No it's not. The Queens Center Mall is west of Woodhaven Blvd. The 59 starts & ends on Queens Blvd at Junction Blvd near where Alexander's used to be.

queens center mall is up by woodhaven i think the mall you are refering to there is the rego park center and queens place

It isn't? I always considered the whole stretch to be the same area.

Nah fam... Queens center mall is where the Q11, Q21, and Q52 make their last dropoffs at (right in front of the mall, on QB at Woodhaven)

 

The Q59 last stop is on the other side of the LIE, over there on QB/Junction (westbound service road of Queens blvd).... That mall over there is the Rego Park Center, not Queens Center mall...

 

I used to get confused b/w Rego Park Center, Queens Center mall, and Queens Place mall also.....

Yeh, Queens center mall is up by woodhaven....

 

The mall over there by the Q59 is the rego park ctr, not queens place....

Traveling eastbound on QB, you hit queens place, then queens center, then rego park ctr....

 

You'll see people constantly walking b/w queens place & queens ctr. mall..... You seldom see people walking from either one of those 2 malls to rego park ctr.....

During the holiday season though (thanksgiving - new year's), there's a free shuttle bus connecting the two shopping centers, and it gets absolutely packed.

 

As for possibly fixing the 59's layover spot, I wonder if buses could turn onto Junction and lay over by the first stop of the Q72, as there's much more room there. Buses would make a left onto 62 Drive and resume their regular route.

I was just in Bay Ridge last Saturday along Shore Road... Love the houses down there... They scream luxury, elegance and class esp in the 70's... Took the X27 back to the city down by 99th and Shore Road. Got a Prevost of course.  :D

987? 987 is oos @ Zerega and it has been here for about 2 weeks. No farebox, no radio, all inner cabinets scavenged, and it's about to be officially scrapped.

I believe you saw 468. This afternoon, I saw it at Knapp Street and it went out of service right there at around 5PM.

When 4261 pulled off from Hylan Blvd & Clove Road, it made a loud screech noise that pierced my ears from across the street, and some gray/black smoke came from the tailpipe...then it was roaring soo loud down Hylan Blvd.

Probably the fan belt screeching

Woahwoahwoah regents express from Forest Hills High School to Brooklyn? With old C40s? 

 

FOAM! But they only let you on school trippers if you have a student Metro right?

Anybody can ride the school trippers, but the B/O's strongly suggest non students DON'T ride considering how rowdy it can get on school trippers.
