to pick up something at my brother's school, so I took the S94 and then walked over to the school. Then, I needed to go to an after-school activity at the YMCA, so I took the S61 to the S53. I asked for another transfer so I didn't run out of rides, but it turns out, I didn't need it (I'll explain below). Then I walked over to Forest Avenue and caught the S98. The farebox said "1 XFer OK" (I was surprised that S94->S61->S98 was allowed). Then I got to Richmond Avenue at the same time an S89 was supposed to show up, but apparently he was early or a no-show, so I had to wait for the 19:26 S59. He came in a little late, but he probably did it to avoid coming early at subsequent stops. The farebox was broken, but since I had a Student MetroCard, it didn't matter. In the meantime, an X10 arrived 3 minutes late, but from Via Garibaldi's description, they tend to come early, so again, he probably did it to avoid coming early at subsequent stops. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted October 12, 2011 Share #470 Posted October 12, 2011 Wasn't aware of that, guess it didn't look any different to me. Oh well, nontheless, it looks really good repainted now. Around the Junction area, I saw 5102 from Ulmer and that bus looked like crap. THose buses need to go to MJQ ASAP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRT Bronx Express Posted October 12, 2011 Share #472 Posted October 12, 2011 I remember seeing a 1989 Bx55 map on the bus stop that showed the 161 St branch many years ago. It was somewhere around the mid to late '90s, even though it no longer went to Yankee Stadium. I believe it was removed last decade. I also remember the Bx26 map that showed the Fordham Center branch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted October 15, 2011 Share #474 Posted October 15, 2011 Saw 9644 again on Thursday. It's just crazy, the bus is stalking me, lol. 5056 is repainted. 3597, still has the SC sticker on it and a Brooklyn bus map, but has been in service on the Q35 twice this week. First time I saw 3597, I thought the sign was wrong or that it might've been a SC fill in for the Q35, but no it really is at FR [if reported already, sorry i didn't have time to look thru all the bus moves]. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
